avios would work well from lax to hnl..but not so good in sfo to ogg...
Avios would work fine on the OAK-OGG and SJC-OGG nonstops on AS (assuming award-seat availability). The problem is that the OP is starting from the East Coast, and BAEC now uses a distance-based award system, and charges separately for each flight flown (i.e., connecting flights are not included).
