First class Aloha. Mission impossible?

I’m looking to book two first class award seats from (anywhere in the US) to LIH in March. Totally flexible on dates and want to stay 7-10 nights. Stopover in LAX would be ideal. My hub is BOS. I know first class to HI is tough. Lucky got me seats a few years back out of IAD on United – lie flat – 4 seats during school break. Amazing. I tried finding seats via Korean Air and no luck. In fact, no luck w any partner booking only native miles. I have pts in Chase Preferred, Amex MR and SPG.

Is this mission impossible?

Keep checking but it might be a good idea to buy F tickets. You can use Google Flights to track pricing.

Thanks David. These two links connect to the same post. Did you mean to link to a second post? I will check F tickets on Google Flights.

How about transferring MR pts to Virgin Atlantic on 30% promotion and using those to book Hawaiian or Delta? I have to call VA to check those avails right?

Yeah, i meant to link to a second post – I edited my comment with the correct link.

Virgin Atlantic is a good option if you can find saver awards on Delta. I believe they will show up on VS’s site if they are available.
