HNL-SFO/OAK Options

[N860CR]

I've booked myself a SYD-HNL-SYD on JQ for March/April next year and i'm considering adding on a side-trip to SFO.

The fares this fare in advance seem quite high, so I was hoping someone could give a bit of an insite on whats a fair price to pay for HNL-SFO/OAK-HNL. Average seems to be $500-$600.

Best choice for airlines? Price is the deciding factor.

Award flights seem to be ok value, 36,000 points return + $US5 taxes... except theres none available on the date I need for HNL-SFO

Hawaiian into SFO or Aloha into Oakland. You should be able to pick up seats for about $400 return.

No SC's or points but you get that nice "island" feel and who wants to fly AA anyway!

It seems NWA and Hawaiian are your cheapest options.

There's plenty of seats on the (random Mar/Apr) dates I tried - it may be tougher at weekends. Or pay an extra 7k points and go via LAX.
