I finished booking our flight tickets to Hawaii for the Hilton Grand Vacation Suites at Honolulu in the coming summer. The booking was not the most ideal in terms of points redemption rate, but achieved one purpose to burn my Dad's last remaining 50,000 AAdvantage miles for two one-way coach fare flight tickets for flying from San Jose, California to Honolulu, Hawaii, incurring total $10 fee. Then I used the Alaska Airline companion ticket discount code to book two one-way tickets for flying from Honolulu carolina beach hotels to Oakland, California for $356 including fees.
I learned about Alaska Airline credit card after the AA redemption, otherwise could have purchase two RT Hawaii tickets using discount code for great prices. We do not have enough miles to book business class flight tickets to Hawaii this time.
Hawaiian Airlines Personal Credit Card with 35000 Hawaii miles, non-waivable $89 fee (target offer to Hawaiian Airlines member, just join for free. Isa's account has 0 HA miles and still receives offer via email.)
Alaska Airlines companion ticket offers the best deal for coach fare tickets for 2, because two round-trip tickets between San Francisco and Honolulu costs $833.84, or $417 per traveler during peak travel time. We decided to accumulate Alaska Airlines miles to redeem for its partner international flights, carolina beach hotels for example, Cathay Pacific. If you plan to fly roundtrip carolina beach hotels economy class to Hawaii with at least one additional person within the next 12 months, Alaska Airlines companion ticket helps.
