Check in 24 hours prior and pay for luggage in advance to help expedite process

Be prepared to sit for a long time. Wear loose fitting comfortable clothes.

Bring a blanket for the flight and your own snacks. WiFi on the plane was great and the leg room in our seats was good also
Verified travelerFlew with Hawaiian AirlinesJFK-HNLApr 2025
Patients , especially in the airport. RFK airport is crazy busy ! For the flight , get up during the flight to stretch.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska AirlinesSJC-HNLMay 2025
Get there early, you may have to walk to a different terminal
LawrenceFlew with United AirlinesSFO-HNLMay 2025
Get to your gate early!!! Very little seating at/near gates 19, 20, 21 and 22. The last couple of flights, American boarding (very different gates) has been very straightforward. The last time on United, boarding at gate 19 was bedlam. Really going to look hard before scheduling on United next time!!!
William DrewFlew with SouthwestSJC-HNLDec 2024
If you're flying from San Jose, arrive at the airport early. You never know how long the line at TSA will be. If you have time, the airport has well-designed facilities and reasonable priced restaurants. The Southwest ground staff is professional and will help you through the check-in and cattle call boarding process

Wish I had known there was a shuttle bus all the way home becaues the trains were jam packed with no chance of sitting or even moving to a place to hang on.
RoyFlew with Hawaiian AirlinesKOA-HNLFeb 2025
Would never have booked Hawaiian if we’d known Hon-Auck only flew twice a week. If you must, get to Hon the day before a flight elsewhere.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska AirlinesSEA-HNLSep 2024
Bring your own food or eat before boarding. Get to that airport 3 hours early for a domestic flight, the TSC screening line was 45 minutes long and if you have to walk to the other side of the terminal you might have to run.
teresaFlew with Hawaiian AirlinesLIH-HNLOct 2024
The flight is so short ! The hardest parts were returning our rental cars and getting our bags checked -nothing opened until 5 and we had a 6 am flight -we all got aboard but it was a challenge
StaceyFlew with Hawaiian AirlinesLIH-HNLOct 2024
Give yourself more time than you would expect on a Saturday to get through check in. Also, the airport is hot, so be prepared.
Verified travelerFlew with Hawaiian AirlinesPHX-HNLOct 2024
Make sure that you have seat assignments before your flight because this route is usually full and the seats are small
FSFlew with Hawaiian AirlinesOAK-HNLOct 2024
Bring your own headset, else you need to pay for some, if you need them.
KathyFlew with Alaska AirlinesSEA-HNLSep 2024
Bring warm clothing, a blsnket, your own water to keep hydrated.
JanaFlew with Hawaiian AirlinesKOA-HNLOct 2024
Ask to get off before insecticide is sprayed. Take warm clothes.
William DrewFlew with Alaska AirlinesSFO-HNLNov 2024
Arrive at least two hours before your flight.
Verified travelerFlew with Air CanadaYVR-HNLJun 2024
If you are seated in the rearmost seats of the aircraft, overhead baggage compartments may already be occupied with first-aid kits, "emergency snacks for tarmac waits," etc. Contact flight attendants immediately to see if they can help you find alternative places, especially if the flight is full.
LeiFlew with Alaska AirlinesANC-HNLMay 2024
Check-in prior to heading to airport thereby avoiding lines
Verified travelerFlew with Hawaiian AirlinesLIH-HNLMay 2024
Being on the airport one hour bevor boarding is fine :)
Verified travelerFlew with LufthansaYVR-HNLMay 2024
Baggage policies encourage too much carry-on, making boarding stressful. Anticipate in advance, pack appropriately. Label your carry-ons well so if you decide to check them, they're ready to go. Sometimes the airline will announce that there are too many carry-ons and will offer to check bags from volunteers for free clear through to your destination.
Verified travelerFlew with Hawaiian AirlinesKOA-HNLMar 2024
If you have a person in your party with a temporary ID (i.e. they were just issued one by DMV or their permanent ID has not arrived yet) be sure to bring additional identification materials. In our case an insurance card with their name on it was sufficient.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska AirlinesSAN-HNLMay 2024
I suggest packing a big snack bag and a large water bottle in case there are any issues with the flight causing a delay. When there are delays, no food is served, so you are stuck in a chair hungry and thirsty.
MichaelFlew with Alaska AirlinesSAN-HNLMar 2024
Get there early as possible for the long haul across the Pacific.
MelissaFlew with Alaska AirlinesSEA-HNLMay 2024
Bring your own snacks because they will not feed you any kind of a big meal and it’s five hours. It’s a long time to wait without food. You do get a pretzel bag and a cookie and two drinks but that’s not enough.
Verified travelerFlew with Hawaiian AirlinesJFK-HNLMar 2024
Bring your own food for snacks because it’s crazy expensive at the airport and the airline doesn’t give that much food for such a long flight.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska AirlinesPAE-HNLJan 2024
The noise level at Paine field is low so you can actually hear the announcements. Seating is comfortable and there is a small coffee/ snack area which I was not expecting. Flight on Alaska was pleasant except for a little turbulence. Not crowded!! It was a 5 plus hour trip but very relaxed

