Nonstops, Taiwan to Hawaii?
Are there any nonstops, or good one-stops, Taiwan to any of the Hawaiian
Islands other than Oahu? -- outside of taking the straightforward Taipei to Honolulu nonstop via Delta or China Air and then island-hopping from HNL, that is. (For various reasons I might prefer to take a short hop from TPE to some other Asian transfer point, then a long nonstop direct to the final Hawaii destination.) And if the final choice were TPE-HNL via Delta or China Air, which one might be preferable (in Bus/First Class)? Thanks for any info. |

I believe that only Oahu (HNL) is designated as a "International
Airport" complete with US Customs officials. Thats why you must connect through HNL to get to another island when traveling NonStop from a foreign country. |

So that may be part of the reason (along with more limited airport sizes and facilities) why one can get direct flights to some of the other islands coming from the U.S. but not from more distant trans-Pacific starting points. |

You believe incorrectly That might be news to Kona International and JAL http://www6.hawaii.gov/dot/airports/...a_airlines.htm That was my first guess. There might be others. |

Nope. HNL isn't the only HI airport with international flights. |
