3 new Hawaiian routes announced today. OGG-HNL will be interesting to operate nonstop.

Non starter. Not only would you never come remotely close to 50%+1 voting for that, I don't think it would even be legal. If it somehow did happen, the already low chance of being released to a 30 day cooling off period would drop to precisely 0.00% and the company would have unilateral leverage for life.

Very bad idea.

I see DTW/JFK-HNL and ATL-OGG. Where did you see OGG-HNL?

Sorry, I meant OGG to ATL. I suspect however there will be more than a few tech stops in HNL for fuel.

the 767-300 I think. That’s just what I recall from press release. I haven’t flown it, no idea if it can do it

Really? That seems like it would rapidly wipe out the razor thin margins that hyper-competitive market offers.

It’s a 4000 mile trip off a 7000 foot runway. When I flew it to LAX in a widebody we needed a dry runway and 12 knots of headwind. I am told UAL flies it to EWR. It would be interesting to see their stats. I also suspect OGG has better yields than HNL.

L15 used to do OGG/ATL. Anyone remember if it ever had any restrictions?

Not our problem. Aeromexico will be flying the route on a 787.
