Flight from Lihue to San Diego

samantaFlew with Alaska Airlines-Jun 2026

the red eye one is perfect to sleep on plane and get there early morning

Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Dec 2024

Get there a couple hours early. TSA is not the best organized. The security line took us about 50 minutes to an hour.

Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Jun 2024

The exiting gates and boarding connecting flights are very close, always bring an empty water container that you can fill in the airport filtered water dispensers bring your own favorite food

Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-May 2024

Don't use a small water bottle. Get a big one and fill it prior to boarding so you can keep hydrated better.
