All I'm saying, that timeline is not happening. Do a search of SWA and Hawaii, you will see that they have been silent and not telling the press anything. Don't you think if they were close they would be getting that out in the media?

Also, getting ETOPS is not just a flt ops thing, the Mx side is a big part of it and your mechanics union doesn't seem like they are in a very cooperative mode right now.

....and I don't work for Alaska, lol
I actually want SWA to get into the Hawaii market, then fares will come down
It’s just a matter of time.
