Hawaiian Airlines offering fares from select California cities for $223

If you live in a place like Sapporo, you're pretty much fed up with months of endless snow forcing you to cave into your office.  Fortunately, it's now the prime time to hit up paradise since it's the low season for the Aloha State.  Hawaiian Airlines is offering fares from San Jose or Oakland to Kahalui, Maui for as little as $223 with an affiliate discount code.  Prices haven't been this low in years, and it looks like availability is sporadic yet reasonable.

To book, go to Hawaiian Air's affiliate page and enter code AQUA to log in.  The 5% discount will be applied at checkout.  Advertised promo is good for flights through March 20th and must be booked by February 21st, but Hawaiian Air frequently extends booking deadlines beyond the promotional period.  Here is the list of other mainland cities included in the sale:

Although Hawaiian Air partners with Delta, United, and American Airlines, none of the legacy carriers credit miles for flights to/fro the mainland U.S.  It's also unclear whether or not you can accrue Hawaiian Miles with the affiliate discount applied, so if mileage earnings is important to you, burn that $9.
