Plane tickets to Hawaii from $1,177 – Compare and Save

Peak season Although Hawaii generally has great weather year round, the summer months of June through to August tend to be the best, with warm-hot sunny days and little chance of rain. This coincides with the United States long school holiday period, so if you are thinking to visit Hawaii to escape the winter cold back home, keep in mind that accommodation gets heavily booked out and you can expect crowds along the beaches and at most of the archipelago’s major sites. There is another peak in hotel prices during the United States winter school holidays over Christmas/New Year, with domestic tourists looking to escape the mainland cold. But if you opt for late January, you should avoid the biggest crowds and be able to take advantage of some good accommodation deals. Off season Both spring and autumn see far fewer other tourists throughout the archipelago, with the weather still warm enough to enjoy Hawaii’s island living. It’s also possible to secure some good flight and accommodation deals during these months, although you should try and avoid the last week in April/start of May when hotel prices see a sharp peak as Japanese arrive in Hawaii on their annual break.
