I land into HNL at 12:55 (on AA from LAX). I will have checked luggage.
I want to book & fly onto KOA with Hawaiian departing at 13:57. Is this enough time to collect luggage, check in and make the flight? Will AA check my luggage from LAX to KOA even though it's not a codeshare and it's on a separate ticket?
There is another HNL-KOA flight departing 14:37 but I only want to book it if it's the only realistic option.
Thanks

1437 it is. Enjoy a nice Mai Tai while you relax.

I welcome any suggestions for a decent place for an early afternoon snack and a drink @ HNL. Other than the IASS lounge (possibly the most horrible lounge I've ever been to), I don't have lounge access anymore @ HNL. I've been to DL and UA several times in the past and it certainly isn't worth the day fee for either. Alternatively, are there any lounges worth a day fee? (I expect not.)
Finally, is the entire airport accessible all airside? I've never walked over to the HA side, and passing some of the time with a walk is an option.

You can get to the HA side within the airside walkway, and you might like the bar and food options there. Perhaps Lahaina Chicken and/or Stingerays:

How long is your connection? Some good dining options a few minutes taxi ride away...

What's the current amount for same-day standby?
We are landing at HNL at 3:05 PM, and onto OGG at 4:40 PM. There's a 3:30 flight (everything is HA)
Could it be possible to run and make the 3:30 flight? If so, what would they charge us? We booked award flights (coach) directly from HA--not sure if this makes a difference
Thanks!

I don't have any experience with the HA non-stop from JFK, but if both flights are on HA, there is a good chance they'd put you on the next flight.

Just hate to waste even one hour of precious time in Hawaii....hopefully HNL isn't too miserable a place to spend 90 minutes. And anyway it's the start of vacation so we should be optimistic even after an 11-hour flight in coach...

There are Lahaina Chicken, Pinkberry and a Hawaiian Cookie Company store (choc. chip macadamia shortbreads!).

Minimum Connect TimesShare Results
STANDARD.D/D...D/I...I/D...I/I.
ONLINE 1.15 1.00 2.00 2.00
OFFLINE 1.15 1.00 2.00 2.00
Of course, these are minimums. The real time you allot yourself is a function of your risk- and stress-tolerances, whether you are on one PNR, and whether you baggage will be interlined.

Connecting Flights through HNL
Hello,
I am going to Hawaii for my Honeymoon in August; my fiance booked out flights last month. With all the TSA BS happening, I'm curious if I'm allowing enough time to get through?
We are flying on Mokulele from Oahu to HNL (landing at 955a on Wednesday morning). I know we will have to take the wiki wiki to our connecting (Alaska Air) and we'll have to go through TSA. Our flight leaves for the mainland at 1130a.
Do I have enough time or should I start praying that morning?
Thanks!
