Yes, You Can Get Both Personal Hawaiian Cards and Earn 140,000 Miles

You Can Get Both Personal Hawaiian Cards

Hawaiian Airlines issues two different personal credit cards. One is from Barclays and the other from Bank of Hawaii. Both cards currently have a 70,000 miles bonus, with the terms of each offer being a bit different. But in case you didn’t know, you can get both cards and both welcome bonuses. You can also transfer these miles to Alaska Airlines. Check out the details below.

Welcome Bonuses

Here are the two offers:

• Hawaiian Airlines Bank of Hawaii World Elite Mastercard:
  • Earn 70,000 Bonus HawaiianMiles after making your first purchase within the first 90 days.
  • Annual Fee: $99
  • LINK TO OFFER
• Barclays Hawaiian Airlines World Elite Mastercard:
  • Earn 70,000 bonus HawaiianMiles after spending $2,000 on purchases within the first 90 days.
  • Annual Fee: $99
  • LINK TO OFFER

As you can see, the only difference is the spending requirement. The Bank of Hawaii card only requires one purchase to earn 70,000 miles, while the Barclays card requires $2,000 in spending.

Get Both Hawaiian Cards

If you’re looking to get just one of these cards, then the Hawaiian Airlines Bank of Hawaii World Elite Mastercard is the clear choice as it doesn’t have a spending requirement.

But what if you want to get both bonuses for a total of 140,000 miles? You can do that too. You do not need to be a resident of Hawaii to get the Hawaiian Airlines Bank of Hawaii World Elite Mastercard.

While the system will automatically flag these as the same product, you can get the second application through by calling in. I would do the Bank of Hawaii card first, since that is the better bonus. After that apply for the Barclays card and you will need to call (866) 408-4064.

Phone reps seem to already know that this is a common issue. You will have to verify some of the information you provided in the application, possibly move some credit, and they will push it through manually.

Guru’s Wrap-up

Hawaiian Airlines cards are expected to be discontinued as the HawaiianMiles program merges with Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan. It’s not clear when that will happen, but if you value Alaska Airlines miles, you should go for these cards sooner than later.
