Sooooooooooooo,
With my carry/slop in for next month, looks like I'll need a 4 day and then one of the quickies out to the Hawaiian Islands. I've done HNL enough, plus we are leaving the Princess K.
So, the question is:
LIH
or
KOA
for the filler. (I've done OGG......nice but I'm in the get outta the rut mode)

Do you know I never really envisioned doing an ocean crossing from New York City's John F. Kennedy airport to London Heathrow would start with me trying not to barf because someone took a dump in the bathroom next to the computer room. I don't think there is a fan in the bathroom, just the giant metal one in the printer room. It had to be awkward when you opened that door and noticed 14 people standing at the printers looking at you.

If you don't say, "I can't feel my face" after a walk around, you ain't a REAL Delta Dude (now)

Is it worse than JFK?

First couple of years on the 757 all I did was redeyes back to DTW off the west coast. I'd always die about the time you could see Chicago on the horizon and going past MSP, where you'd be done if you were based there.
Lets start the bidding now.............I want the PLAY'ER to be FTB, or Clamp

Both good but I prefer KOA especially with the new hotel. Descent places to eat and imbibe are close and the weather is generally better than LIH. Golf? Definitely KOA. I can barely ever hold either one anymore though. GUA is it for me. Why can't they build a decent time trip with that thing?
I agree with ya on building a better trip. Granted it was out of the mid-west, but we did:
1: late afternoon MSP to the west coast
2: west coast to Hawaii
4: red eye back to the west coast
5: early morning departure back to MSP or DTW back to MSP.
25 to 28 hour trip and commutable on both ends. Didn't get much better.......but then Alaska entered the picture
