Flying Vancouver to Honolulu covers about 2,710 miles, linking Vancouver International Airport (YVR) with Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL); a nonstop takes roughly 5h55, with winds moving it either way. The nonstop award space in the data is split between Air Canada and WestJet. The Boeing 737-8 MAX appears on some of those nonstop award segments. Nonstops make up only about 3% of the award options in the data; the rest connect.
Vancouver–Honolulu rewards discipline: redeem only when points beat what the ticket costs in cash. Saving points means connecting: the economy floor connects once, and an economy nonstop on either carrier costs more. The cheapest economy seat adds about $68 in taxes and fees, in line with the route's typical economy taxes. If the cash price is modest, buying the ticket is often the better trade. Bank points transfer to Delta SkyMiles; check for a transfer bonus, then confirm the seat before moving them.
Delta SkyMiles takes economy at 10,300 points. Air Canada Aeroplan is cheapest in business class at 28,826 points on an Air Canada nonstop. It also lists first class from 35,000 points on a connecting itinerary, often first on one leg only, so confirm the cabin on each flight. For a cross-check, Alaska Atmos Rewards, American AAdvantage, and Qantas Frequent Flyer price the route too.
Nonstop award seats on Vancouver–Honolulu come from two carriers: Air Canada and WestJet. Air Canada's Star Alliance membership opens its seats to partner programs across the alliance, not just Air Canada Aeroplan. If you're open to a stop, the better-priced connecting awards in the data run through Seattle.
The data shows no same-metro alternate airports on either end of Vancouver–Honolulu, so date flexibility is the main lever. For another option from Vancouver, Cancun prices from 11,500 points at last check. For a longer redemption from Vancouver, Calgary and Hong Kong are tracked too.
