It was recently mentioned to me that Alaska was talking to United about possible gate swaps in HNL for some gates in GUM.
Just noticed a change on the Hawaiian Airlines website, that you can now select Guam as a “North America” destination when booking a flight. No flights show up of course but I’m wondering if this is a hint on what may be in store for the future.
Would be a wildly profitable route. For those of us in Hawaii with family in Guam those flights are ridiculously expensive and usually full. United’s customer service in Guam has historically been pretty hit-or-miss, and have always wondered why we don’t hit this route with some competition (seriously, $50 less a ticket and have the gate agents actually smile, and it would be a clean-sweep for HA/AK).
Have wondered for years why we don’t do it. Always been some BS-sounding rumors floating around about a back-room deal between a long-past CEO of HA and Continental / Air Micronesia (which route was subsumed by United into the current flight).
