Flights to Hawaii

Hi
I am in the US for 3 weeks in August/Sept and have booked 5 nights in Hawaii. I want to fly direct from Las Vegas but the only airline to do that is Hawaiian Air. When I tried to book on their website they do not accept UK credit cards or UK billing addresses. Would anyone know a workaround for this. I tried Kayak and Netflights but no luck on either for direct flights

Thanks

    I've used www.orbitz.com many times for my flights to USA. I've just checked for flights from Vegas to Hawaii and they do a few through LA but also do direct with Hawaiian Airlines. I've paid many times with my credit card and they issue e-tickets so it dosen't matter about mailing tickets etc.


    I don't know if they accept internal only bookings. I can't think why they wouldn't. I have always booked any internal flights along with the transatlantic section. They are based in New York. They accept UK credit cards, sometimes works out really good prices but check exchange rates. Hope this helps.

    Enjoy your trip, i'm off to San Francisco for three weeks in July :j

    thanks for all the replies. I have spoken to Hawaiian air on the number Strull supplied and they advised that I contact a Hawaiian company called Panda online as Hawaiian Air cannot process UK credit cards. I have emailed them to see if they can accomodate my flight request. I will also try Orbitz.com

    Thanks again
