Hawaiian Airlines to Suspend Incheon, Fukuoka, and Boston Routes in November
Hawaiian Airlines just announced a few changes to their network, with some routes being paused later this year. While it means certain flights will go away for now, it also means they’re shifting resources to destinations with higher demand.
Routes Being Suspended
Honolulu ⇄ Boston — last flight Nov 19, 2025
Honolulu ⇄ Fukuoka, Japan — last flight Nov 19, 2025
Honolulu ⇄ Incheon (Seoul), South Korea — last flight Nov 21, 2025
Where Hawaiian Airlines Is Adding Service
Honolulu ⇄ Sydney — expanded to daily flights during peak season (Dec 18 – Jan 31)
Honolulu ⇄ Papeete, Tahiti — now 2x weekly starting March 2026
Extra flights to Los Angeles and Seattle
Why the Route Changes Are Happening
Low demand on some long-haul routes since 2019
Focus on high-demand destinations to make better use of aircraft and crew
Seasonal increases where travelers are booking most
What This Means for Hawaii Travelers
If your trip includes one of the suspended routes, rebook early to secure alternatives
More flight options to Australia, Tahiti, and the U.S. West Coast
These shifts could open up new mileage redemption opportunities in the future
Scottie’s Take:
While it’s never fun to see routes go, this move helps Hawaiian strengthen where demand is strong. For Hawaii-based travelers, the added flights to Sydney, Tahiti, LA, and Seattle could mean better award seat availability, and more ways to put your points & miles to work.
