HAL50: HNL-JFK
HAL51: JFK-HNL
The flights will be using their A330-243s. This service will be Hawaiian's first mainland destination east of PHX.
Just some history, Hawaiian was originally going to announce service to JFK in September 2001. However, the 9/11 terrorist attacks derailed those plans.
I'm not sure how long this link will work, but it will be updated once a press release comes out.
Hawaiian Air's New York Special Offer
More details on Hawaiian Air's Press Release.
Presently, the only time a Hawaiian Air 767 is spotted in New York, is for team charters for the NFL's Oakland Raiders or Seattle Seahawks. Continental (United) offers daily, non-stop service between HNL and EWR. The last airline to fly non-stop between HNL and JFK was Pan American in 1989. Though, according to some reports, American Trans Air had a JFK-HNL flight operated with an L1011-500 in the late 90s.

ATA was definitely the last carrier to operate the route before Hawaiian. Here's a couple of articles from the Star-Bulletin archives, one from October 2000 about Pleasant Hawaiian offering package deals on the flight, and another from August 2001 about a nearly two day delay on one of the flights:
