    The best tip is... Get here early! There's always gonna be a hella long line waiting for check in and ticketing!
    Gabriel T.

    I don't travel much to the motherland but whenever I do, I go to PAL, Philippine Airlines. It's not like I have much of a choice right? Since Hawaiian Airlines did away for with their service recently. I guess providing flight services to the single most largest ethnic group here in Hawaii isn't that good for them for whatever reasons. Nonetheless, the best tip is to try your best to get to check in early! There's always guarantee going to be a hella long line! That's pretty much for most international flights as well. If you have balikbayan boxes, try get a porter for "valet service," they will serve you all the way up to check in. Don't forget to tip them. Or you can just do it yourself and get a cart which is about 4 bucks I think. I always like to book online because you can do web check in and makes the process just a little bit more smoother and convenient. As far as the in flight experience goes, it's good overall. It's pretty much a 10 to 11 hour direct flight to Manila, NAIA (Ninoy Aquino International Airport). For some reason, I think it's a bit faster going back home but it's still about 10 hours roughly. They give you two meals during the flight and your experience is always dependent on where you sit, the types of people who you have during the flight, the kinds of attendants you have, the movie that they show, and many other factors. I am sure this is pretty much relevant to other airlines as well. Nonetheless, regardless of the how the flight goes, I always like traveling with PAL because of the excitement and feeling of going and spending time with my family and relatives in the Philippines :)

    The new set up in the business class is not as good as the old one. The older seats has that pod like seating that has bigger space when the seat is reclined all the flat. With the new seating, i felt like I was on top of a table and on display. Would be nice to have more privacy if you choose to sleep during the flight. But service is top notch. The Filipino hospitality is always great. The food may need some improvements and maybe change it up every month. I have been eating prawns every time I fly. I love the ice cream though. Always a highlight of my meal. Breakfast omelette also needs to be fixed. Maybe offer some authentic Filipino breakfast as an option. Priority tags on the luggages doesn't mean anything because my luggages always comes out last. There should be overnight kit for each gender. The l'occitane is too feminine.

    (Traveled 04/30/26 TH @ 8:50pm and many times before): This time, I was returning to the…read moresouthwest-esque from Hawai'i, but not at a very friendly price! I recently flew one-way with Southwest Airlines from Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL) Terminal 2 to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). They had been my favorite domestic carrier for years (I wished they flew internationally!) until Alaska Airlines dethroned them with more routes. Southwest Airlines cornered the southwest and west coast air traffic markets, respectively, and have flown them for business and pleasure. Did this airline still rule the southwest skies!? PURCHASE(S) One-Way Wanna-Get-Away Airfare ($253.10): Nowadays, I booked one-way flights because I usually had more flexibility when I needed to return. However, in this particular case, I needed to be back in Los Angeles for a work event the next afternoon. Since I booked the flight less than three weeks before its departure, I was basically screwed for domestic air travel during the medium season (I returned right after the spring break window). On a red-eye direct flight that arrived in Los Angeles around 5:30am the next morning, it allowed me enough time to get home, get ready, and get to my work event. Checked Luggage (Varied; N/A this instance): This once FREE amenity has since been removed and now was a paid expense. I traveled very light, especially for a quick trip such as this, so I only had a carry-on and backpack. FLIGHT EXPERIENCE ~Check-in: I checked-in online 24-hours prior (Group 3), had my QR code boarding pass on their app, and traveled with only a carryon and backpack, so I was ready to go! I had Global Entry & TSA PreCheck, so my time with security checkpoints and the necessary TSA pleasantries was efficient and minimal. When it was time, passengers were queued-up in order of their boarding group (i.e. A/B/C). The flight felt like it arrived shortly after it departed. ~Seat(s): 27A Window - Come on, it was the same sardine can like all airplanes these days. Recently, Southwest Airlines started assigning seats, so it was no longer a free-for-all once you boarded the plane. I always favored a window seat towards the back of the plane close to the restroom and snacks. I was lucky enough to almost get exactly that! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=72&select=mPgY2GS6Z8NBlgeqkY9tkw ~In-flight Meals (Varied; FREE this instance): I opted for my normal Seagram's Ginger Ale and this time a bag of almonds https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=72&select=5-89IYcr8bJRpTt-GoMSwg on Southwest Airlines that I loved. ~Lavatory: I'd done my business at the terminal before we left, so I had no idea of the condition of the restroom closest to me. ~Service & Amenities: All uniformly-dressed flight attendants were adequate and spoke perfect English. None of the seats had video monitors for movie/show watching, music listening, and games playing. The seats themselves were roomy enough. No blankets, headphones, or pillows were provided. The drink/snack cart rolled out shortly after the plane leveled off after takeoff. There were no carry-on baggage fees. PARKING (Varied; N/A this instance): I traveled through and had no need to park (I was dropped off). However, the airport offered onsite parking garages with rates that varied depending on length of stay from FREE (less than 15 minutes) and around $1.00 (16-30 minutes) to a range of $27.00/daily maximum (8+ hours). Because my gate was located within Terminal 1 of departing flights, you had to already be an outgoing or incoming passenger to even get here, so parking would be a moot point. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE Located deep into Terminal 2 (specifically near Gates E4-E10) filled with several gates, plenty of reasonably-priced eateries and duty-free shops, and a handful of monitors as you passed them along the way. There were sufficient places to sit in the terminal with plenty of natural and electric lighting. Once on the airplane, it seemed like any other, so nothing really needed to be said or seen here, but I wished I recalled the type of plane since I was nerdy like that! ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. I liked to be unencumbered and unfettered, so the least amount of clothing, especially while I traveled through an airport, the better! OVERALL My one-way non-stop flight on Southwest Airlines out of Honolulu (HNL) was fine and got me to Los Angeles (LAX) safely which truthfully was all that mattered to me on any flights. I wished there were seat video monitors that helped pass the time. In any case, I'd fly and recommend them again. I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $253.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice...AMEX! 4.0 STARS