Food was just ok..had snack box :( Crew was very nice

The Alaska app and website were not fully operational. I had to spend about 15 minutes at the counter doing things that should have been completed online. The agent was very nice and helpful, however.

Could have service kiosks, had to find a gate with an attendant

Flying on Hawaiian Airlines was good. But, getting a boarding pass was a hassle. I booked what I thought was an Alaska Airlines flight that was actually a Hawaiian Airlines flight. I couldn't check in online. I had to wait for the Hawaiian Airlines counter to open so I could get my boarding pass which was a requirement for me to get in The Club or the Centurion Lounge. (I had no check in luggage so I didn't expect to have to physically check in.) The Alaska Airlines staff blamed the FAA for the problem.

Passengers were not informed timely of delays. The staff appeared like they didn't really care about the passengers.

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.

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.

The flight was scheduled for 2:30 PM. Early in the morning we got a text message saying the flight was delayed and rescheduled for 3:00 PM. We got to the airport with that in mind. Then we got a message during check-in at the flight was rescheduled again for 2:30 PM. We almost missed our flight. In fact, our bags Were told that they would not make it. At the end, everything worked out. But it is very stressful.

Most aspects were good however if they assign boarding zones they ought to enforce them or why bother? My luggage from SAN-JFK-MAD was lost in NY so I without my main bag for two days upon arrival in Spain. They were helpful in tracking it and eventually delivered it to my hotel. The flub was because of a delay upon arrival in NYC. I had booked 2 1/2 hours between flights but we had to hold on the taxiway for an hour after landing while waiting for a clear gate which likely caused the baggage error.

Excellent check-in. Crew was good. Excellent communication from flight deck.

Great overall. There was a bit of turbulence so they could only serve water because too much turbulence for the carts. Was glad they prioritized safety though

Excellent flight, the planes were newer, they did a nice job with boarding, great service overall.

Great service. Flight was delayed while we sat on the runway for a couple of hours. Weather related. Staff made is very bearable. The steward servicing the first class cabin was exceptional. Thank you! 💗

5 hours of delay that could've been much shorter if Delta had taken the 1 hour delay they imposed on the flight before boarding to run any of the plane checks required for flight to find the hydraulic issue that required nearly 3 hours to fix. $24 of meal credit buys a sandwich and a soft drink. Poor communication within the terminal about what gate we'd be re-boarding from and when we'd be re-boarding.

Amazing flight! I have never noticed the uniforms of the attendants before in twenty years of flying except today when one female had the most amazing dress on. It was beautifully designed and showed she was in charge. I never dreamed I would google who designed Delta uniforms . The ultimate compliment is when another woman admires your outfit. . I hope your designer puts it on the market

It would be nice if was given wires ear buds. Overall was a good experience was able to sleep on the plane

My flight was 6 pm 6/6. Every hour they delayed it again - air condition issues then no pilot then the crew had worked too many hours and cancelled the flight at 11 pm. Sent customers to NJ a 45 minutes uber ride to a hotel. Had to be back by 5 am for a 7 am flight and again no pilot etc with another three hours of delays.

It was very pleasant. The staff and crew are very polite.

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

Customer service by Susan of Alaskan Air was outstanding. We missed our flight out of JFK. She got us rebooked the following day. Way to go Susan.

We boarded an hour and a half late because a coffee maker leaked in the plane. Then we had to wait for awhile to get off the plane because another plane was in our spot at the terminal. I had plans when I landed that I had to skip so it was pretty disappointing.

