16 cities fly nonstop to Kona — a mid-size network where 13 routes run daily and 2 are a few days a week, so the day of the week you fly matters more than at a big hub. The busiest corridor is Honolulu–Kona at about 24.9× a day; the longest haul in is Denver, around 6h 58m nonstop.
From our own nightly fare sampling across nonstop routes into Kona — medians of the lowest fares seen, not predictions. The pattern: Sep runs cheapest (median low $125), Aug dearest ($159).
Sample sizes vary by month (Jul 14 · Aug 33 · Sep 80 · Oct 32 · Nov 17 · Mar 1); thin months are directional, not gospel.
In our route tracking since 6 July 2026: new or returning nonstops from Las Vegas, San Diego, Portland, Sacramento. Service from Lahania-Kapalua, Oakland, Kahului, Vancouver has left the schedule — some of that is seasonal and comes back.
Schedules shift with seasons; treat exits as "check again for your dates," not obituaries.
