I have a flight coming up, never flown out of Hawaii with hand guns. Beside the obvious requirements such as locked case , etc. Do you have to show proof of registration or any kind of paper work? Thanks guys!

Make sure all your official IDs aren't going to expire during the trip, especially if you get delayed.  Crazy times can cause havoc at airports.

Just do research on gun laws at your destination as well as any places you might be routed through.  For example, if you are  changing planes in New Jersey and miss your flight for any reason and have to stay the night, you need to know how to avoid a felony charge for possession of an unregistered firearm.

A little due diligence will take all the stress out of traveling with firearms.

Flying with firearms  101
Bring copy of TSA info and YOUR airlines Baggage info regarding firearms transport  so you can show the desk jockey that doesn't know jack if/when you are questioned.
Be aware of YOUR airlines ammo restrictions (usually weight)  and number of firearms allowed.

Flying to Illinois


Transport your Firearm Legally in Illinois – Illinois State Police

How do I transport a firearm through an Illinois community with an ordinance that prohibits firearms or handguns?

Illinois’ Unlawful Use of Weapons law does not preempt local ordinances from banning firearms.
Persons carrying or transporting firearms through such communities could be subject to local firearm
ordinances. Federal law does attempt to provide limited protection in these circumstances, but when
transporting firearms in unfamiliar communities, it is a good idea to check with authorities on local law.


Quote
If a non-resident is coming to Illinois to hunt and would like to bring their firearm, how do they legally transport it? 

Non-residents must comply with the gun case law as described above. Additionally, the firearm must not be
immediately accessible or must be broken down in a non-functioning state.


Quote
Can I keep a firearm in my hotel room when I travel?

Yes, assuming no local ordinance applies. The critical question is how the firearm was carried into the room
and transported in a vehicle. Those actions must be done lawfully.

Do you have to show proof or registration at the airport when leaving Hawaii?

No.  The only additional "paperwork" you need at the airport for guns will be provided by the airline at check-in: a firearm declaration form.

Each airline uses their own.  This is a sample of United's form:
