Virgin America just announced two new direct flights to Hawaii from LAX and you can grab a seat to the island for quite a steal. The airline is having a “Hot Ticket to Hawaii” fare sale with tickets starting at $169 each way.

For the best fares, you must stay within the sale dates of May 5 – October 5 for Honolulu and August 15 – October 5 for Maui.

I ran a sample search for the dates of August 24 – 28, 2016 to Honolulu and came up with a fare of $368.

This is nearly $350 cheaper than the next cheapest direct flight I could find on Delta.

This is a fantastic deal in two ways. Virgin America is a great airline with a cool vibe and lots of tech friendly features.  It would certainly be a fun way to get to Hawaii in style. Also, other airlines might match the prices.

One thing is for certain, these cheap seats will go fast – so start that summer vacation planning now.
