Also this is my first time flying HA. What are there lounges, and amenities like? Is there anything I should know about that a first-time HA flyer should know?

Thanks
HA operates its own lounge in HNL, but it looks like the common room of Third Class from a 1920 passenger liner.

The bulkhead seats do indeed feel more spacious. Still, the seats themselves are rather uncomfortable and I highly recommend that you bring some additional support for your back.

Overall, HA First (or Business to international markets) is simply a regional product, don't expect international Business Class standards in any way.