    You are now free to move about the country." ― Southwest Airlines slogan…read more I'm a big fan of Southwest Airlines and when they started their new route to Hawaii, I knew I would eventually have to take a flight. All that said, you're not getting POG juice or any fun snacks outside the realm of Southwest's normal fare. Southwest Airlines does offer exclusive alcoholic beverages on Hawaii flights, including toasted coconut rum and a pineapple-hinted ale. Alcoholic beverages are available for purchase on most flights, though they may be complimentary for passengers in upgraded "Extra Legroom" seating. I like Southwest Airlines. My check-in bag was two-pounds over the limit on my flight back home but they let it slide. Now that's how you continue getting my business, even though bags no longer fly free and I keep getting stuck in the middle seat for some odd reason.

Continuing on, the transition has not been the easiest I'm sure for the traveler, the airline employees and all others who were involved however slight in this marriage of Pualani and the Eskimo. The backhouse infrastructure is in full force and effect, and very noticeable starting with the reservation and check in processes. The combination of backhouse staffing was in the works over the past few years and has now come full circle. The jury is out still and all we can do is cross our fingers and hope for the best. The front of the house still uses the Pualani logo and designs in the terminal and on the flights (my first review outlines this) Gate and boarding area for interisland and domestic flights remain the same (so far). For the Hawaiian traveler, you will have many more options with Alaska especially on the domestic front. For the Alaska traveler, it's much easier now for you to visit the land of Aloha.! Happy Traveling (ps- 4th star for the unending dedication by the remaining Hawaiian Employee Alumi)

    I'm not usually one to complain, but I felt this experience was worth sharing…read more While flying from Portland to Honolulu, I listened to a presentation about the Atmos credit card. The offer sounded very attractive: sign up for the card and receive 85,000 bonus points after meeting what was described as a relatively small spending requirement. Based on that information, I applied for the card when I got home. About two weeks later, I called customer service to ask about the bonus points. The first representative told me I needed to spend $4,000 to qualify. Later, another representative gave me different information, saying I should wait one or two billing cycles, or two to four weeks, for the points to appear. What makes this especially frustrating is that I previously had a Hawaiian Airlines credit card and membership and never had any issues. Everything was straightforward, and the benefits were delivered as promised. At this point, I'm confused about the requirements and timeline. I hope the bonus points arrive soon, but the information presented on the airplane does not seem to match the information I received afterward from customer service. I'm sharing this experience so others can carefully review the terms and conditions and know exactly what is required before applying.

