In order to do it you would need basically a sunday through wednesday. Go to HNL sunday take the island hopper monday which gets in tuesday then fly back to NY(or elsewhere) on Wednesday.

I don't get it. What's the allure? You don't actually get off the plane?

You do in every other island in Y. I think in F you can get off on each island.
Can also stopover on an island.

For me, convincing my wife is the easy part, the toughest thing for me would be taking time off at work, all while working out some potential trips for my PTO

BOB is on the top of my list.

There is a flight late btw Motze shabbat PPT-HNL
( with my wife)

09/06 EWR-HNL is I5 and 09/10 NRT-ORD has J and F.

Alas nothing 09/07 from HNL-GUM on the hopper.  Well HNL-MAJ and PNI-TKK-GUM have space, but nada from MAJ--KWA-KSA-PNI
