Meet her in Honilulu and have a bitching "pre honey moon".

When she gets off the international flight she can get her baggage and walk out to the street. Have her ask the guard there where she can get on the "Wiki Wwiki" bus which will take her to the domestic flight for free.

One comes by every 20 minutes or so.

It can be a long walk depending on which domestic airlines she will be flying.

Tell her NOT to walk as Hawaiian domestic is all the way down to the other end of the terminal.

Have her get the Wiki Wiki bus.

Yeah, I was checking out Hawaiian air a few days ago. Rates are really good compared to PAL. They have that MNL to HNL to LAX. That sounds like an excellent excuse for a pit stop and kind of cool POE.... but all this Visa business is a bit draining on the bank account. So, a few more days in Hawaii for us is probably not possible.

Regarding HNL POE, if she has lots of bags it could be a little PITA. She has to claim them after immigration check in and then get from international to domestic terminals. As someone said, the Wiki Wiki bus runs pretty ferquently and is free. And sometimes the drivers actually get out their seats to help.. I have actually walked from terminals when I didn't have bags. Not bad, just a bit of hassle getting from terminals if you have bags.

To OP

I flew hawaiian airlines from manila to phoenix. I had 1 big luggage and 2 balikbayan boxes. The transfer of luggages from international to domestic is really near. They are both located in one area. POE interview was quite fast. No problem at all.

Though she has to transfer to another building for her phoenix flight. Make sure that her hand carry luggage has rollers.

My wife's POE was in Honolulu. (We actually live here.)

She said it was a very pleasant experience. She actually got a Filipino officer.

About 25% of Hawaii's population reported themselves at least part Filipino!

I suggest that you "beg, borrow, or steal" the funds to have a little vacation in Hawaii.

YEP! International is about 1/4 mile away from domestic.

If you do stay awhile. Get out to a outer island as Oahu is a Zoo. Honolulu is just another big city with traffic, hookers and crime.

Try Molokai the friendly isle . 6000 peeps. Mostly Hawaiians. 30 % filipinos naman. No traffic lights. Sorry No woppers or big macs tho.

Fresh filipino gulay, bangus and tilapia! Alimango also. ALL the fresh fruits and foods of PI.
