TINKERTOY ..... the 1 & only
I have been to Hawaii 5 times and I can tell you this. Airfare can be had r/t for about $700 or less each(from the East Coast) depending upon when you go . Hotel rooms in Hawaii, regardless of the island are very expensive; on the order of around $300 a day for a beach front hotel but less for hotels a few blocks from the beach, maybe $180 to $250.

If you go on a Hawaii cruise you will still need to spend the money for airfare to Honolulu where the cruises begin. You can get a cabin on a Norwegian ship for $700 (inside cabin) to $900. (outside cabin, or about $1300 for a balcony cabin.

So for 6/7 days in a beach front hotel you will need maybe $1500 to $1800 (for 2), plus another $1400 for air. Total about $3,000.

For a cruise $2000 for outside cabin, plus $1400 for air. Total about $3400. But on the cruise all of your food is paid for (you will have to pay another $150 for gratuities). You can eat for cheap in Hawaii as they have fast food places, like Denny's, McD's, and other such places in the shopping centers and markets. (don't eat in the hotel restaurants). They also have places like Ruby Tuesdays and Chiles'.

The other benefit of the cruise is that it will take you to several islands. If you stay in a hotel you can fly commuter flights between islands for about $60 each. But those flights can add a lot to your trip cost.

I go to Hawaii about 3 times a year for pleasure/business for the past 20 years. The best hotel deals can be made through your travel agent or internet website that bundles airfare with hotels, including cruises.

For Transpacific/Hawaii cruises, check with your travel agent and add a pre or post cruise hotel stay. They are sometimes expensive but they'll also take care of your ground transportation to/from the hotel/airports.

Good Luck and have fun.

The best thing you can do is find a good travel agent. A good travel can always get you a good deal.
