Flight Deals from New York City to Kahului from $310

The flight from New York City to Kahului covers about 4,920 miles, but there is no scheduled nonstop service on this route — it requires a connection.

Methodology

Flight times and distances come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.

There are no non-stop flights from New York City to Kahului; the quickest way is a one-stop routing on Alaska Airlines via Honolulu (HNL), taking 12 hours 29 minutes in total — a 10h 53m leg, a 52-minute layover, and a 44-minute connection. United offers the next-fastest option via San Francisco at 12 hours 37 minutes. Alaska, United, and American all serve the route with connections through their West Coast and mainland hubs.

Methodology

Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

Kahului Airport offers taxis right outside baggage claim, with a fare of about $13 to Kahului town and $3.00 per mile metered, making it the fastest and most direct option. Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are available with a dedicated pickup area, often rated highly by users. Maui Bus provides public transit on Route 35 (Haiku Islander) and Route 40 (Upcountry Islander), both stopping at the airport every 90 minutes, but luggage is restricted to one small bag under the seat. Rental cars are extremely popular and are accessed via a short train from the terminal to a large consolidated facility; most visitors to Maui choose a rental car to explore the island.

Fares from New York City to Kahului are lowest in late January, around $527. January is the cheapest month overall, averaging $548, followed by February ($557) and October ($602). July is the most expensive month at about $749, and fares peak in late December at about $771. The yearly average is $640. Fares are adjusted to current market conditions.

Methodology

Seasonal fares come from Priceline's own air booking-summary archive, analysed in-house and refreshed monthly. For each day of the year we take a representative round-trip fare, a blend of the 25th-percentile and average ticket price over the route's bookings, and smooth the series into a seasonal curve; the half-month low and high and the monthly figures quoted here are averages of that curve. Thin and international routes borrow their seasonal shape from the nearest busy routes, with the price level anchored to the route's own bookings.

Book about 6 weeks before departure for the best fares from New York City to Kahului, around $549. Booking in the final days before the flight costs about $630, $81 more. Booking six months ahead runs about $727. Fares are adjusted to current market conditions.

Methodology

Booking-window guidance comes from the same monthly in-house analysis of Priceline's own air booking-summary archive. We aggregate the route's bookings by how many days before departure they were made, from about 180 days out to the day of travel, smooth the curve, and highlight the stretch of lead times with the lowest average fare. Thin and international routes borrow the curve shape from the nearest busy routes, anchored to the route's own price level. It reflects current fares and is refreshed monthly.

No red-eye or overnight flights operate from New York City to Kahului. The route has no nonstop red-eyes, and no connecting itinerary with an overnight long leg is scheduled either.

Methodology

Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times and block times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes. A flight counts as a red-eye when it departs in the afternoon or evening (3 p.m. or later local time) or in the early hours before 4 a.m., and is in the air at some point between midnight and 4 a.m. local time at both its departure airport and its arrival airport. An evening flight that lands before midnight at its destination is never counted, nor is a morning departure or a daytime long-haul that reaches the next calendar date only because of time zones. Each red-eye is labelled with its timing (for example, overnight and landing the next morning, or late-night and landing after midnight). For connecting itineraries the same rule is applied to the longer leg, from one representative day's flight search.

No airline currently flies nonstop from New York City to Kahului, so travelers connect through a hub. The most common one-stop routings are on Alaska Airlines via Honolulu, United Airlines via San Francisco or Denver, and American Airlines via Dallas/Fort Worth or Phoenix. Alaska Airlines offers the shortest overall trip at about 12 hours 29 minutes via Honolulu, with up to 8 daily connections. United and American each operate multiple daily connecting flights through their western hubs, with Alaska also serving Seattle and San Diego as alternates.

Kahului Airport is the only commercial airport serving Kahului and central Maui. It is about 3 miles east of downtown Kahului and is the main gateway for flights to Maui.

From Midtown Manhattan to JFK, the AirTrain plus subway is the most popular public transit connection: take the E, J, or Z trains to Sutphin Blvd–Archer Av or the A train to Howard Beach and transfer to the AirTrain, which costs $8.75 on top of the subway fare. Taxis offer a flat rate of $70 to Manhattan, plus tolls and fees, and ride-share services like Uber are readily available, while driving and parking on-site is possible but the most expensive and least predictable option. The AirTrain–subway combination is the cheapest and often the most reliable in traffic, but a taxi or ride-share is the fastest door-to-door when roads are clear.

Methodology

Aircraft types come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). For U.S. routes the type is grounded in the tail number that actually operated the flight; elsewhere it comes from the airline's filed equipment code. Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated. Types describe typical scheduled equipment and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute swaps.

There is no nonstop service from New York City to Kahului; travelers connect through hubs like Honolulu, San Francisco, Denver, Dallas/Fort Worth, Phoenix, or Seattle. Alaska Airlines and American Airlines (both oneworld) and United Airlines (Star Alliance) are the carriers currently operating these one-stop routings, so oneworld and Star Alliance are the alliances serving this route. Note that Alaska Airlines, a major carrier here, belongs to oneworld, and no SkyTeam or unaffiliated major carrier appears on this route.
