Here’s this week’s top news about the islands of Aloha.

* Hawaiian Airlines is celebrating their fourth Airbus A330 with $334 roundtrip fares. That’s fares starting at $334 for all Hawaiian Airlines direct transpacific routes! You must book these fares by May 5, 2011 for travel between September 9 – November 17, 2011, which happens to be one of the best times to visit Hawaii

* Alaska Airlines has summer sale to Hawaii with fares starting at $398 roundtrip. The sale fares are valid for travel between June 10 and August 21, 2011.

  • too bad the Hawaiian Air deal timing isn't better for me. Great deal!
    Glad the mule rides opened back up, remember reading about them not being able to operate. That sounds like an experience to ride down the side of the cliff like that!
