The appetizer was the next best part: simple but good roasted chicken with tabouleh salad, tzatziki sauce, and fresh cilantro. The appetizer was accompanied by Hawaiian sweet bread (which is really Portuguese sweet bread). Just about the best part of the meal were the pre-dinner Mauna Loa macadamia nuts, served with your drink of choice–I chose pineapple juice. I was surprised that there was no choice at all of red or white wine, and not even a vintage was mentioned. Here's the menu, with two choices each for appetizer and main course: Our flight departed at 3pm, so we were served an early dinner. Hawaiian Airlines First Class Menu and Dining Here's our Hawaiian Airlines A330 First Class YouTube Video Review: Note to Hawaiian: your premium cabin passengers want to be able to use an IFE gate to gate. While I don't always use the IFE, my husband does, and he (and other passengers who were in the middle of watching movies) were annoyed that the screens were picked up 45 minutes before the flight was over. Note that there is no built-in IFE instead, the flight crew hands out IFE screens, which are placed into holders in front of the tray table.

In front of each seat is a small ottoman, which forms part of the flat bed–more on this later.ĭuring the flight you could put a small bag under the ottoman, but there's no stowage during take-off and landing. I much prefer having the power outlet shoulder height or at least within easier sight and reach. I disliked the fact that the power outlets were by the floor (lower calf level) on the divider between the seats. Instead of a button, the seat control is a dial. There was a small blue pillow and a thin blanket at each seat.

The seats are brown, in a white shell with blue accent. Hawaiian First Class seats on the A330-200 are only 20 inches wide, compared to 21 in Delta One on the A330-200. The lavatory is about the same size as a normal lavatory–small–but the fresh orchids and coconut liquid soap were nice touches. We were fortunate enough to have a friendly and helpful flight crew: Presumably Hawaiian wanted to keep all seats paired both to squeeze in more passengers and because as a leisure market, most people are traveling to Hawaii with a companion. Needless to say, it's very tight to have 6 seats across for a business class product on this aircraft. Hawaiian's First Class cabin on the A330-200 has 18 seats in a 2-2-2 configuration across 3 rows. This flight was our Maui OGG to Seattle SEA flight, with a 5 hours 35 minutes flight time. However, this has since been pushed back to 2023, amid a degree of uncertainty.This Hawaiian Airlines A330 First Class Review includes a video and photos of the seat, food and drink, IFE and lavatory. It replaced these with an order for 10 Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft, which were initially set to begin arriving at the carrier later this year. However, the airline canceled its order for six A330-800s in March 2018. In terms of the future of Hawaiian's long-haul fleet, it had looked as if the new A330neo would be the aircraft that would modernize this aspect of its operations. There are also 68 Economy Comfort seats, offering passengers 36 inches of legroom compared to the 31 available in the 192 standard economy seats. Each aircraft has 18 of these in the front of the cabin, laid out in a six-abreast (2-2-2) configuration.
