The 5 Cheapest Flights from Charlotte to Hawaii

Between the Appalachian Mountains and the Coastal Plain, North Carolina certainly boasts some impressive landscapes of its own, but how about trading them for the volcanic beaches and lush forests of Hawaii this year?

5. Fly from Charlotte to Hilo for as low as $934 round trip

The fifth cheapest Hawaiian destination for Charlotte residents to fly to is Hilo, a vibrant town located on the eastern side of Big Island. And the town itself is certainly worth exploring for a couple of days — especially the farmers market and the Imiloa Astronomy Center — but it's easy access to the island's spectacular sights, like the Rainbow Falls, the dormant Mauna Kea volcano and the Boiling Pots of Wailuku River State Park, that make United's awesome deals on round trips with stops to Hilo even more appealing.

4. Fly from Charlotte to Kailua-­Kona for as low as $903 round trip

For travelers who want to visit Big Island on a tighter budget, Delta offer a nice alternative to Hilo in the form of round trips to Kailua­-Kona, on the western side of the island, that cost only around $798. Once there, you'll still be within reach of the aforementioned natural wonders, but also enjoy top­notch cultural attractions such as Hulihe'e Palace and Kaloko-­Honokohau National Historical Park. Make sure to grab a cup of world-­famous, freshly­-roasted Kona coffee before setting out to explore the town!

3. Fly from Charlotte to Lihue for as low as $880 round trip

Moving on from Big Island to the smaller island of Kaua'i to the northwest, Delta's low­-priced flights with stops are the cheapest option for Charlotte residents who want to get to know Hawaiian culture and history through a visit to the Menehune Fish Ponds or the Hauola Place of Refuge. You can save up to hundreds by opting for a Monday departure and a Wednesday return and by flying in early September, so put those extra dollars toward exploring the whole island — the majestic Wailua Falls, the Huleia National Wildlife Refuge and much more await!

2. Fly from Charlotte to Kahului for as low as $698 round trip

If you want to stay active throughout your vacation with hiking, windsurfing and kayaking, Maui may just be the destination for you. Head straight to the black sand beaches for any water sport you can imagine, or try Haleakala National Park for trails that take visitors past stunning alpine landscapes, lava caves and waterfalls. Need a break? Sit back and enjoy traditional Polynesian singing and dancing at one of the island's many luaus. You'll find the lowest airfare rates in mid-June, usually with United.

1. Fly from Charlotte to Honolulu for as low as $638 round trip

United wins the prize again by offering amazingly budget­-friendly connections to Honolulu, a heaven for surfers and a real treasure trove of museums, monuments and war memorials. Before answering the call of the waves and tropical cocktails at Waikiki Beach, check out the USS Arizona Memorial, the Diamond Head volcanic tuff cone, and the Makapuu Lighthouse Trail for a mix of stunning landscapes and insight into local culture and history. All for just $638 round trip — or perhaps even less if you plan your vacation for late May, when airfare rates are low.
