If you're senior and get 15 to 16 days off, maybe it's commutable. But factor in a 5 to 6 hour flight to/from the west coast and a 2 to 3 hour timezone change depending on daylight savings and you're setting yourself up for burnout. Commuting from another island is definitely more reasonable than the mainland. Many more interisland flights between us, Hawaiian, and Trans Air.
