i think so, or hope so at least 😕
the destination says honolulu so i assume there's only one main honolulu airport
you might want to try www.travelzoo.com for some deals... they didn't have any specials on my dates tho 🙁
anyone know of a good tourist guide site that is like www.cheapovegas.com ?
also, what are some good places to eat at in oahu? i want to try all kinds of good food, whether it's one of a kind pizza only made in hawaii or sushi...i'm open to anything as long as there's not too much veggies. Bargain cheapo restaurants would be nice also 😉.

not necessarily. we went last year and are going back next month and getting married there next june...
it all depends on what you do, where you go to eat, etc. Some of the best meals we had were at "hole-in-the-wall" places where all the locals told us to eat! We ate a meal at our resort and it was the most expensive meal we have ever eaten, but we expected that.
Also, we didnt really do any excursions with tour groups because there was so much to explore on our own. that saved us a lot of money as well.
It also depends on where you want to go and what your tastes are! post and we will answer!

we spent about $4000 last year, but we got hosed on a rental car because someone coughlolacough wanted a Jeep. This time the rental car is less than half the price 😀.
Get this book: http://www.wizardpub.com/oahu/oahu.html
The Big Island version helped us an unbelievable amount. It will let you know about places that some locals didn't know existed.
EDIT: Just saw it isn't coming out until Oct 04 🙁
hi another question, should i rent a car for the whole 5 days or just 2-3 days because it seems a lot of the attractions are within walking distance and could take up the whole day... and parking is 9-12 bucks a day 🙁
i'd like to save as much as possible, but i will be spending liberally on the food 🙂

oh man. i've been considering selling all my stuff and moving out to hawaii. i've got a friend who can store my computer and maybe half my clothes indefinitely. sleeping on the beach is no problem. natives, are there sh!t jobs out there available for unskilled people (me)? it'd be so nice. so, so nice.
locals, how hot is the rag selection? does wax trickle fast (<two weeks) from the bay? what about movies? you got movies? indy movies? i need that sh!t to survive nevermind this house and a car gig. thast boring.
ahhhhhh how much money do you think i'd need (not including airfare) to get a room(yes it can be in a poor neighborhood) and eat for like...6 weeks? i can definitely hustle my way into a job waiting tables or making sandwiches that fast.
ok, if you're a local and you answer my questions i'll shower you with authentic vermont cheeses and maple syrups.*
*if i come out there

^ thinking Maui --> Renaissance Wailea (coworker of my fiancee is from HI so he recommended Wailea). I think we're hitting Maui, Oahu, and the big island for a few... not exactly sure how much we can get done in ~10-12 days... do you think we can hit all 3 ?
Haven't booked a single thing.. was hoping Liberty Travel can help us out since they should be passing on the cost to the hotel, etc. instead of us... right ?
The worst part of planning a trip to HI is that we have no idea when we should book the hotel UP TO... since we are likely island-hopping... :| How do you guys deal with island hopping and booking around it ?
