With the $249 one way / $426ish return flights to Hawaii, we can use this and piggy back with onward flights to Los Angeles/San Francisco to create a cheap way to get to North America! You could even do a return to Hawaii and a return from Hawaii to LA/SF to get yourself a stopover in Honolulu…

The flight to Hawaii is on a widebody 787 Dreamliner, and then on Hawaiian to LA/SF on a widebody A330.

All flights are return and include carry-on luggage.

Don't forget a hotel and/or car rental.

      Some people like to stop over in Hawaii.

      I have done so many times.

      However, the price of accommodation in Hawaii at the present time, imo, is prohibitive.

      • corepda on 06/11/2023 - 09:13

    do you need to be vaccinated to be allowed in USA

    • AircraftFreight on 05/11/2023 - 15:44

      No

    • whyisave on 05/11/2023 - 17:43

      U.S. borders opened from 12 May 2023.

      The United States had imposed a COVID-19 vaccination requirement on international travellers who are non-citizens (persons who are not US citizens, US nationals, lawful permanent residents of the United States, or traveling to the United States on an immigrant visa) since 2021. However, this is about to change.

      The COVID-19 vaccination requirement for non-citizen travellers has been in place since November 8, 2021:

      • On October 25, 2021, President Biden issued a Presidential Proclamation, which revoked the United States’ existing COVID-19 air travel restrictions and replaced them with a requirement to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. The Presidential Proclamation came into effect on November 8, 2021, and applied to all non-citizens traveling to the United States by air.
      • On October 29, 2021, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) also announced on its website that it would end its prohibition on non-essential travel and allow non-citizens who were fully vaccinated against COVID-19 to enter the United States for non-essential purposes, at land ports and ferry terminals as of November 8, 2021. 

      On March 3, 2023, H.J. Res. 7, which resolved to formally end the COVID-19 national emergency, was approved by the Senate. It was previously approved by the House of Representatives on February 1, 2023. H.J. Res. 7 was presented to President Biden on April 5, 2023. Although he opposed H.J. Res. 7, President Biden ultimately signed it into law on April 10, 2023. 

      On May 1, 2023, the White House announced that it would end the COVID-19 vaccination requirements for international air travellers “at the end of the day” on May 11, 2023, the same day that the COVID-19 national emergency was expected to end. DHS also announced that, as of May 12, 2023, it would no longer require non-citizen travellers entering the United States through land ports of entry or ferry terminals to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. In other words, as of May 12, 2023, non-citizens will be permitted to travel to the United States (by air, by land, or by ferry) without having to prove that they are fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

      The termination of the United States’ COVID-19 vaccination requirement should ensure consistency on both sides of the Canada-US border.
      Canada previously ended all of its COVID-19 travel restrictions and requirements (including its COVID-19 vaccination requirement) on October 1, 2022.

    This is a mid offer, considering the next cheapest option throughout the next 365 days is $1,200 return with Fiji Airways. Qantas bottoming out at $2.5k return. $1.4k with Hawaiian. And starting at $1.44k for the nonstop out of SYD with United.

    Look on google flights and see if the cost difference is low enough to go with a full service mainline carrier all under 1 PNR, for more protection.

    FYI, I would consider going for top tier reputable travel insurance such as Allianz. JQ/1/2 and JQ/3/4 are prone to 30min-1hr delays especially on the outbound sector out of HNL In addition be sure to give yourself plenty of time in HNL for your transit as you will need to clear US immigration which is a shit show in my past experiences even with APEC.

    The solo offer with JQ to HNL is very solid however for $440 return (+ extra for better packages with baggage and food) and in my past experiences, I have had upgrade emails to JQ Business (essentially premium economy) for as low as $199 each way.

    • CheapBrah on 05/11/2023 - 15:54

      Lol Allianz top tier? Read the PDS. You'd at least want someone that covers mechanical related delays/cancellations, if not all airline caused delays/cancellations, which Allianz won't.

      • Xizor on 05/11/2023 - 16:17

        Each year we check before travelling and PDS's have changed in various ways. Granted i dont check every company out there, but at least half a dozen, and its getting harder and harder to cover travel delays in a meaningful way without paying stupid amounts.

    • [Deactivated] on 05/11/2023 - 17:46

      It'd be good with the upgrade!

