I see on different websites mentions of 25k points flights, talk about Avios/British and Alaska/Korean. Tried both of those, but they didn't have direct flights, and the indirect flights (with 10h+ layovers) still are over 60k points per person. Korean was mentioned in some places as a cheaper (in points) alternative to Delta, but even after calling them, they told me they have no seats available on the direct flights.
Also tried AA, United and Southwest, and couldn't find anything worthwhile.
Is there some method that I'm missing, or is 140k points a reasonable/best price for two people RT from ATL to HNL?
I didn't search returns because I don't know how long you want to stay.
4 October, leaving from Atlanta to go to Honolulu. There's availability for two people in a Delta itinerary. There's a layover in Los Angeles, but it's only for 2 hours.
There's another itinerary with a layover of only 45 minutes. Both of these schedules are for economy seats and should be bookable through Korean Airlines if you can find suitable return flights.
I found those flights by searching on Air France.
