Cheap travel options including cheap airplane tickets, cheap vacation packages and discount travel packages to Hawaii are more plentiful than ever since Hawaiian Airlines expanded its flight schedule to the mainland last June.

The following are Budget Travel suggestions on to get the most out of an Oahu vacation:

• Reserve and purchase your tickets online prior to departing if you want to see Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial. Otherwise you may find out that there are no tickets available the days you wish to visit.

• Allot time to travel outside of the main tourist zones of Waikiki Beach and Honolulu. Hawaii’s main form of public transportation is bus with a variety of fares for as low as $2.50 one way with free transfers.

• Consider spending a day snorkeling at Hanauma Bay which is protected nature preserve on Oahu’s southeast coast where snorkel gear is available to rent.

• Take a drive up the windward coast on Kalanianaole Highway, where you can see the “KoKo Head” a dormant yet very impressive volcano on one side and dramatic cliffs on the other. Just down ...
... the road in Kailua is Lanikai Beach, generally believed to be Hawaii’s number one beach. Since this beach is a little off the beaten path it is not jammed with tourists.

• Go to Oahu’s North Shore and explore the Polynesian Cultural Center which has the feeling of Disney’s EPCOT. Samoa, Tahiti, Tonga, Fiji, Hawaii, and several other islands showcase their cultural dances, food, music and other traditions.

• If you will be in the Waikiki Beach area, eat dinner at Duke’s Waikiki and enjoy a buffet full of Hawaiian favorites, including fresh poke, kalua pork, and huli huli chicken.

• If you are in the North Shore, you should stop by Oahu’s legendary shaved ice spot, Matsumoto Shave Ice, in the historic town of Haleiwa. The shop offers a wide selection of flavors including tangerine, green tea, and creamsicle.

• While you are in Hawaii pick up a beautiful and fragrant flower lei and toss it into the ocean on your last day.
