Alaska Airlines from Honolulu to MidAmerica St. Louis Airport

Hold onto your hula skirts, travel enthusiasts! If you're thinking of trading in the sun-soaked beaches of Honolulu for the spectacular views of the Mississippi river, and more specifically, making that epic journey on an Alaska flight to MidAmerica St Louis Airport, then this post is just for you! Expect a healthy dose of one-way ticket enthusiasm, a sprinkling of baggage allowance banter and even some flight duration fun facts. So, buckle up and prepare for a jovial journey through the wonder-filled world of trans-Pacific travel!

First things first, let's talk about the elephant (or rather, the aeroplane) in the room - the flights. Now, unless you've got a pair of highly dysfunctional wings or a private jet named Daisy, chances are, you'll be hopping onto one of Alaska's majestic metal birds. Good news travel lovers, Alaska offers direct flights from Honolulu to MidAmerica St. Louis. That means, no layover in a random airport where the only source of entertainment is counting the tiles on the terminal floor. And if you're lucky, you might snag one of Alaska's infamous cheap flights. Pretty neat, isn’t it?

On to the next point, let’s chat about baggage allowance. Now, unless you plan on smuggling a life-size statue of Duke Kahanamoku or intend to take the entirety of Waikiki Beach in a suitcase, the regular check-in baggage allowance should suffice. Alaska allows you one carry-on bag and one personal item free of cost. Additional or overweight bags may have charges, so pack wisely. And don't forget the suntan lotion!

Now, for the fun part - flight duration. Given that Honolulu and St Louis are roughly 4,307 miles apart (or 18,247,464 whale lengths for those keeping track at home), you might expect to be cocooned in your airplane seat for an eternity. But fear not, the non-stop flight duration is just about 7 hours and 45 minutes. Enough time to watch ‘The Avengers’ twice, invent a new language, or even have a deep philosophical conversation with the in-flight crew about the meaning of airplane food!

Wait up, before we proceed, did you know this funny little fact about Alaska? It's the only state in the US that can be typed on a single row of a QWERTY keyboard. Seriously, try it! Bet that put a smile on your face. Now, back to our regularly scheduled programming.

If you fly frequently and haven't already signed up for frequent flyer program, then what on earth are you waiting for? Alaska's Mileage Plan lets you earn miles every time you fly and the earned miles can redeem flights, hotel stays, and more. The more you fly, the closer you get to achieving MVP, MVP Gold, and MVP Gold 75K status - no, that’s not a new line of Marvel superheroes, but they’ll definitely make you feel super!

The in-flight services offered by Alaska is no laughing matter either. Well, actually, it quite is. With Wifi, duty-free shopping, and a wide selection of entertainment options – even a 1960’s sitcom about flight control tower workers – there’s no shortage of giggles on-board.

So, if you're mounting an expedition from Honolulu to St Louis, don't forget to check Alaska’s flight schedule. They offer flexible timings to suit every type of traveler; night owls, early birds or those who like to fly at the exact minute the sun is at its zenith - not judging!

In closing, remember, planning is key. Booking at the right time can make a huge difference to your airfare. So get started, and who knows, by the time you touch down in St.Louis, you might just be the newest member of the ‘I survived a flight across the Pacific and all I got was this blog post’ club. Happy flying!
