I sat in the jumpseat of a United 767 coming back from Kona to SFO. It wasn't the most exciting flight in the world, but it didn't seem to bad. HF radio calls every 30 minutes or so at fixes and a little bit of chatter on the local VHF freq about smooth rides.

Actually sounds pretty good to me. I was hoping to get a resume in to Hawiian when they opened the window, but I guess I missed it. Maybe next time.
