So. I think that overtime duty will be difficult. Am I right.?

And then is it common to start and end at Hilo International Airport or Kahului Airport, or should the start and end airports always be HNL?

I wonder if there are some pilots who have a domicile other island, except HNL?
it’s pretty easy to credit 90 hours a month flying interisland. Some pilots consistently credit over 100, but have zero lives other than work. We have trip rig and a 60% duty rig. There are Hilo and Kahului overnights, but the pairings end in HNL. HNL is Hawaiians only base if you don’t include the cargo operation. A lot of 321 schedules have deadheads to and from Kahului and a lot of pilots who live in Maui bid the 321 and are practically home based.