      That's cover luggage etc

      • wavesgreen on 05/11/2023 - 18:16

        I mean it is, and I've done those flights with the upgrade, pre-pandemic. But then it brings you on par with Fiji. Now I've never flown Fiji but I imagine it'd be a better experience than Jetstar. 🤢

    • Techie4066 on 05/11/2023 - 19:14

      JQ/1/2 and JQ/3/4 are prone to 30min-1hr delays especially on the outbound sector out of HNL

      JQ2 had 82% OTP, JQ4 had 96% OTP. Both were delayed excessively only once in a month.

    No checked luggage, and even if it had it you'd need to recheck your luggage in Hawaii.

      This.

      There's no "transit" in Hawaii,
      ie. U.S. Government forces you to disembark,
      clear immigration, collect your luggage, re-check in.

      • CheapBrah on 05/11/2023 - 19:12
        +1

        Oh I didn't even know that, my comment was in regard to Jetstar and Hawaiian not having an agreement for luggage transfer (and even if they did I'm not sure if you could use it when different PRNs).

        • whyisave on 05/11/2023 - 20:36

          Well, I have flown over the Pacific to the U.S.A. many times,
          and on the non-stop routes,
          you get off at Los Angeles [LAX] or San Francisco [SFO],
          and you go through immigration & customs there.

          There was a couple of times, when I had flown with a Hawaii [HNL] stop-over,
          and even if the plane 'transits' in HNL, the passengers (including me),
          were forced to disembark, go through immigration & customs with checked-in luggage,
          and then re-check in to continue the flight.

            @whyisave: Makes sense now that you mention it as it's the first US stop and the rest is domestic. But even if you're using this to go to Canada or Mexico your luggage won't be checked through as Jetstar don't have an agreement with Hawaiian Airlines.

      Its not going to get better anytime soon.
      I remember the good old long weekend hops to HNL on JQ in 2011, 12 and 13. $1 AUD = $1.1 USD.

      • whyisave on 05/11/2023 - 17:58

        Yeah, I remember spending 'big' in USA around that time.

        That was the peak of the AUD-USD exchange rate.

        Realistically when do we think the aud would be at parity with UsA? Oh how I wish I spent more in usa in 2012/13, who would’ve thought you’d think aussies would go in droves to UsA right?

        Anyhow back to my question, when do we think it’ll go back high? I love to go back to Hawaii but yeah Aussie at 0.64usd just makes it shitty, I mean it doesn’t stop you going but after their hidden tax, tipping, inflation you’d be paying twice the $ easily

        I was going to go to Hawaii in Nov 2020 and the Airbnb in Waikiki was 1.4k … after covid I tried the same place and it was 2.8k !?! Bloody hell wtf 😢

        • AircraftFreight on 05/11/2023 - 22:49

          Yeah its not going to pickup anytime soon, we dont even have a forecast at the moment.

          It may hit 0.80 sometime in 2025 but thats dependent on a lot of volatile factors. If the US economy goes bankrupt/defaults overnight then the AUD would shoot out of control, along with other currencies. Time will tell.

          • prankster on 05/11/2023 - 22:57

            @AircraftFreight: 0.80 would be nice but yeah I don’t think US economy would have any banks going bankrupt since that last crash. I was thinking about how they are always nearly going to default but they keep increasing the debt or some shit and I’m thinking, wtf can they keep doing that, that’s just a Band-Aid solution that’s not going to fix their economy long term right?

            Anyhow I think if they defaulted, I feel world economy would just shit itself too and also affect Aussie economy / dollar (although you’d think it would increase our dollar)

            Alas time will tell like you said

              @prankster: The debt ceiling is what I was talking about, partisan politics is more present than ever before in the United States - and its as simple as some far right republicans who wish to see the US suffer, they will sure enough make it that way.

              The Australian Economy is strong, as long as we hold and grow our feet to which we have, if the US dollar goes to shit like what it did in 2008 - theres two key differences. 1) China, we rely on China more than ever before and as long as China stands strong to which our economy. And 2) the Australian economy is no longer reliant on the United States in comparison to 2008, if the events were to play out - most likely our exports to China, India ect would be more or less unaffected.

              Now this would eventually hit us somewhat and in certain sectors. But it wont be as bad as in 2008.

              But yet again, it’s all volatile and could change at any moment.
