I am trying to plan a trip for 2 to Maui in May (flying SJC - OGG) for 6 nights.
If you're flying SJC-OGG you're looking at the non-stop Alaska Airlines flight, right?

Wouldn't you be able to redeem 12.5k BA Avios each way for coach? And wouldn't you be able to transfer the UR points to Avios to make that happen?

That would be 25k per person in coach. (I recall reading that first class takes 3x the Avios. Personally, I would just go in coach on the non-stop flight.)
