HAWAIIAN AIRLINES - HONOLULU TO LONG BEACH

HAWAIIAN AIRLINES
HONOLULU TO LONG BEACH

I don't mind giving up the Lay Flat seats on Hawaiian Airlines if I can fly into Long Beach rather than Los Angeles LAX.  Just love the ease and laid back vibe of Long Beach.  Service on this flight was as you would expect from Hawaiian.  Just the basics with nothing to remember.  Food however was better than normal.  Actually liked the Lasagna.

HAWAIIAN AIRLINES - HONOLULU TO LAS VEGAS

Comfortable ride with great service on this flight to Las Vegas.  Flight Attendants were really nice and the breakfast was actually eatable.  Keep improving Hawaiian Air.  You can do it!

HAWAIIAN AIRLINES - LONG BEACH TO HONOLULU

I love the Long Beach airport.  What a joy compared to LAX.  The open air, no jet ways and laid back vibe is perfect when you are traveling on business or pleasure.  Service on Hawaiian Airlines was really good on this flight with the Flight Attendants providing great service.  Food however was the same for Hawaiian.  Shitty!

LOVE flying into Long Beach rather than LAX.  Only drawback is the Hawaiian Airlines flights use smaller planes with seats that don't lay flat.  Kinda like taking an InterIsland flight between Honolulu and Maui First Class.  Food as with all Hawaiian flights sucks.  Worst food in the skies year after year.  When you arrive in Long Beach there are not jetways and the portable ramps are exposed to the weather.  That's ok with me as baggage claim and car rentals are a breeze in Long Beach.  Walk across the street and grab your car without boarding a bus or train.  So convenient!

HAWAIIAN AIRLINES - NEW YORK (JFK) TO HONOLULU

HAWAIIAN AIRLINES
NEW YORK (JFK) TO HONOLULU

Paid a fortune for a First Class seat from New York to Honolulu on Hawaiian Airlines.  My lay flat seat was broken and would not go back so it pushed me towards the front.  The seat would go back and forth on its own and I really had very little control on what it would do.  Worst part is that when the seat locked in a forward position, I couldn't get out to go to the bathroom.  It really took some acrobatics to get in and out of the seat.  I reported this twice to the Flight Attendants and they didn't seem to care or offer any solutions.  They simply said they "reported it".  Once again the food sucked.  Some of the worst First Class dining in the skies.  Food is not even worth serving in Coach.  Service on Hawaiian is minimal with the crew rarely refilling drinks and never going the extra mile to provide a high level of service.  Seems most do the minimal possible and then hideout in the galley.
