If you book this as a single trip, connecting in SFO or SJC, you will be offered only a specific set of connecting flight options. If you want to actual spend some time to break up the flight, book it as a multi-city flight, e.g., origin->SJC; SJC->Hawaii; Hawaii->origin.Thanks Egret1986, you have really help us in planning a vacation to Hawaii. We are applying for an Alaska Airline credit card.
Looking at a one day staying in San Francisco or San Jose to break up the long flight.
The multi-city itinerary might cost more for the primary ticket, but the companion fare will be the same. There might also be some differences in airport fees.
