SYDNEY — Australian travellers looking to escape the winter blues in 2026 can now snag a bargain, as Hawaiian Airlines launches its highly anticipated Boxing Day sale. The carrier has slashed economy fares, offering direct return flights from Sydney to Honolulu starting at just $849.
This limited-time offer is designed for early-year getaways. To secure the lowest fares, travellers should look for flight dates between February 5 and February 14, 2026.
While the sale is part of the Boxing Day rush, the booking window is extremely narrow. Travellers have until December 29, 2025, to lock in their seats, though industry experts warn that the $849 allocation is likely to sell out well before the deadline.
Unlike many “budget” international fares, Hawaiian Airlines’ promotional price remains a full-service experience.
The $849 return fare includes:
Renowned onboard service.
Complimentary island-inspired meals.
No change fees (fare differences may apply).
With Hawaii typically commanding much higher prices during peak seasons, this sub-$900 deal represents one of the strongest trans-Pacific offers currently on the market.
