That makes sense, IF you don't believe Hawaii is part of the U.S.

OR , alternatively , if you believe it's also possible to have a flight's departure point and destination BOTH be within the United States...

Which , happens all the time , it would seem...

Yeah, I jump in my car every morning and say, "Well, I'm bound for Texas today, to go to work..."

Tell me, if you board a flight to Vegas, do you tell your friends you're "off to America for the weekend"?

It was a clunky attempt at a double entendre, clumsily executed.

Sure , if I think it's not really their business where I'm going...

Anytime one boards an overwater flight , especially a TransPacific one , it's anyone's guess what the final arrival point may be , particularly after reaching the *bingo* fuel state...

It's not a stretch to describe the flight as US-bound in any case , even if an inflight emergency terminated it early , and the jet returned to Honolulu...

We just had a thread where these kinds of scenarios were in evidence :
