They have the most convenient and frequent flights from and to most destinations, despite it may not be the most cost efficient option, their local staff, flight attendants, and captains are friendly.

Well we are on our way back home. I always preferred Hawaiian Airlines to Alaskan but now they took…read moreover. I knew it would change. Hawaiian was the last airline to feed you on coach. Now that is gone. No more hot food for free. It's a sad state but that's how it goes. Not the great service it used to be. Boarding announcements were fine and the gate and boarding was pretty smooth. The place was pretty empty but I couldn't get a first class set. Those were all taken and the premium too. The rows across from me were empty. Other people slept in them throughout the flight. The seats are horrible now. My butt hurt both coming and going home. They are not as padded as the old ones. Cheaper and less padding. yuck. I think I have to get one of those pads that inflate to help my butt. heheh. This time the flight attendant wasn't going to give my wife and I a full can of POG. but then he said ok. Kind of weird with less passengers on the flight you think it would be stocked enough. Oh well always looking to cut prices even though we are paying bigger prices. I know they are slowly painting all the Hawaiian planes and soon Hawaiian will be gone totally. The end of another era.

I finally made it to my #900 and am going to Yelp my review for Southwest Airlines. Everyone knows…read morehow much I love SW, my favorite airlines. I am the Queen of SW as my co-workers states. Thank you, for making it possible for me and my soulmate, to get away for the day or the weekends to the neighbor island. Competition is so good! Never would have done it if SW wasn't doing business on the islands. Since then I was able to travel to Kauai many times. Grateful I get to visit the island we spent our honeymoon, 27+ years ago. I booked a bunch of flights during Southwest Airlines' Birthday sale back in June. Gone are the super low fares of $29. / $39. flights, which I need to catch when it does happen again but happy I was able to take advantage of it. This recent trip to Kauai for the weekend was so nice and a much needed get away. Everything was great, from getting off the plane to checking in the next day. Remember to check in 24 hours before your flight. SW boards by groups, A.B.C., A-list if you qualify and or want to pay extra. After A group, military and family with kids. then B and C. & 2 free check in luggage. Since it is only 25 min. flight, from LIH-HNL, we only get water service. This trip I decided to check in one luggage last minute due to our sauces, liquid. Checking in my bag was quick and simple, I printed my lug tag via the kiosk and gave it to the CSA. You can also check in your bags on line when you check in, then print the bag tags at the kiosk. So simple! During my recent October flight, when it was time to board, the scanner wasn't working but the staff worked together and checked everyone in manually without a problem. I don't want to sound Bias because Southwest is my favorite airlines but the many times I am on a SW flight I have no problems or complaints. I am truly grateful. I am happy I get to visit all my favorites restaurant on Kauai once I get off the plane ( Tip Top, Hamura, Deli Bread Connection). I need my saimin fix monthly. LUV Southwest, recommend by me & I can't wait for my next getaway! Happy Eating and traveling, live love life to the fullest. Happy #900 Yelp review!!

I flew Southwest for the first time in years and it was just okay…read more I purchased one of the best seats but didn't feel like it was worth the extra cost. A little extra legroom was really all it was and to be fair that's all they advertised for the $750 one hour and 5 minute flight. The staff were not impressive and a little smile would have been nice from the staff but that's the employee not the airline. I did like the snacks, lol If it's a non stop flight I would fly with them again but I would not spend the extra money for the better seat.

This is probably one of the best and easiest airports I've been through. I live next to Long Beach,…read moreand that's usually my go-to when I need an easy airport to fly in and out of, but Lihue is definitely a close second. My only real complaint would be going through security. It was very hot--they had fans, but with the humidity in Hawaii, it still felt intense. Once you get into the terminals, though, there's air-conditioning, and it honestly feels like a relief if you're not used to that kind of humidity. The staff was very friendly, and the airport itself was easy to maneuver. I also found it simple to grab a shuttle to and from getting a rental car. Plus, there's a Starbucks located inside, which was convenient while waiting. The bathrooms were also clean, which I really appreciate--especially when you're traveling. Another win: there were plenty of places to plug in and charge my computer before we took off, which made the wait a lot easier. The only other thing I wish there were more of: food options. It seemed like there was really only Starbucks and one other restaurant. Prices were pretty high too--like $8 for a spam musubi and close to $10 for a Costco hotdog. If you might have a wait before boarding, I'd recommend bringing snacks or your own food. Overall, it's a smooth, user-friendly airport--just plan ahead for the heat at security and limited food options.

Was super pleased with our flight from Ligue to San Diego. We are just about to land…read more First time I heard all cross body bags must be stowed for take off and landing. Unable to charge cell phone cuz didn't have the proper charger so very glad I powered up my power bank and brought it along. Luckily we got seats in row 2. The flight attendant was very polite, pleasant and worked hard ALL flight serving drinks, mixed snack(tasty),meal, dessert(guava cheesecake-perfectly delicious and just the right size) and another snack before landing single handedly. Please give her a raise. We had a choice of cheeseburger, short ribs or chicken. Accompanied with a roll, salad, lomi salmon, and a cooked veggie. Hand strength prevented me from engaging recline button. Old fashioned type foot rest. Wide seats up front but for some reason my derrière felt like it needed more padding which is strange cuz I have my own natural supply. We were given pretty blankets to use but no pillows. I found it interesting that most passengers up front were up on their lap tops and watching movies. Their free WiFi allows you to catch your accounts of Netflix, prime, Disney, etc. Smooth flight but announcement was made cleaning up cabin early due to some turbulence upon landing. One thing I found strange that hubs pointed out was we had a choice of water, pig, mimosa once seated served in Dixie type paper cups. The other beverages were in glass cups. Glad we chose to go from Honolulu to Lihue to catch this flight to San Diego. Good flight. Mahalo. Coming in for a landing. Over and out.

Nothing beats my…read morefirst flight into Hawaii on Hawaiian Airlines where they provide free snacks, meal, and complimentary pour of Kauai's Koloa Rum. My husband, and I were definitely disappointed at the lack of in-flight complimentary meal for a 5+ hour flight both ways. They offer limited snacks - a pack of two Biscoff cookies, or salted pretzel mix, and water, soda, juice, tea or coffee. Other things are available for purchase, however the options are extremely limited. We purchased a cheese board for 10 dollars, and they only had enough sparkling wine for my first in-flight beverage on the way there. On the way back, we were told that the return flight had only been provided two sparkling wines for the whole flight, so I ordered red instead. They had no more cheese plates for the return flight, so the only item available for purchase was a 5 dollar can of mini Cool Ranch Doritos. Because we knew how limited their menu was, my husband and I made sure to pick up some spam musubi before our flight home, which was a great idea because we got into LAX at about 10:30 PM. I was also disappointed they had me check my carry-on even though it fit in the their luggage sizer on the way to the Big Island. The staff who worked both flights were friendly, and helpful, but American Airlines was otherwise a disappointment.
