NOT always.
I don't check religiously every day so I'm not putting down money, but I check about every other week and there has ALWAYS been something open in the coming week

Looks like UA just posted lots of TK availability out of SFO, especially in 2016.  Even J available on many dates. 
Good flight option (through IST) from West Coast to TLV.

It seems like hnl-ewr saver availability opens up almost all of the time around the week before the flight. At least since I've been checking the past few weeks.
Anyone know if the end of August is peak time for that route?

HNL will obviously be busiest, but that's the only one with a direct from NY flight. The BI will be quietest.

I've found for August dates that it's been a bit easier to get to HNL with a stop from the east coast then to LIH or KOA. That is without routing thru HNL of course.

I don't think that there is any lie-flat from LAX-LIH direct. Either 757-300 or 737-900

ETA as of now there is at least one saver business seat on that route Aug 25, 26, 27
