    I used miles to book this flight. Unfortunately, I could not check in online.

    I returned to Narita Airport after a relaxing couple of hours at Sora No Yu onsen. Arriving at the check in counters, I saw a very long queue for check in. It looked as if no one could check in online. Thankfully, the Business Class counter did not have much of a queue and I got processed relatively quickly. As it turned out, I had to fill in a form by hand. If this was the reason why online check in was not allowed, then it is an easy fix which would avoid a lot of annoyance.

    The flight itself was fine. I appreciated the speed at which Hawaiian served the main meal; I was fast asleep a little over an hour after takeoff! They also served a small breakfast 90 minutes before arrival which I really appreciated. The hard product, though, is far from industry leading. I hope to have an opportunity to try their new B787 Business Class when they join the OneWorld alliance.    Read more