We moved from the international terminal to a new location. I think there are still some bugs to work out . We didn’t receive check in notification and had to scramble to find it but i think it will work out

Liked the crew. Seats were uncomfortable during the last few hours of the 11 hour flight. Better selection of movies .

The temperature on the plane was too cold and the food was not very good. Everything else was good.

We had lie flat seats, which are nice to have for overnight flights. Economy was almost empty, so many there had entire rows to themselves

The service was great and the crew was so friendly and attentive!

Flight attendants were friendlier than on previous flight from HNL-BOS

Flight was on time. Boarding was smooth. Flight attendants were friendly and efficient. Entertainment system was broken for all passengers on the left side of the aisle. I would prefer if meals were not served on red eye flights. No one should need to dine at that time and it is disturbing for those passengers trying to sleep.

Gate agent did not hold flight for connection, provided no assistance to get new flight

Evidently, my seat had the only broken TV. I couldn’t plug it in, get it to come on, or watch anything, and of course, no one could fix it while we were on the plane. The service was good and the boarding was quick

United airlines, mediocre at best. No issues , nothing great . Worked for me

Efficient, calm when things were delayed and kept us regularly informed of what was happening.

it was so bad. I tried to board my flight from vancouver to saskatoon. And to my surprise they did not board me cause the flight was changed and no email was send to me. and on my boarding pass which i got from seattle says different flight. I did not knew anyone from Vancouver, air canada crew was rude, i asked for today flight but they were rude and i had early morning dental appointment in saskatoon. I was so much in pain and my whole day is wasted today. and i suffered alot. They did provide me hotel but they did not provide me any food. I am really really disappointed first time had so bad experience with air canada. I may think twice to book it again. If i can get any reply or any composition that would be great. Thanks

It was fine, definitely older planes with no charging or anything. There’s no entertainment set up on board, but it is nice that they allow you to access the in flight entertainment from your phone without having to pay for the Wi-Fi and they do offer free texting.

Boarding was mayhem. Late boarding by 15 minutes because of lack of staff (missing 1 flight attendant. We had to wait for an arrival of another plane before we could board). Flight was a little rough, but cannot blame on airlines.

Impressed with the service despite turbulence because of the weather. Both flights arrived before their scheduled times.

Very comfortable (upgraded to business class). The audio on my screen didn’t work, but I managed to play the audio through my phone while watching the screen.

They cancelled my flight and downgraded me to economy and only gave me $250 for the downgrade

Loved the staff, boarding and drink options! Wish the comfort of the seat could have been better nevertheless

The flight crew were friendly and attentive. Food was good and they passed out ice cream and drinks awhile after Lunch was done. The ice cream was a nice treat! I found several movies to watch during the flight. There was many movies and tv shows to choose from. We flew Premium economy and there was enough leg room to be comfortable. The seats were also comfortable. I would fly AA again if the airfare isn’t expensive.

The chair cushions may need an upgrade. I have been noticing they are so worn out, thin so you’d sit in a dip 😄. Other than that, all was an enjoyable trip. Thanks AA!

I’m impressed that we were on time in Sacramento after having a late departure in Newark and our made it. The staff was friendly and warm.

Cramped seats. FAA should make airlines have more legroom, for even short people complain

5.5 hour delay with no explanation on why, along with no proactive effort to reaccomodate me.

It was one of my worst flight ever. First they were changing the gate for at least 4 times, changing from gate D7 to D12 to D44. Considering the size of the Miami Airport, we are talking about long distance and the train at the airport was not working. Then the flight was delayed around one hour. Then finally we boarded into the plane and when everybody was seated, there was an announcement that there is an issue with one of the tire of the plane, so we all had to get out of the plane with our belongings, to replace the tire. So we had around 2.5-hour delay

Most miserable flight ever. We waited almost 2 hours on the runway because the flight was oversold. American offered $1200 credit. Then there was some nonsense about weight distribution. Ridiculous. No food for 8 plus hours on the flight. I will be writing a letter.

Honestly, I haven’t flown American in years, probably due to the pandemic and my being unable to travel for certain periods in the last two years, but it was a good experience to dig out or obtain a new American Airlines account after many years of traveling for business with American in the past.
