On the Ground in Paradise!
Finally!! We are on the ground in Honolulu. It will be a few minutes before we get to the gate, but we are on the ground, safe and sound!!
Here are some photos of approach and landing at Honolulu…

Touchdown!
Turning off the runway with Diamond Head in the distance
Fluffy White Clouds and Blue Waters
After nearly 4½ hours of nothing but clouds and ocean, we must be getting close to Honolulu.
View from 39,500 feet...
We have been flying at 39,500 feet (±300 feet) at an average speed of about 530mph, but just recently 1:45pm PDT or 10:45am HST), we started to drop altitude, so I assume we are approaching O’ahu.
(The flight attendant just announced we should be on the ground in about 30 minutes…)
All Aboard & Ready to Fly…
We are seated, the plane is boarding (priority boarding is So Nice!!). Should be heading away in 20 minutes or less…
