12 hour flight? It's 11 hours to Hawaii from JFK/EWR. Polynesia is more like 16.
I would't recommend Mexico at all right now. I thought Cabo was a dump when I was there about 7 years ago.
Honestly, Hawaii is your best bet. There's a shitload of stuff to do, everyone speaks English, you don't have to worry about having your head cut off, and you can use your cellphone to upload pics of your vacation while you're on it. The food is great, the people are great, and the scenery, both above and below sea level, is spectacular. I would unwind on Kauai for the first few days then head to Maui for some additional activities.
