Hawaiian has round-trip flights from Austin (AUS) to Honolulu (HNL) for $304-$344, NONSTOP. Flights in October. Departures on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday. Very few extended weekends available. Origin/Destination reversible.
Note: Very limited date selection. Only available for the two weeks between October 23rd and November 5th, but it’s NONSTOP so it does have a premium to it.
Additional savings: Sam’s Club is selling $500 Hawaiian Airlines gift cards for $449 [linked]. You can save an additional $50 on Hawaiian Airlines if you travel often enough or with a big enough group to burn through the gift card credit.
Delta, American, and United have round-trip flights from Austin (AUS) to Grand Cayman (GCM) for $219-$225 with a connection. Flights August to October. Extended weekends available. Origin/Destination reversible.
A Carry-on bag and also a personal item is allowed for free on Delta or American. United has bag fees. You can avoid paying for seat selection by accepting the randomly assigned seat at the gate.
United has round-trip flights from Austin (AUS) to Honolulu or Maui (HNL, OGG) for $313-$336 with a connection. Flights August to November. No Weekends. Departures on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Origin/Destination reversible. United is starting to match Southwest’s sale that started a few days ago.
Note: The majority of United’s fares are Basic Economy. We have seen a few Main Cabin fares on some of these dates however.
United’s “Basic Economy” fares do not allow for a free carry-on bag. Only a personal item (like a small laptop bag) is free. Seats are randomly assigned for free prior to boarding. If you have the United Explorer credit-card, use the “free checked bag” perk.
The personal item size on United is smaller (9 x 10 x 17 inches) than Frontier or Spirit (8 x 13 x 18 inches).

Southwest is having a 40% off sale on all their flights. Starting today (06/07) until the end of Thursday (06/09). We began our coverage last night, before the sale was officially announced. Those fares that we already mentioned are still available, but expect prices and availability to fluctuate greatly.
In this post, we’ll provide a list of every fare that we’re seeing that is priced below (or close to) its historical moving averages. This way, you can quickly cut away to the fares that are worthwhile and “really” on sale. List provided on our website in the full blog post (below, if you’re reading the full post now).
Key Notes: Sale covers mid-August to November. Ends Thursday. They provide a coupon-code that you don’t really need to plug in: “FALL40”.
