Glitch on Hawaiian Airlines redemptions?
I've been checking on getting back to the mainland from HNL and discovered that you can pay 37.5k or 47.5k miles for the same seat on any Hawaiian metal segment that's available. I can understand the need for dynamic pricing as there is a choice of C or F if you connect through LAX or SFO, but pricing just a single segment gives you two different prices.
Glitch or does someone know why? I'd certainly prefer to pay 37.5k (that's if I can find something available - believe it or not crossing the pacific is easy, the domestic connection is giving me pain.

A) I don't see a 47.5k award LAX-HNL.
B) I think you're seeing Y Anytime and F Saver awards, as those are the two closest in miles.

I have noticed this before. AA.com seems to consider a first class seat on these HA flights both as 2 class and 3 class first awards even though they are 2 class.

Saw the same for SEA-OGG on HA. Same flight and same ticket codes come up at 37.5 and 47.5k miles. Both show booking class D and both show First class.
