Peak season
There’s no denying Hawaii is a tourist hot spot with millions of holidaymakers visiting there each year to enjoy its wonderful beaches and national parks. Of the six main islands: Hawaii, Maui, Molokai, Lanai, Oahu and Kauai, the most populous is Oahu and this is where flights to Hawaii touchdown in the capital of Honolulu.
Honolulu is where most first-time visitors choose to start exploring Hawaii with iconic Waikiki Beach, popular with sunbathers, divers, surfers and honeymooners from all over the world. The peak tourism season in Hawaii is from mid-December until mid-April, and when competition for cheap flights to Hawaii is high. Even though this coincides with the rainy season, the balmy temperatures around 27C / 28C attract visitors escaping the cold weather of the northern regions of the US. If you’re planning on booking a flight to Hawaii during this period, reservations need to be made well in advance as many hotels and resort get fully booked. Expect hikes in prices by airlines, tour and car rental companies too.
Off season
Hawaii doesn’t really have a low season but May, September, October, November (until the middle of the month) are quieter months when demand is slightly lower and you may pick up the cheap flights to Hawaii and discounted accommodation.

If weather is an important factor for your trip to Hawaii, use this chart to help with planning. For those seeking warmer temperatures, August is the ideal time of year to visit, when temperatures reach an average of 28.0 C. Travellers hoping to avoid the cold should look outside of January, when temperatures are typically at their lowest (around 23.0 C).
Hawaii only has two seasons, summer and winter and both are warm averaging between 22C and 30C year round. The winter months, mid-November to March are the busiest tourist wise and have considerably more rain, so aim to visit in the drier, sunnier months from April to mid-November. You’ll find the cheapest flights to Hawaii during this period, but hurricane season is also June to November which may disrupt travel plans.
