I spoke with Brad on the Maliko Shuttle Bus today I meet him on Namotu Island Fiji a few years back. Brad works for Hawaiian Airlines tells me some good NEWS. Hawaiian Airlines will be flying out of Brisbane Airport direct to Honolulu Airport from early March 2013, three time a week then up to five time a week thats Gold. No more Gold Coast, Sydney; Sydney Honolulu I'll be shaving of heaps of travel time and money. As it's 19 hours of traveling at $2,200 worth. I should be saving around $800 and 7 hours.

And I've read November. But it will be easier for Qlders when the run does start up.
And as long as they have some good specials....
