This was shot on my last trip to the Big Island this month. I paid $49 to fly each way from Honolulu to Hilo and back.<\/p>\n<p>This month for my next trip to Hilo airfares have spiked up with the cheapest being $58 each way on the major carriers, of which we have 2&#8230; Hawaiian Airlines and Mesa&#8217;s <b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.iflygo.com\/\">Go-Mokulele Airlines<\/a><\/b>. Both offer jet service to the major airports on 4 Hawaiian Islands. Lihue, Honolulu, Kahului, Kona and Hilo.  Want to fly to the smaller airports? <b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.islandair.com\/\">Island Air<\/a><\/b> offers flights to Molokai, Kapalua, and Lanai in addition to Honolulu, Lihue, Kahului and Kona. Their lowest fare is about $78 each way to the smaller airports.<\/p>\n<p>All of the interisland airlines now charge a $10 fee for the first piece of checked in luggage. Taxes and other fees also apply to each ticket purchased.<\/p>\n<p>Overall the airlines have been nickel and diming customers for several years now since the price of fuel has widely fluctuated.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy the video.
