The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- $630 per person, $363 below the typical fare on this route
- Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Waikiki scores 8 from 1,298 reviews
- Highs of 81–82°F and big-wave surf season on the North Shore
The catch: It's one stop and 10h 11m on the way out, the normals show drizzle most days, and a checked bag is about $160 for two.
Worth it if you want nine warm days of beach and history in Waikiki; skip it if a 10-hour connecting flight or light drizzle would spoil it.
Worth it if you can live with one stop. The total for two is $2,851: flights at $1,260, plus 9 nights at Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Waikiki at $1,374 and its $217 resort fee, with taxes and fees included. You'd fly Nov 14–23, 2026 on American, operated by SkyWest Airlines as American Eagle, with one stop, not nonstop.

Why now
The fare is $630 per person. That's $363 below the typical fare on this route, or 37% under it, and the lowest we've seen in 30 days. Across the 12 offers we checked, fares ran from $630 to $1,042, so this one sits at the bottom. Mid-November is big-wave surf season on the North Shore, with humpback whales offshore, and it comes before December, when Oahu has its peak family season and highest rates. Expect highs of 81–82°F and lows near 73°F, with drizzle in the normals for most days. Nine nights gives you time for Waikiki mornings, a Pearl Harbor day and a trip up to Haleiwa without rushing. Prices are all-in as we found them when we checked, and they can change.
The kind of trip this is
This is a beach and city vacation with real history mixed in: surf lessons, snorkeling, Pearl Harbor, a crater hike and food trucks up north. It suits a couple or two friends who like an easy pace, with walkable Waikiki as home base and a few big day trips. Nine nights leaves room for slow mornings and a lazy afternoon or two.

Is it worth it?
Yes, if one stop doesn't bother you. The fare is $630 per person, 37% under the typical $993 on this route, and Waikiki highs run 81–82°F. The trade-off is a 10h 11m flight out and drizzle in the normals.

Do I need a passport?
No. Hawaii is in the US, so you'll pay in US dollars and won't need a passport.
What's the weather like?
Typical highs are 81–82°F with lows near 73°F for Nov 14–23. The normals show drizzle most days and one overcast day, so bring a light rain layer.
