You are kidding, right?YYay! Are fares lower than other carriers?

BDMX2, all the connections go through CA, but I'm able to book flights from cities like Phoenix, Las Vegas, Seattle, even Reno. There's nothing from the Midwest or East Coast to Hawaii that I can see so far. Seats are selling out fast. The Wanna Get Away fares have almost vanished. There has definitely been a pent up demand for Southwest to take on these routes.

$100 RT is unheard of.
OK, got my hold callback from SWA - they're saying it doesn't work like normal connections and that I need to get myself out to one of the CA airports. Doesn't make sense to me at all, but she didn't give me a lot of warm and fuzzy confidence.
Yeah, you would think, but I wasn't able to. That's OK, I got it all cobbled together. PHEW, quite the chore figuring it all out! I ended up booking a bunch of one ways since we're doing both the Big Island and Kauai. I already had our inter-island flight for our switch day booked on Hawaiian. And since SWA isn't servicing LIH yet, I booked LIH back to the main land on Hawaiian as well.You should be able to buy a ticket east coast to Hawaii as one record. Coming back, you have to buy a ticket hawaii to CA then CA home. A bit of a pain-and loses some of the savings.
