Initially, Johnson recommended a more efficient flight plan that had a lower altitude for the first 6 hours. Long & Long (1999, pp.68, 72) shows that the flight to Honolulu would overtake a Pan Am flight that left earlier. To avoid problems, Earhart would fly at 8,000 feet while the slower Pan Am flight would stay below 6,000 feet. Johnson was asked to adapt the plan for 8,000 feet. The given schedule is for the 8,000-foot altitude, but Earhart may have used the slightly more efficient first schedule or some other schedule. Keep collections to yourself or inspire other shoppers!
