Time travel means like years or monthes so I don't think you should consider that time travel but good question though!

No, when you travel to the mainland to Hawaii, you're crossing time zones. A time zone standardizes the time according to local sunrises and sunsets. If you go from New York to Honolulu, you'll go from Eastern Standard Time (after Daylight savings ends) to Hawaii Standard Time. Since there is a five hour difference, if it's 5:00 in New York, it's 12:00 in Honolulu.
The only way to lose a day going to Hawaii is to cross the International Dateline, this two time zones behind Hawaii. You would have to come from Asia or the Western Pacific to cross the Dateline

Actually going "West" from the western US or Canada and you can only go "back" in time 2 to 4 hours, afterwards, you go "forward" in time. The new "Day" begins over the pacific. So if you travel too far over the "dateline" it's tomorrow already.
The only consolation is travelling back "east" over the dateline, where you have the distinction of in fact travelling "Back" in time. So for instance, it's already Christmas Evening Day (Dec 24), (about 7:00AM) in New Zealand as I'm writing this, Even though it's only noon where I am.

All I know for sure is that you will wake up about 4:00 o'clock your first morning there, due to the time change. Nope, it's not time travel.
