As for the WB jets, we need em. They just pulled DTW and MSP to HNL because they do not have enough WB jets to fly what they want flown, so if we can get some cheap we will get em. I know Jet Star had three 777-200LR's they were shedding too. Emirates is shedding a bunch of their jets as they take delivery of new ones as well. There are a few white tail 744's, 330's, 320's on the used market as well. There are a bunch of 320's with 20K-55K hr on them that are for sale at 6-12 million a copy too. All of those would be great additions to our fleet. I figure we look at all of them.

On your hiring number, that seems to be the constant rumor, but it needed board approval before they hit the execute button.
MSP-HNL and DTW-HNL combined are only one city pair. Service alternated days between those hubs. Rumor is they needed the hulls for the new Africa route. Interesting that they decided to stop flying to hawaii in the cold months. First quarter is always chock full of sporting events in hawaii.
