Fly from LA to Honolulu for $200 round trip

There is snow outside my window as I write this, so booking a last-minute trip to Hawaii next month sounds pretty great.

Round-trip flights from Los Angeles to Honolulu starting at $200 are available throughout February on various carriers, including Alaska Airlines.

Since this is not an advertised deal, we can't estimate how long it'll be around.

Deal basics

Airlines: Alaska Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines, United Airlines and Delta Air Lines.
Routes: From Los Angeles to Honolulu.
How to book: Directly with the airline.
Travel dates: February; blackout dates may apply.

Kudos to The Flight Deal, which first reported the Alaska deal.

From there, select your preferred round-trip flights from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL). Once you select a date, you'll find one-way flights starting at $99 or round-trip flights starting at $197, which are even cheaper than advertised.

Related: Honolulu will require 90-day minimum stays for Airbnbs and short-term rentals outside resort areas in October

Note that the cheapest flights are for Alaska's Saver fare type, which permits travelers one full-size carry-on item but charges $30 each way to check a bag. These fares are neither changeable nor cancelable. They do not offer seat selection. Consider upgrading to a Main fare for an extra $60 round-trip.