    You don't really know till you try something yourself at least once right? This was the first time…read morewe flew a budget airline and it was quite the experience. We're thankful that at least they participated in TSA Pre out of HNL. Zipair is the budget airline for JAL. The reviews online were positive so we decided to give them a try on our trip to Japan. Reviews were mostly for the lay flat seating option though. Overall, they offered competitive prices but with all the upgrades and options you pay for, it ended up more than Hawaiian Airlines. I compared to my friend's airfare that he paid to go to Japan (he paid $60 or so less than us). If you fly with the lay flat seats then it probably is worth it but those seats were sold out when we booked. Check in does take awhile and I think it's because of the luggage restrictions. We saw many people shuffle around items so that their carry on luggage along with personal item is under 7kg at the check in counter. Yes, they weigh everything when you check in. If it's over, you will have to pay to check it in. There were so many carry on luggage at baggage claim. 7kg isn't much. I put my laptop, a watch, a few charging cables, a microfiber cloth and a box of cookies (omiyage) and it was 6.7kg. It was mostly empty so that's not much. If I put a jacket inside, it would have been over. The check in luggage can weigh up to 30kg. You will have to pay for the check in luggage vs the usual 2 complimentary check ins with international flights. It took a long time to get our luggage at luggage claim which was a little annoying. The plane itself is ok, nothing special. There are no screens at any seat so no entertainment unless you have a tablet or smartphone. Usually on international flights, you get unlimited drinks but you pay for each drink on Zipair. I spent a lot because I can't sleep on a plane very long and I was bored lol. Also, you usually get a complimentary meal on international flights but you have to purchase it with Zipair. Our upgraded package that we paid for included it and Mink said the food was ok. I don't eat airplane food so I can't really say anything. I did drink the bottled water that came with the meal though lol. Make sure to have your boarding pass available because they check it to see if you have a meal or not. Mink had a hard time locating ours and the flight attendant grabbed her property to look for it. That is unacceptable. It did take awhile for her to find it but she just woke up and was a little disoriented. The flight attendant had no right to touch our property without our consent to look for it. At least the seats had a power outlet to charge your devices. The flight attendants were all on the younger side and they offered ok service. Aside from one of them touching our property without consent, it was decent service. The person who checked us in at HNL was extremely friendly and the highlight of our experience with Zipair. Some things that weren't Zipair's fault was the kid behind us on the flight back. Imagine kicking your seat most of the flight back. That's on the parents. The girl next to me on the flight back couldn't stop throwing up. This was before we hit a lot of turbulence. She had to even take the bag from my seat to throw up in. There was also a lady that sat next to me which was the wrong seat then made a big deal about it someone else sitting in her seat in the row in front of us. To top it all off, the two planes colliding occurred while we were on the plane in Japan. It caused some delays but it made the trip memorable. Oh they land and depart from Terminal 1 in Narita for those who need to know for airport pickup and drop off. Would I fly them again? Probably not as a couple but possibly solo or on a boys trip since I don't need to pack a lot. Also, probably would want to fly with the lay flat seating option if available since our experience with economy was not so great. We had to toss new clothes, a pair of boots purchased right before that trip, food and miscellaneous beauty items so that we would make weight and close our check in luggage. What a waste of money. No time to get another luggage to put all the items we tossed and check that in. We already had limited space going to Japan but had zero space coming back. At least we had a life experience flying on a budget airline and they didn't lose our luggage. 2.5 stars

    I absolutely love Zip Airlines! In typical Japanese fashion, it's a ala carte pricing where if…read moreyou're only carrying 8 kg of carry-on luggage, roughly 15 lb, then you're probably paying the lowest price from Honolulu to Tokyo. However, if you would like to add a check-in luggage, pick your seat, and include an inflight meal, you have that option to do so when you book your ticket. Every seat on the flight includes unlimited Wi-Fi which allows you to stream movies or check the internet and send messages for free. If you want to order food or drinks, you can do so via the inflight app and you are served promptly and for a very reasonable price. Just for fun, I tried the children's meal and it was delicious. I also had the Tapas with a highball which is whiskey soda. I actually think this is really delicious in Flight economy food. If you want to pay more then you can even get a lay flat seat in their business class but beware that even though you're paying more for a business class seat you don't get a blanket or pillow unless you pay for that too. Frankly I think this is the way to go that you just pay for what you want. Definitely very strongly recommended!

After the initial cancellations, we were rebooked on United for the first leg to LAX -- and that ended up being an excellent flight.

