Advice with flights from Jackson, MS to Hawaii

Traveling with my family late July to Hawaii, and haven't been in the airline "game" (especially leisure with a family of 4) in a while. Would appreciate advice on the main flights, as I plan on flying into HNL and out of KOA. Am I missing any considerations?

(Will post later - and continue my research - on things to do/island, inter-island flights and places to stay, although I plan on maximizing the use of my Hilton points on the Big Island and Kauai.)

Thinking of:

Flying JAN-HNL on a Thursday
- 2 nights Oahu
- inter-island flights TBD
- 5 nights Kauai
- 10 nights Kona (Waikiloa)
Returning KON-JAN Fri/Sat.

I don't have any airline miles to speak of, but am leaning towards AA (fare dependent) since I have lifetime Gold, which at a minimum would possibly help in boarding and checked baggage fees.

thanks!
