Will I make this flight?

Hi Everyone,
I'm flying into HNL on CO, arriving at 6:10PM. Then I'd like to take the Hawaiian flight to Maui leaving at 7:30. Think I'll make it? If not, I can take the next flight at 8:05, but that's the last one. Would they let me take that flight if I miss the 7:30?
Thanks!

So long as your CO flight arrives on time, you'll make it.

And if it's late, do you think they'll let us take the later flight, or will we be stranded in HNL?

Take the 8:05pm - the stress is not worth it.

While the EWR non-stop is usually on time or a bit early, I certainly wouldn't want to chance it.

At least with the time change it's arriving at 6:10pm - when I go it's usually 7:10pm and I don't want to risk taking any interisland flight. Outboud we take the flight thru IAH to make sure we have plenty of time for our connection.

Thanks for the advice, but I already booked the 7:30...I want to get to the hotel and start honeymooning, if you know what I mean.

If you think you're going to start honeymooning when you finally get to Maui and into your hotel, well, you're being optimistic Depending upon where you're staying, well, you're not going to see that room until at least 9:30pm - Hawaii time.

That is, unless you get a decent amount of sleep on the way over - in BF there's good chance of that, since the seats are so comfortable.

It's good to be young and optimistic
