In this video, you’ll see what it’s like to fly from Alaska to Hawaii.
This unusual air link has only been around since 2007 when Alaska Airlines started serving Honolulu from Anchorage.
This journey, which was part of our #WildernessToWaikiki adventure involved a First Class trip between the largest cities in the two newest states: Anchorage in Alaska and Honolulu in Hawaii. The flight from Alaska to Hawaii takes six hours, crosses through two time zones, and covers nearly 2,800 miles.
In this video about Alaska Airlines’ service from Alaska to Hawaii, you’ll see the lounge, food, drinks, inflight entertainment, and seat available to passengers plying the Pacific between the Last Frontier and Paradise!
Watch to the end for a rare “GreenerGrass Editorial” in which I share my views on the current “State of Travel,” for what they’re worth.

The alternates are SFO, SEA, CDB, ADQ en route. As you approach the islands it changes to other Hawaiian airports like LIH, OGG, KOA and lesser known JRF. This was one of my routes with Alaska Airlines during my 28 year career with them. I always loved going to the islands from ANC. A nice one day getaway for a pilot and crew!

This was years ago but I never forgot it as I am still working hard to become a pilot. Truly amazing service at Alaska airlines

737-NG got 180 minutes ETOPS so technically, can return to Anchorage if less than halfway there or continue to Honolulu. However: There is Kodiak AK that can be used, Midway that can be used. Also consider that depending on winds and location at time of engine failure Vancouver or Seattle might be within 3 hours.

I thought about Kodiak and Midway also. Its seems however that Midway would always be much further away than Honolulu or other Hawaii island airports in the case of an in-flight emergency. Of course it could still be an option if for some reason none of the Hawaii airports were available or the usual flight path was forced westward for some reason. The runway at Midway is certainly long enough.

I have lived in Alaska for a long time but when I moved here I was surprised by the Alaska Hawaii connections. One of the big factors is work, a lot of Hawaiians come to Alaska to work but go home often. My husbands family moved from Alaska to Hawaii for college and back to Alaska for work. Anchorage public radio even has a Hawaiian music show and Juneau a Hawaiian restaurant. Thanks for the great video's!

She flew PDX to HNL via ANC in a jump seat on a mail flight. She said it was a scary flight and that is coming from a woman who was a flight attendant with pan am who would fly r&r flights into Vietnam.

I use to fly Hawaiian Airlines from Anchorage to Honolulu. It was great. They made me feel like I was in Hawaii as soon as I got on the airplane. Back in 2006ish Hawaiian Airlines then had a charter airline take over that route for a year. It felt like a glorified cattle car. Then Alaska started to fly that route and that is what we have been flying since then.

A) The dedication to serving veterans of the armed services B) The number of musical instruments on board c) The inclusion of Ginger Ale on the drinks menu. The highlight, for me, was hearing the Creative Director directing creatively. That lady is sweet AND sassy! Your shirt was fine for flying TO Hawai'i, Jeb. I think Sarah may be the lead to follow for the flight back.

Western Airlines started the route in the early 1960's with Boeing 707's. The passenger load factors were pretty abysmal. Sometimes as few as 30 passengers on a 200 seat airplane. Saving grace was US Mail subsidies. This lasted until deregulation in the late 1970's.

I was scheduled to work that whole summer in Anchorage however halfway through was transferred to a program in Hawaii. On the way back I had to get back to Anchorage to catch my original itinerary back to Iowa. Honolulu to Anchorage to Minneapolis to Waterloo was a long travel day that helped drive my love of commercial aviation. Thank You for a trip down memory lane.

My first flight on a jet was on an Alaska Airlines Convair 880 in 1966. As I recall, it was their only jet at the time and got quite a workout flying from Alaska to the Pacific Northwest and back. I was 14 back then. My outbound flight was a military charter from Elemendorf AFB to McChord AFB in Tacoma. My return was a scheduled flight from SEA to ANC. Alaska made good use of that jet. It's so amazing to me to see how this airline has grown into what it is today, especially as so many others have come and gone!

You got to enjoy that beautiful American flag wingtip for 6 hours. Thank you for also talking about the airlines history.

FYI. Back in the late 19702 and early 1980s, Western Airlines offered a nonstop flight between ANC and HNL. They flew the route using a DC-10 and it was heavy military personnel and cargo between the two states. I think it may have been seasonal service back then. If any WA folks out there remember this service, please give us an update. Western was struggling in the late seventies and moved their main hub from Denver to Salt Lake City but was finding niche routes like ANC and HNL.

Western started ANC-HNL flights in July 1969. From October 1980 to October 1981 the flight operated HNL-ANC-LGW. When I joined Western in 1983 the flight was year round 3 or 4 days a week. Delta continued to fly the route for a short time after the merger with service ending January 1988.

Hi Jeb - just discovered your channel, and am enjoying your videos! Back in 1978, my partner flew ANC-HNL on Western Airlines; they had a triangle fare (LAX-ANC-HNL) which was only about $50 more than a two-leg trip. Glad Alaska has brought this route back!

I have a bush plane in anchorage, it would be an amazing experience to take you flying! 50ft over the rivers, or 10k above mount Denali, even land on gravel bars and do some fishing!
