You can’t replace flying to Hawaii with driving there. Further, short flights which may be directly comparable are vastly more dangerous per mile making the overall average meaningless.
Thus it turns out if your going on a relatively short trip ~300km or less taking a bus at ~0.04 deaths per billion passenger km is safer.
