[FARE GONE] UA: IAH/ATL/EWR-HNL, $192.94 ($254.90+ all-in)

[OAK AAFlier]

Has anyone seen this kind of deal on other airlines (specifically for me AA)?

[Gantless]

Wow, this is a great deal. Unfortunately, I don't have enough vacation remaining to take 5 of these to make it to 1K this year. I was able to get in to get in on the AUS-SFO/LAX deals earlier this year in order to reach 2P. Then the DEQM promo kicked in retroactively and suddenly I'm looking at 1P! As for booking a trip to HNL out in 2010, I will wait until the girlfriend moves to town before looking to turn such multi-day mileage runs into mini vacations

[superEGO]

Slick deal for a nice vacation! Ugh, wish I could take advantage.

Welcome to FT Gantless!

bought 2, ORD-MSP-DEN-HNL-ORD-MSP for $345 a/i for Dec and Jan. Why is UA so stingy on the NF when each HNL segment has 1 person booked in F - save that for another thread

[zapyiu]

bought one yesterday night and used a 200 e-cert (the base fare was 230 something). Now I found another ticket (all UA metals) which is only 190 something, wondering if I could cancel my old ticket (bounght it less than 24 hours ago) and reuse the e-cert for the new ticket??? any suggestions? and thanks so much for the post! it's really great!!!

Maybe I should ask this over on the UA forum - but seems to apply here too

THANKS

For purposes of answering your question, you can ignore those choices. You can support an upgrade on a domestic L fare to HNL using 15,000 MP miles; round-trip would be 30,000.

Here's a post on how miles-supported upgrades clear on UA: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/7967362-post233.html

I'd suggest additional information regarding upgrades and Hawai`i travel on UA may be found in the United Mileage Plus Forum; please refer to the Forum FAQ and or searching the archives.

This would be a great fare...beats nonrevving but I'm unable to find a valid return with inventory for ex...Jul 9,10,14,15 has avail outbound then errors out saying no inventory avail on return...

Does anyone have any dates for Dec/Jan? PM me please...Want to take my family to Hawaii.

You can definitely upgrade the L fare with miles - of course it depends on NF availability.

I upgraded my August IAD-HNL with miles outbound, e-500's (pending) on the return (due to some ted segments it wasn't worth another 15K miles).

You can find inventory in December and January once you stray comfortably outside of the prime Christmas/New Year's holiday period. Try a flexible dates search on united.com. You can also search for "L" class inventory at seatcounter.com.

Just booked it!

2 tix for my wife and I: Feb 17-21 ATL-HNL = $552
2 tickets for my parents: MSP-HNL Feb 12-19 = $576

My brother and sister-in-law live in Honolulu, so a good excuse to see them!

Thank you very much (and TechnoPagan) for answering my (somewhat off topic) question.

[phoenixgck]

still no other airlines match it?

Come on! AA, CO, I need to use your vouchers!

AA and CO are weak .

now watch UA not play nice

tried to book SFO/LAX - MCO-IAD-EWR on the return but no dice

ended up ewr-iad-ord-hnl and same return (May 2-5)

.bomb wasn't playing nice w/my ecert so i lost 30 mins of my life trying to explain to web support that HNL is in the 50 United States

i considered nesting a HNL-EWR the next day to avoid the hotel spend but i think i deserve some beach time after that

[CPMaverick]

Thanks OP so much for posting this!

My family had been planning a Hawaii trip in Nov, so many were worried that they couldn't afford to go. And they are in ATL and SLC

6 tickets sold this AM, I'm so glad this deal has stuck more than 1 day as I missed it yesterday.
