Even though flights won't start until April from San Diego direct to Hawaii, tickets went on sale today! Woohoo!
When Southwest launched flights to Hawaii earlier this year, the only direct flights from California were from Oakland, San Jose and San Francisco.
So although it was nice and inexpensive, it was super inconvenient for those of us in Southern California.
Starting in April 2020, you will be able to fly from San Diego to Hawaii directly.
Booking opened today for flights through June 6, 2020 and even if you are just thinking about it, book tickets now and then cancel if you change your mind. Southwest has no cancellation fee and makes it super easy to change flights or get a refund entirely.
I entered some random dates for April 2020 and the flight search tool came up with one flight per day direct San Diego to Maui priced at $159 and $129 each way. Pretty sweet! If you have the points, it's just 8,188 points each way. Plus if you have the companion pass, that's just $143 round trip per person. Wow! If you don't have the companion pass yet, check out my blog post about how to get this deal.
But jump on this quickly, since we saw prices climb fast when Southwest launched. The easiest way to earn Southwest points is to open a Southwest credit card, here's my referral link if you need it.
If you need Southwest points, you can check out my past blog post about how to get Southwest points without flying.
