Do any of you have advice with getting off the plane find gate and get there with in 30Min because of Door Closing at 10Min before the Airplane Leaves the Gate!
It sounds like you are not flying as an unacompanied minor, correct?

This is very good advice. Make sure you check in for both your ABQ-LAX and LAX-OGG flights and get your boarding passes before you depart from ABQ. Try taking a look at the seatmap online about 24 hours before departure; some United Express carriers like SkyWest block the first row of seats until 24 hours before departure and then release them. Grab a seat in Row 1 and do not gate check any luggage as you'll waste time waiting for it when you land at LAX. Assume you will be arriving in Terrminal 8 and that the OGG flight is going to leave from one of the mid- to upper 70s gates so hang a hard left out of the gate and head over to T7. Check the monitors as you hustle over to verify your gate.
