Hawaiian Airline miles What can I do with them?

[PLANT]

Hi all,

I just joined and have the following trips booked:

1. Kona to Honolulu
2. LAX to Maui

What can I do with the miles?
Can I get them transferred to Velocity?
Can I merge them to some other program?

Please Assist?

A couple of years ago I transferred mine to a hotel partner. Can't remember which but I think it was either SPG or Hilton

Should be easy, you can call them up and ask them to put your velocity number in there. There is no facility on the web, you have to call them.

In general miles cannot be transferred between FFP's but you can earn as a partner to your FFP

From your recent posts you seem to have many FFPs' with low miles balances. From another thread

With airline partners you can fly an airline and may be able to collect frequent flyer miles with another airlines frequent flyer program. Some low cost fares can earn nil miles/points in your FFP, especially if not flown on your own airline. That said, a good indicator is always to look at the partners whose flights you can credit to the program of the airline you are flying with. The option to credit flights is typically a reciprocal benefit between FFPs.

Which leads to reciprocal benefit between FFPs:-.
Hawaiian is a Virgin Australia partner:- https://www.velocityfrequentflyer.com/content/Earn/Airlines/?icmpid=VFF_Earn_Airlines_VAFlydown
Hawaiian is a AA partner:- American Airlines | Airline Participants | AA.com Australia
But check if an eligible flight for miles earning

For example Alaska is a good FFP with a wide range of airline partners. Partners Overview | Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan

Deewhy thankyou for that done!
Note to others you get a long winded voice recording and told you may incur costs to change flight over the phone but eventually you press 1 and then 1 and a nice person will use your confirmation code to change Hawaiian miles to Velocity FF points
I am LAX to MAUI and KONA to Honolulu....not told that I would not receive miles in Velocity.

Points will not be earned on Reward Seat bookings or on fare classes other than as specified above. You can only earn points on Hawaiian Airlines operated flights.

Have you checked what fare booking class you have?

Well where do I look on online ticket for booking:
Says Coach/NONSTOP MLXweb\WEB????? Does that mean its 0.5 points or 1 point?
Second ticket: Coach/Nonstop Fare: VLWOWEB/WEB

Usually the first letter of the fare is the booking class. But the only way to 100% sure is ask the airline (do not rely on my opinion)
MLXweb = M booking class
VLWOWEB/WEB = V booking class
