Lets see, you want to non-rev to HNL around the Memorial Day holiday, on the week-end and there's only one flight a day; and your question is --- what do I think?
Well, I think you are destined to sleep in the airport.
Of course there's always the chance (be it ever so slight) that someone will get lost in the terminal, miss a connection or get caught on the wrong side of security when they run out of bins , so if you're feeling extremely lucky you might attempt it (like Tim suggested) from out here on the west coast. (LA has more carriers, more flights)One caveat, if you attempt this, I'd stongly advice you to at least buy a refundable/exchangable ticket for the trip back. Trust me, HNL got it's reputation as a non-rev black hole the old fashion way --- it earned it.
