Sorry, but why would ANYBODY want to end their Hawaii vacation by flying back on a red-eye to Bellingham?

Any relaxation effect from taking a vacation would be more than negated by the stress and usual lack of sleep on a red-eye flight, particularly as one will not be getting a normal 7-8 hours of sleep on that flight... I do not mind red-eyes on a transoceanic flight, since there is time for a full night's sleep, but certainly not on a Hawaii flight to the West Coast.
