Pros: One crew member went above and beyond and took my lei to keep it cool so it wouldn't ruin through out the flight.
Cons: On our trip to Hawaii, our plane was delayed 3 times and ultimately canceled. We had to go with another airline to get to Hawaii the same day. On the way back, our trip was delayed again an hour.

7.6
Pros: The only reason I gave a “good” rating for this flight is because the crew & staff were courteous and patient, given the chaos.
Cons: A lot happened. First system was down in SJC so it delayed boarding. Also passengers without seat assigned (and for some reason there were a lot of us) had to wait until all other passengers boarded before seats were assigned. Then in HNL we had to wait over 30 minutes before baggage came out.
