Is AAG planning future services to Guam?
 

Not trying to spread any rumors but I just want to see if anyone has heard anything about future plans for AAG flying routes to Guam?

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.

Sounds like you're less in the dark than all of us.

You haven't heard were merging with United? I'm sure that will start again.

big true. Also they’re giving all pilots involved in the merger 1000 shares of Pnut the Squirrel crypto and uniforms are now optional.

Working nude? im a YES vote!

hell yeah this will round out my Logan Paul coin and cumrocket coin crypto portfolio nicely

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).

Anything that seemingly made sense, or may be profitable, was obviously avoided by our last CEO/President. Instead, send new planes to same destinations over and over and wait for Japan...

much stonks, very profit

He was brilliant. People just don’t give him credit for what he was actually brilliant at doing. Specifically, front-loading useless costs such as Amadeus (which is going right back to Sabre now, if I read correctly) and making route decisions based on the best-case “let’s not miss the boat” case of the central banks of both Japan and the USA….

​​​​​​…..and making the airline’s market cap attractive for a buyout due to forces “completely out of our control”, which was likely his goal the entire time.
