• Hawaiian Airlines has just announced the longest regularly scheduled domestic flight route in US history.
• The flight between Boston and Honolulu is a 5,095-mile journey and will take at least 10 hours.
• The route will launch in April 2019 with five flights per week.
• A first class, round-trip ticket from Honolulu to Boston in April currently starts at about $4,300, while the cheapest economy ticket is $616.

New Englanders can now fly directly from Boston to sunny Hawaii in a 10-hour flight that will set a new record, Hawaiian Airlines recently announced.

“At 5,095 miles, Hawaiian’s BOS-HNL route becomes the longest regularly scheduled domestic route in US history,” the airline said in a press release.

The flight is expected to take about 10 hours from Hawaii to Boston and up to 11 hours 50 minutes when flying west. For comparison, a flight from Boston to London takes less than seven hours.

“There is nowhere on Earth like Hawai’i, and we are bringing our islands closer than ever to Boston with nonstop service,” Hawaiian Airlines president and CEO Peter Ingram said in the press release. “…We look forward to sharing our warm hospitality with our New England guests whose vacation starts the minute they check in and step onto our plane.”

The route will start in April 2019 with five flights per week.

Here’s what New Englanders can expect from the flight and its swanky first-class cabin.
