Self check in is not indicated well if you approach Terminal 1 from Terminal 2 Parking. Go to the other side of the checkin counters.

Budget extra time if you're flying Hawaiian Air to get from the main terminal to the remote Hawaiian Air terminal.

Check in early, give yourself a bit of time, and enjoy the flight. Lihue has a super small airport, so not much going on there.

Really good except my daughter's tv broke during the flight so she could watch tv

Really good except my daughter's tv broke during the flight so she could watch tv

I would've liked to have the seat tablets like before to view movies, with long travels not everyone carries tablets to view movies. And phones are not worth it because screens to small.

Horrible! No blanket or pillow available! We had bulkhead seats but the seats were worn out and no cushion old. No meal or even a sandwich for our 5 hour flight just a little bag of pretzels. Crabby attendant female with long brown hair. We will not book Alaska Airlines again

Terrible check in experience, and they ended up losing our bag.

they didn't fix a plane and we were delayed travelling an extra 12 hours.

Well, the baggage porter on Maui told my mom that our carry on luggage was overweight and if she gave him a 50 dollar tip he would let it go through. She tipped him and he tells us that he needs my Alaska airlines cc to waive the extra baggage charge. Find out later that since my original reservation was not under my name using a Hawaiian airlines CC, I would have to pay for the luggage anyway. I told them I had to end up paying for my daughters ticket when you all said because she turned two using my Alaska Airlines cc, now they need to charge me for her seat/flight, but you guys didn't care and i ended up paying for the bags and my mom paid the porter 50 dollars extra for nothing .. It was a crappy experience. First it was a multi trip. PDX-HNL then HNL-OGG then OGG to PDX. All bought under one ticket. My daugher turned two during the flight from HNL-OGG, but when I bought the ticket and at the PDX airport they said since i bought the ticket before she was two, everything is fine. come to find out no, I had to pay her ticket HNL-OGG and again OGG to PDX. you guys scammed me. You should say it on your website and make sure people know that during flights if the child turns two they have to pay for their seat. If i knew that from the very beginning i would have bought her ticket and it would have been LESS than paying TWICE for her flight! and you scammed my mother with you porter who told her to pay him 50 dollars and he would take care of the extra luggage weight.

This flight was how a flight should be. The flight from Hawaii to Seattle was terrible

Our big luggage never made it to Boston. Very crucial to get it ASAP as heart medication is in there.

Wish I got An email stating that I needed to check in at hawaiian even if I made my ticket thru alaska. I had to walk to terminal A from Terminal B.

Long delay before boarding. By the time I was informed of the delay I was already at the gate.

Southwest is Southwest. No frills. If you're luck enough to get a happy crew (we did), then it makes for a nicer flight.

Southwest is typically delayed, and it gets wearisome. It is no longer a discount airline and you get way less than you pay for when it comes to comfort and Ce.

We sat on the plane on the tarmac for 4 hours.

I'm not a fan of Southwest's model. I don't like the herding style of boarding.

Flight crew and cabin crew were great. I had to rearrange flights because my original flight was 3hrs delayed for weather, the rub is the flight I moved to boarded on time then we sat at the gate for 2 hours because scheduling stole our first officer for another flight, TWICE. Then our actual FO was an hour delayed. To make it worse my original flight went from a 3 hour delay to departing 15min EARLY. Just poor scheduling operations all around.

Bring back peanuts Take our drink orders when were all seated, especially after you switch to assigned seating.

Staff was far less than helpful at all times. Departure and arrival times mean nothing to Southwest. Extremely disappointed, will never fly with them again, and I’ll be sure to share my experience with all.

It is southwest seat was ok. Not the most comfortable seat

I’ve always loved Southwest. No issues at all. I was flying standby and the gate agent was extremely friendly and helpful. Boarding was smooth and I was able to get a window seat in the emergency exit row. Crew was fantastic! They were very professional and accommodating. We had to divert from our destination due to weather but the flight crew kept everyone at ease and informed us of all pertinent information. Excellent flight

The price of the tickets isn't matching the flight experience. No matter how long the flight is, you're only getting pretzels. The flight attendants looked unkept and over it.

Hawaiian Airlines staff is always professional & quick & easy check in & boarding process

Bar code for checking luggage and boarding pass didn't work. Had to stand in long customer service line. Passengers at Oahu should be aware the Terminal for Hawaiian Air requires travel by shuttle. Budget an extra 20-30 minutes to get from the main terminal to the remote terminal.

Checking baggage at Honolulu was a real mess. No signs directing where to go.

They cancelled our flight and one after and then crammed everyone on a late flight. Refused to give us a meal voucher because the delay was less than 3 hours. In the end the delay was 4 hours. No reason was ever given for the cancelled flights. Fly Southwest!

There was mention of a complimentary magazine but none were in the seat pockets. The flight is short so understandable not having food or a snack.

Flight delayed. Then left much later than new time. 88 year old dad waiting at Kona airport for ages.

This is my first time flying Hawaiian. It was so disorganized and poorly coordinated, resulting in the most unacceptable delay

The flight from HON to Hilo caused a few problems, but we were helped by the checking agent at Hawaiian Airlines with tech assistance. My wife & I are in our 70's and not QR code savvy. But we are learning.

Boarding was a nightmare. Almost everyone was on group 4 and there was no line people crowded the check in and made things more chaotic than they needed to be.

The flight crew made the trip pleasant considering they had to work in conditions similar to a sardine can.
