Our travels would take us on Hawaiian Airlines service between the Hawaiian Islands as we travelled from Honolulu on Oahu over to Poipu on Kauai. As one of the sole major carriers operating the route between the two islands, you’re likely to fly Hawaiian Airlines if you travel by air between the islands. Our flight today would take us on their unusual Boeing 717 – 200 series jet in first class for… Read More
Hawaiian Airlines operates a substantial international route network from it’s home base at Honolulu Daniel K Inouye International Airport.

While you won’t be blown away by this particular space, it did offer a friendly environment to hang out in as an… Read More
After arriving into town on the United Airlines Island Hopper marathon day, I needed a one night stay at a hotel before my returning flight back to Honolulu. Since I had left my wife behind in Hawaii, I didn’t get the opportunity to check out Guam in the short time that I was there. I ended up at the Sheraton Laguna Guam Resort for a brief thirteen hour stay. I would end… Read More
