No, both UA and DL awards are 35K miles for mainland to/from Hawaii.

Wrong. 30k on Delta, 35k on United. Believe FC and the unrestriced coach award is 60k on both.
Delta primary flies to/from HNL, with I think continuing service on 1 or 2 flights to Maui, so if you are visiting different islands spending the extra 5k miles for a United award probably makes sense.
