The last leg of your journey will take place on a boat, and you might get seasick if you’re prone to motion sickness. You’ll also have plenty of time to relax and catch up with friends or family who may have traveled with you (if they’re not already in Hawaii).

Air travel is often more expensive than other modes of transportation. You will have to pay for your ticket and related fees, such as baggage or seat selection charges.
You may also have to pay for food and drinks during the flight and any souvenirs you buy at the airport before or after your flight. If you’re planning on taking an overnight flight from NYC’s LaGuardia Airport (LGA) into Honolulu on Hawaiian Airlines’ new service from March 2019, expect to spend around $500 per person overnight—and that’s just one way! There are other ways to get there, too: by bus from LGA ($100), car rental ($250-$300), cruise ship ($200+), or private jet chartering services like JetSmarter, which offer fares starting around $4k+ per week depending on destination.
The ocean has its challenges, too!
The ocean is enormous, and it can be hard to get your bearings. There’s a lot of water out there—and not just in terms of surface area. There are also currents and tidal movements, which challenge those who travel by boat.
The ocean also has its dangers: sharks, jellyfish stings, and rough weather conditions can all play havoc on your trip through one of the wildest places on earth. But if you’re willing to put up with these perils (or adapt your plans accordingly), there’s a treasure waiting for you below!
Cruise ships are a popular way to travel the ocean.
Cruise ships are a popular way to travel the ocean. They’re convenient, safe, and comfortable. But what about the time it takes?
The average cruise ship travels at about 25 knots (30 mph), which means it takes 10 hours or so for passengers to get from one place to another on an ocean voyage.
