There are a couple crash pads by HA pilots close to the airport but not sure you’d want to do that 24/7 during training. Maybe something to figure out if you are going to commute. Good luck all and congratulations.
and beware of scams on CL I’ve heard.
Airbnb may be a monthly option though the state government just made anything less than 6 months illegal unless a resort area.

Do you have a contact info?
Still looking where to spend first few days. Hotels are damn expansive.

I jumped on an AirBnB outside of the city, closer to HQ the second I had a class date. Trust me when I say that if you stay downtown, the traffic in the mornings sucks and you'll wish you booked elsewhere.

I’ve got a beautiful home in Hawaii Kai on Mariners Ridge rented out on a room by room basis, 6 month minimum. Have 2 openings coming up. Plan is all HAL pilots. Has views, a private pool, and will be getting a renovated kitchen and new paint/flooring very soon. Already have a couple people interested. Should be around $1,200/month. PM me for details.

Wait, does Hawaiian not provide a hotel during training?? Even cheap a** regionals provide that. Thinking about applying and currently on the mainland. Would be next to impossible to get housing without going out there first and scoping it out, but there’s a 0% chance of getting enough time off to do so.

HAL does not provide a hotel during training because:
1. Everyone is based is HNL.
2. They haven’t had to since guys are showing up for classes.
You do get a hotel if you go for sim training at other locations besides HNL. It wouldn’t surprise me if they did start offering a hotel at HNL, but who knows when/if that will be. Don’t work here if you don’t plan on finding permanent housing. There aren’t too many crashpad type options, and reserve is always short-call.

If I worked for Hawaiian I would certainly want to move to HNL but it would take me a while of actually being on the island to find a place. I have a wife and kids and won't get a place where I haven't personally been to, to scout out the area. That's not really possible while I'm working for a regional on the mainland. If they offered a hotel during training I could use my free time to find a permanent location for my family.
