Best Time to Book

Seattle → Honolulu flights

Seattle–Honolulu fares show a $186 median over 12 days tracked; prices from $159–$204, so book once you see bottom-quartile pricing.

Fares hold near $186 — spread is wide for a 12-day sample

Key takeaways

Median fare sits at $186 across the sampled window
Bottom quartile ($176 or below) marks a genuinely good price worth booking
Top quartile reaches $204, matching the observed high — little room above that
28% spread between low and high is meaningful, but with only 12 snapshots, treat it as a rough range, not a trend
Low of $159 appeared at least once, so sub-$170 fares are possible, not guaranteed

The full picture

Over the 12 days we tracked, Seattle to Honolulu fares ranged from $159 to $204, with a median of $186. That's a 28% spread — wide enough to suggest real day-to-day volatility in cached fares, but with only a dozen samples, we can't confidently call this a seasonal pattern versus noise. Treat the range as a working guide rather than a firm forecast.

The p25/p75 split ($176 to $204) tells us half the observed fares clustered in that $28 band, with the bottom quartile at $176 or lower representing the better end of what's been available. If you see a fare at or below $176, that's consistent with the cheaper days in this sample. Fares above $204 haven't shown up in our window, so that figure looks like a practical ceiling for now — though that could shift as we collect more data.

We don't have enough snapshots here to isolate day-of-week booking patterns or carrier-specific behavior with confidence, so we won't speculate on which weekday to buy or whether one airline consistently undercuts another. The honest takeaway: this route's prices have moved within a fairly wide band recently, the median gives you a reasonable target, and anything near or below the bottom quartile is worth acting on. Given the thin sample size, treat this as a snapshot of recent conditions rather than a durable rule — check back as more data accumulates for a sharper read.
