That's great.

What if you're furloughed or not currently employed by a 121 carrier?

A free ticket to Hawaii and a hotel room should be just a cost of doing business. Alternatively, they could conduct the interviews on the mainland.

I really don't mean to impugn Hawaiian - I'd love to work there. I probably won't get ever get called anyhow since I don't have any strong ties to the islands other than having flown there many times. Unfortunately, due to circumstances even if I was called I couldn't afford to go interview, and that shouldn't be the determining factor in whether a company hires an individual or not.
