Using www.kayak.com, it looks like JAL & ANA will get you there with 1 or 2 stops along the way.

There are non-stop budget airlines flights from HK to Okinawa and that might work out cheaper.

Okinawa has unique culture mixed Asian countries and of course japan. Syuri-castle is original ancient castle and many castle ruins in all over the island. many beaches everywhere, Okinawan foods, Okinawan music live house and Big Aquarium as Churaumi-suizokukan in northern area. If you are interested in WW2, there is some spots as war museums, cemetery parks, and tombs.

it takes about 2 hours by car from airport or Naha city, Naha city is very close to southern part. if you don't rent a car, there is some bus service but it is such a long journey to visit to north as Aqualium or small okinawan traditional villages.
