Hawaiian Airlines has shared its new schedule, increasing Sydney–Honolulu services from five per week to daily flights from 18 December 2025 – 31 January 2026 to coincide with the busy travel season between the two holiday hotspots.

The seasonal flights and increased services are a response to strong seasonal demand for travel between Honolulu and Sydney during the winter/summer seasons in each respective hemisphere.

Hawaiian Airlines offers economy and premium seating from Sydney and also introduced complimentary high-speed Starlink Wi-Fi on its Airbus A330 fleet last year.

The full-service airline also plans to operate its newest flagship aircraft, the Boeing B787-9 Dreamliner, on the Honolulu-Sydney route – the carrier’s longest – in the future.

Hawaiian also recently announced its seasonal nonstop service between New Zealand and Hawaiʻi would start again from 18 November 2025, linking Auckland and Honolulu directly with thrice-weekly services.

Alaska Airlines acquired Hawaiian Airlines in 2024 as HA also marked 20 years of flying to Australia last year.

“These schedule enhancements reflect our commitment to providing convenient, comfortable travel during the busiest travel period of the year.”