The crew was attentive, the aircraft was comfortable, and the overall experience immediately relieved a lot of the stress from the earlier disruptions. From LAX, we switched back to Delta for the next leg to Honolulu. Delta went above and beyond to make the delay easier on us: * Overnight hotel accommodations provided * Food vouchers covered meals * Uber transportation to and from the airport was arranged Those extra steps made a huge difference and showed a real commitment to customer care. By the time we boarded the final leg of our journey, everything felt seamless again. What started as a frustrating travel day truly turned into a reminder of how great airline service can be when teams go the extra mile. Huge thanks to both United and Delta for making sure we were taken care of every step of the way. We finally arrived in Kona with our spirits high and gratitude even higher. Highly recommend -- top-notch service all around.

    Having stayed here over 6 times, this remains our go-to hotel. The location, amenities, top-notch…read moreservice, and beautiful beach keep us coming back. The rooms are spacious and beautifully renovated, the grounds are lush and pristine, and there is a fantastic selection of restaurants, bars, and shops on-site. (A special shoutout to TJ at Tropics--great guy!). We also deeply appreciate that the hotel hosts the Waikiki Beach Chaplaincy for Sunday morning beach services; it's a wonderful blessing. However, I knocked off a star this time due to two major frustrations. First, the elevators were malfunctioning, leading to 10+ minute waits that forced us to take the stairs multiple times. Second, the $69/day parking fee is absolutely outrageous. Despite these hiccups, we love this property and will definitely return.

    I wish I had done my homework before coming to this hotel. This review is for the Diamond Head…read moretower. It's dated, unwelcoming, bare minimum everything--like a Days Inn. The walls a paper thin, the furniture has seen better days, the bed is squeaky, the hand towel had a black smudge, there's a stain on the bathroom wall, the rug is old and it's cleanliness is dubious. The pools and grounds are well maintained though. I'd recommend looking into the tower you're booking so you're not unpleasantly surprised.

    I have been to this airport a total of 6 times in my life, 4 of which I was just a teenager. Many…read morethings have changed since the last time I was here to this trip. There is quite a distance from the gates to baggage check. With the storm being fully active when we landed (late due to delay) with part of the airport passage ways being open air, there was flooding in certain areas between the gates and baggage claim. Our baggage came down rather quickly and we were greeted with Leis & a shuttle to our hotel. Though some of the areas were wet and flooded, this airport is really well run. Even upon our return to head back to the mainland, TSA lines were not outrageous and fairly quick to get through security. One thing we did notice when flying out of this airport was that all carry on baggage must go through an additional xray machine right before boarding, this is an agriculture check - which takes boarding the plane take slightly longer than other airports. Even with the added step getting through the airport was a breeze.

    Hawaiian Airlines is the worst airline organization I have ever seen in my entire life. I will…read morestand by that statement until the day I die. I have traveled across the Middle East, Europe, and Africa. I have flown to more countries than I can count. I've gone through airports with insecure systems, airports where absolutely zero English was spoken, and somehow still managed to check my bags and get my items where they needed to go. This is not a personal opinion. This is a fact based on experience. Hawaiian Airlines is the most disorganized airline I have ever seen in my life, and honestly, I could see them going out of business. As you can see from the pictures, there is absolutely nobody assisting customers. I don't know if they are short-staffed because they refuse to hire people or refuse to pay decent wages, but nobody is there to help because the employees themselves appear overwhelmed with responsibility. Secondly, you have to wait in a completely separate line just to get your bags tagged. If the system fails and doesn't allow you to check in properly, you have to restart the entire process from the beginning. Then, after finally tagging your bags, there is another completely separate line just to drop the bags off. If something goes wrong again, you are sent all the way back to the beginning. It makes absolutely no sense. You know the system where you get your bag tag and boarding pass, then drop your bags? The system used by 99.9% of airlines? I assume Hawaiian Airlines leadership said, "I have an idea. I'm going to make this whole system complicated and confusing for my customers." There are multiple breakdowns in this entire process. You have five employees running back and forth trying to help move bags, but only one main line that splits into two checkpoints for customers trying to check in. Instead of having workers properly stationed at counters assisting customers with bag weighing and bag drop, they have thousands of kiosks with nobody available to help anyone use them. Customers are left standing around trying to figure out broken computer systems that do not scan properly, do not recognize confirmation codes, and constantly fail during check-in. It is a complete mess. I will say this: the flight attendants were very nice, the plane itself was wonderful, and the staff assisting once I finally made it to the front were helpful. But the entire experience beforehand was unnecessarily complicated for absolutely no reason. There are actual classes and professional systems dedicated to organization and customer flow, and Hawaiian Airlines would greatly benefit from them because they are completely failing in this aspect. Lastly, Hawaiian Airlines needs to get its shit together.
