Am I likely to see cheaper? Have you seen cheaper in the past? Since I started looking in July, this is the cheapest so far. Ussually, the "sales" are about $900 return.
Would you book this, or hold out?
EDIT:
I just checked Expedia, and Alaska Air can do Wednesday the 7th to the 14th at $647 ... so WJ's deal isnt that hot.
What price should I hold out for? I dont mind playing the waiting game.
Is Alaska Air ok to fly? I've heard to stay away from United within the US; true?

Draug, there are occasionally some pretty good seat sales to hawaii from calgary via phoenix on US AIR. I like the flight times with them as most of the time you aren't on a red eye.....and they are a star alliance partner if you collect points.
The prices vary pretty good, but if you keep an eye on them, you can usually snag a decent price. They are a decent no frills airline, just gives you another option. A lot of people dont even realize that US AIR flies out of Calgary
I just checked april 6-14th....prices out at $630 taxes in....not to bad
