What do you mean "why do you care"?? It's not just about YOU. Hawaii is one of THE go to spots for employees to try to take their families on vacation. Taking the stretch guppy out there means that on almost every flight we will be leaving our fellow employees and their families in the lurch. Not to mention, by augmenting the flight, you have now taken away the Jumpseat as an option for our commuters and pass traveling pilots as well as pilots from other airlines who graciously take us around the world on their airplanes. For a lot of other employee groups, the travel benefits are THE reason they work for the airlines. And Hawaii is THE place they want to use those benefits. And now that is being ruined by the bean counters who run this show.
