Delta is attacking United’s fares to/from Hawaii. But these are BASIC ECONOMY fares. Delta Basic Economy fares:

• Do not allow for advance seat assignment – they are randomly assignment at checkin
• No changes or cancellations after the risk free 24 hour cancellation period
• Board last
• But unlike American or United, it does allow for normal size carry-on

We do not normally post Basic Economy fares without the regular fare price. However, Delta want a $400 plus buy up to regular economy. That gap isn’t worth it to buy up. We would recommend you get yourself a Delta co-brand credit card, so you don’t board last and at least have a shot at the overhead bins.

If you follow us on Instagram, you know that we go to Hawaii with some frequency. We love it!
