When this route gets cheap.
Fares bottom out in October around $196 and peak in September near $1,525, 678% dearer, across the 9 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking flies Alaska Airlines nonstop and takes about 6 hours outbound, on a 6-night trip. At $196 for 4,120 km each way, that works out to about $24 per 1,000 km flown. That is well under the $43 per 1,000 km that medium-haul fares on this board typically run. It is also the 2nd cheapest of the 9 routes of similar length we watch out of Los Angeles. The best time to be in Honolulu: Apr–Jun · Sep–Nov.

Good to know
LA → HNL, answered.
Is $196 a good price for Los Angeles to Honolulu?
Yes — the seasonal median for this route is around $415 round-trip. At $196 you're 53% below that, which we rate rare for this route.
What is the cheapest month to fly from Los Angeles to Honolulu?
Across 9 months of cached-fare history, Oct comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Honolulu are Apr–Jun · Sep–Nov — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book LA → Honolulu?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 9 months of cached fares, Oct comes out lowest on this route. Our guide Why flight prices change covers what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from Los Angeles to Honolulu?
Yes — the current board includes nonstop fares (Alaska Airlines). The outbound leg runs around 6 hours.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on 17 October). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
