I find it rather odd that HA would have later flights to and from OGG and LIH (leaving HNL around 9:45 ish) but not KOA and ITO (last ones leave before 8ish). I suppose it's really a matter of demand and length of flight and the fact that there's probably a lot less folks connecting to ITO/KOA than OGG/LIH.
But why are there flights that leave KOA later. Going HNL-KOA the latest flight is 735pm. Going KOA-HNL there is 659pm, 805pm, and 848pm. From LIH-KOA, the last hawaiian flight is at 540pm. In the other direction its not until 805pm. The lack of a late HNL-KOA flight makes no sense to me.
