1:What are your favorite and least favorite islands?
The Big Island is my favorite. I plead the Fifth on the later.
2:What are your favorite Hotels?
Casa de Mommy in Honolulu. We also have a special relationship with the HHV.
3:What is/are your favorite Beach(es)?
I've answered this in another thread, but, hands down, White Manele (Hulopoe), Lana`i
4:What is your prefered routing to get to the Islands?
LAX-HNL, op-upgraded on UA.
5:And finally, I know that they are virtually the same, but pick one, Hawaiian or Aloha for interisland ?
We've been an Aloha family since time began for many reasons (Pake families stick together) Now, mainly because of the UA partnership.
