You should be able to get the best prices in airline travel to Hawaii anytime from mid January till mid April. That is their slow season if you want to call anytime kind of slow in Hawaii. I would wait till after the summer to really start looking daily for good airline prices. Also, if possible look at flying midweek too.I am planning a trip to hawaii in jan '09. any advice when to travel to get the best airline fares?
Unless a major airline comes into the Hawaii market, the prices will not be going down in the near future. If you were able to grab a ticket for $600 last month, you should've taken that one while you could beause you're unlikely to see it again.





The fares will normally go down a bit after the summer rush so logically you should be able to get something a bit more reasonable in October. However, with the monopoly that Hawaiian airlines is creating in Hawaii and the rising gas costs, anything that is ';normal'; isn't true anymore.





Good luck, happy hunting, and happy travels!
Prices will come down after college students start going back to school which is typically the first two weeks of January. But because of the loss of Aloha Airlines and ATA, and major airlines consolidating, prices will still be high.

Don't worry!! for best airfare please refer to this guidebook, it tells u where to search for cheap airfare. I saved $300 for my flight from San Fran to New York.
