Both are notorious airports for aborted landings.

And of course, the classic Pilot Induced Oscillation video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rMageU9lng
God, my stomach was jumping just watching these. I have only had one abort last year at DFW. We deplaned and waited an hour while they got us another plane.

The inter island flights in Hawaii can be really scary. Even coming into OGG on a 767 is really bumpy.
