Honolulu & Oahu from Dallas-Fort Worth, Nov 14–23: $2,662 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- $498 per person, $163 under the typical $661 fare
- Oasis Hotel Waikiki: 7.9 from 1,515 reviews, free cancellation
- Highs of 81–82°F and big-wave season on the North Shore
The catch: The flight stops once and takes 11h 8m, the normals show drizzle most days, and a checked bag is about $160 for two extra.
Worth it if you want nine warm days in Waikiki at a low fare; skip it if an 11h 8m one-stop flight is a dealbreaker.
Worth it if a one-stop flight works for you. The trip is $2,662 for two, all in: United flights at $996, 9 nights at Oasis Hotel Waikiki at $1,439 and its $227 resort fee, with taxes and fees included. It runs Nov 14–23, 2026, on United with one stop, and a checked bag and spending money aren't in that total.

Why now
At $498 per person, the United fare is $163 below the typical fare on this route, which is $661. That's 25% less, and it's the lowest fare we've seen in 30 days. Across the 12 offers we checked, fares ran from $498 to $674. For two, the whole trip comes to $2,662 before you go: flights, 9 nights at Oasis Hotel Waikiki and its $227 resort fee, with taxes and fees included. November is big-wave surf season on the North Shore, with humpback whales offshore, and it comes before December's peak family rates. Typical highs are 81–82°F with lows near 73°F. The normals show drizzle on most days, though, so keep your beach plans flexible. These prices are what we found when we checked and they can change.
The kind of trip this is
This is a beach-and-history island trip with a city base. Spend mornings at Diamond Head or Hanauma Bay and afternoons on the sand in Waikiki, with one day for Pearl Harbor and one for the North Shore. Nine nights gives you room for an easy pace. It suits a couple or two friends who like doing everything on foot and mixing active days with lazy ones.
