Happy 2014!
Please use this thread to post or to follow Economy Fares which are 'Good Deals' but where the cost per mile is more than 3-4 cents per mile, which is the usual upper limit for what is considered a true 'MR Deal'.
A few requests for posting in the thread:
-members posting their deals please post the city pairs/airport codes and pricing in the body of the post and not just in the post title as it isn't visible for those reading it on mobile devices (ETA: ...or in email alerts)

Provided the NYC-HNL section is not longer than the shortest trip in your itinerary it could be booked as an open jaw ticket. However, NYC-HNL(OGG or any other in Hawaii is almost 5k miles) so in this case probably not bookable as cheap-ish open jaw as most EU-NYC are only around 3.5-4k miles.
Maybe if you do EU-DFW and HNL-EU, that could work as open jaw
