Also, I believe these 35K miles can be transferred to 70K HHonor Points. Which would be 140K if I did this for both cards. I see HHonors then has 2 credit cards, one through Citi and one through AmEx which would give me another 80K HHonors points.

So my question is, can I apply for all 4 of the above or will I run into problems doing so. Also, would it be worth more to keep the 70K Hawaiian miles instead of converting them to HHonors? A re HHonors really only a good deal if you use them for hotel reservation?

Thanks
They are fine if you use them as intended (HA flights). However, unless you're in a city they serve, they have limited redemption options.
