Is the approximately 1 hour 30 minute layover plenty of time? We're going first class and I definitely don't want to miss our HNL- LAX flight since we have the lie-flat seats.
You have plenty of time. These interisland flights are rarely delayed and HA has the country's best on-time record because of it. However, there are occasions when they have to pull a plane due to mechanical reasons, and when this happens, all heck breaks loose. I would not anticipate that.
If walking is a problem, make advance arrangements for a wheel chair escort. Otherwise, have a leisurely airside stroll to the international terminal.
