People can buy the tickets and if they don’t need to go, simply cancel and the credit is good for a year with no penalty. We’re seeing high numbers of this happening.

Only 4 flights, but here’s the loads for Friday HNL to KOA.

Wow, high loads. What about a non-holiday weekday. Let’s say Sep 4th or 11th?

Sorry I couldn't do a cool screenshot.

Our flights to KOA at the same departure times as yours (usually 2 flights to your 1) are either oversold or showing 2-3 seat avail. The other 19 flights are mostly full, except for maybe the 5:30am flight..... BTW Fridays are always full.

Congrats on selling a last minute seat for $39.. should keep the route real profitable. It's actually quite telling that a day before, your planes are not going out even close to full, and need a $39 fare to sell the seat.

If your ever traveling inter island your welcome to the jumpseat anytime.

Come on man. Where’s your Warrior Spirit? You’ll never pass that SWA interview with that kind of attitude.

Talk to me in about 30 years when I retire. I hope that is true.

First off, you make it way too enjoyable getting under your skin.

Second, can't believe you took my line without giving credit. Weak. And I've been on Hawaiian jumpseat..the CA ate half of my sunflower seeds..ranch flavor as well. Rude
