Aloha Chazas! I think your best bet from Hawaii is United or Northwest. I have flown both carriers to Asia from Honolulu and find minimal diffences betweenthe two. Flights in coach and first are comparable. My experience has been the flight crew makes the difference. Of all the flights to/from Hawaii, United has the biggest share. Every flight is long and will show movies - United has free headsets in coach. Not a big deal but something no other airline offers. I concur with BoSoxFan45 about Hawaii. It's a nice place to visit, but...I'm looking forward to moving to the mainland. Hope you like it here.
