Hi Vicki, I see you're still trying to avoid the crowds. I've got to go along with VenusFan, most school holidays (even in Hawaii) are one day, so that shouldn't be a factor in choosing a travel date. However assuming you want to avoid the crowds at the beach, avoid Easter/Spring Break, the last week of April/first week of May (Japan's Golden Week), the summer and the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. Drop a line to Randy (Chicago correspondent), he jets over there all the time and will have a better idea on good travel times.

and Vicki before you ask

Hawaii doesn't observe daylight savings time.
