well I was gonna recommend my Alaska MC ....but I figured you would then just go areoplan or something else :roll:
You can use my annual spare companion fare deal I have since I never seem to use it..... could save you tons, for 110 bux the second person flies....also the best ws gear shipping deal.....
Using the points accumulated it works best to book separate flights for Maui to and from....one way uses way more points than the other... :idea:

Alaska Airlines Mastercard for over 10 years.
We use it for everything possible and now Costco!
Originally, we signed on because they flew to LaPaz for LaVentana but now only Cabo which is still okay.
Marion manages to fly to Cabo for 17,500 points.
Next week off to Florida on mileage points. Free is good ( well, sort of free ).
A small annoyance is that they haven't set up an online form to tell them you will be travelling outside Canada. One still has to phone each time.

That's called a "good problem to have".

Now the fight over who will take the cheap companion fare.....significant other or kite buddies, hmm. :lol:

I don't feel responsible, you asked the question....I recall commenting only on volume, that 84 should work well but also said your money board should be around 92 and it is easier to learn in waves with more volume. Will see how it goes I guess 8)
