With a mix of cash and miles, whats the best plan to try and do this first class? If not the whole trip, at least the NY>HNL leg. Also can I use HawaiianMiles on an AA flight?
Do you have -- or are you willing to get -- a Citi or Barclays AA credit card? Killeen is on the list of reduced-mileage-award destinations for September, October, and November. You can fly to Killeen from anywhere in the lower 48 for 8,750 AA miles per person on a Coach SAAver award, if you hold a qualifying credit card.

Details here:

Edited to add: For travel from Killeen to the NYC metro area, Long Island/MacArthur Airport (ISP) is also on the list.
