Alaska Airlines is expanding its service to the Hawaiian Islands, with new nonstop flights between San Diego and Kona, on Hawaii Island, starting today.
   
Alaska is offering an introductory fare of $199 one way for tickets purchased by March 9 for travel on Mondays and Thursdays between April 15 and June 6, 2015.*

While flying to Kona, customers can enjoy Alaska Beyond™, a new flight experience where they can watch free entertainment on their own device, enjoy locally-sourced food and beverages, relax in custom, power-equipped leather seats, and experience Alaska's award-winning service.

Alaska also flies to Honolulu, Kahului (Maui), and Lihue (Kauai). "At our peak this summer, Alaska will offer 27 flights a week to Hawaii from San Diego. No other airline offers more service to Hawaii from San Diego, than Alaska."
