Due to rises in COVID-19 cases and declining demand, Hawaiian Airlines temporarily suspended select service to Asia.
The airline temporarily suspended its five-times-weekly, non-stop service between Honolulu (HNL) and Incheon (ICN), with service expected to resume May 1. Impacted travelers receive refunds or accommodations on alternate flights.
“We believe a temporary service suspension is prudent given the escalation of COVID-19 in South Korea and the impact the illness has had on demand for leisure travel from that country,” said Peter Ingram, president and CEO, Hawaiian Airlines. “We will continue to closely monitor the situation and extend our support for public health efforts to contain the virus. We apologize for this inconvenience and are working to support impacted guests.”
Most recently, Hawaiian Airlines also suspended a portion of its flights between Kona (KOA) and Honolulu and Tokyo (HND). Affected flights resume April 30–May 2. Select new service between Honolulu and Tokyo, originally announced in November 2019, becomes available March 28.
“Japan is a vitally important market for our airline, and we have been looking forward to launching our third non-stop flight between Honolulu and Haneda, which offers more convenient connecting times for our guests,” said Ingram. “Unfortunately, the spread of COVID-19 beyond Asia has diminished near-term global travel demand, so we are balancing some of our Haneda capacity by suspending for about a month our hybrid service between Haneda and Honolulu and Kona.”

May 14, 2025Hotel Van Zandt Review
One step onto Austin’s Rainey Street and you’ll feel like you’ve joined the cool kids at the best playground in the city. Just behind the cottage bars, pint-sized skyscrapers soar. One of them, Hotel Van Zandt, the Rainey district's pièce de resistance, beckons with a song-like spirit —apropos because the independently owned property, rife with music motifs, was named after beloved singer-songwriter Townes Van Zandt. Sixteen stories high, the hotel embodies Austin’s lust for music, manifesting with a vinyl corner; trumpet chandeliers; myriad musical references; replica vintage posters in frames; and its own live music venue, which doubles as its acclaimed restaurant, Geraldine’s. Don’t miss the mesmerizing installation of colorful origami-like birds composed from vinyl records that flitter from an old phonograph.
