Hawaiian Airlines will connect Honolulu to Boston with a non-stop route, starting in April, and claims it’s the longest non-stop in U.S. airline history.
The route will fly with an A330, scheduled to take 11 hours and 40 minutes westbound, and 10 hours 15 minutes flying east to Boston. The 5,095-mile flight will take the record from the current champ, Hawaiian’s non-stop to New York JFK. Hawaiian will now have 76 domestic destinations and two on the East Coast.
The airline and the Boston airport operator are pushing the route as a good way to escape Boston’s winter (or, given the April start, a way to recover.
