Hawaiian Airlines’ seasonal nonstop service to Auckland, New Zealand, is set to return next month.
Officials with Alaska Airlines, which is in the process of merging with Hawaiian, said flights between Honolulu and Auckland will start Nov. 16 and continue through April 20, 2026. The service will operate three times weekly using Airbus A330 aircraft.
“We know Kiwi travelers have long awaited the return of our seasonal service, and our crews are thrilled to welcome them onboard once again with the authentic hospitality and care for which Hawaiian Airlines is known,” said Andrew Stanbury, regional director for the South Pacific for Alaska and Hawaiian, in a news release. “Now, thanks to the strength of our combined global network, every guest flying from Hawaii, the U.S. mainland, and New Zealand will have more options than ever to explore the world.”
Hawaiian has offered seasonal service to Auckland since March 2013.
Alaska officials pointed out that the Honolulu-Auckland service will operate during the Southern Hemisphere summer, allowing residents of Hawaii and the continental U.S. to explore New Zealand at its warmest and most active.
