Traffic strategy between Hawaiian islands

I just told you about the traffic on the island of Hawaii. Now Xiang Xiao will tell you about the traffic between Hawaiian islands. Friends who want to go to Hawaii have a look at this. This is about your traffic.

Flights between Hawaiian islands

Usually, most flights to Hawaii will land at Honolulu International Airport in Oahu. If you go to a neighboring island for a holiday, you need to change to a short-haul route to Hawaii at the airport again.

There are about 30 short-haul flights between Honolulu International Airport and airports in neighboring islands such as Oshima, Maui and Echo, which take about 30 to 50 minutes. Most of these flights are punctual and easy to use. Some airlines even implement a free seat system. So many locals can find seats on the plane just like taking a bus.

1. Airlines operating short-haul routes between islands

Today, three major airlines operate short-haul routes between Honolulu International Airport and various island airports. They are Hawaiian Airlines, Icelandic Airlines and Mokule Airlines.

Among them, Hawaiian Airlines is the largest airline, with nearly 200 flights between six islands in Hawaii every day. ISLANDAIR mainly operates propeller machines, connecting small airports in Molokai and Lanai. And MOKULELEAIRLINE, who runs cheap air tickets.

2. Inter-island short-haul airline ticket purchase method

Tourists who plan to go to Honolulu (Oahu and adjacent islands) will generally buy international air tickets and packaged air tickets for short-haul routes at the same time according to their travel itinerary. However, if you decide to go to the neighboring islands temporarily after arriving in Hawaii, you must purchase short-distance air tickets between the islands separately. At this time, you can buy it online from the airline in official website or through the local travel agency. The fares of major airlines are similar, and the ticket prices in Hawaii mostly fluctuate with the number of remaining tickets.
