You know what I want from Southwest flying to Hawaii? Daytime return flights. Redeye into LAX or PHX on AA is not my idea of a good time.
i don’t see why that doesn’t become feasible. Redeem a low number of miles to lax with saver rewards and then southwest provides discounts to the island. Perhaps you can get a pony after All?

aa mile redemption to Hawaii is just stupid now, I can bring myself to cough up 150,000 miles per person.
