nothing like Virgin.
Virgin is a start up that has to a) get a union, and b) build a history of contracts.
Hawaiian is the oldest airline in the US (11th in the world), one which at one time had industry leading DC9 rates, and one which has had to file BK 3 times over the 8+ decades it's been in business (2 of which were recently) and set our pattern bargaining back quite a bit.. we simply have to climb BACK OUT of our hole and join our peers at the other Legacies and getting back what WE GAVE UP.
