Tomorrow’s flights start at $59. Just as Hawaiian’s.

How’s mom?

HNL-SJC - 91.92%

Moving up planned expansion by two months with 80 aircraft grounded? I'd say the bean counters like what they see.
Moving up or just not as delayed? I was under the impression the expansion is behind still because of the Max issues.

If you're into older ladies have at it.. Mom jokes aren't as funny when the mom's are retired. And Mom is good, still drink you under the table.

And it should be "Hawaiian's flights are $59 because of SWA."

What were they before we came? $79 each way to start + bag fees?

If you'll look a little closer, you'd see that only 2 of the 6 listed are interisland. Notwithstanding, all of the LF's are solid - especially for a new market.

Moved up. They announced LIH/ITO service just recently, only to amend the launch date from January to November.

Totally unrelated but what’s the deal with Hawaiian gate agents? Maybe I just catch the bad apples on a bad day. Are haole jumpseaters not welcome? Couldn’t have been my outfit. I had on a fresh pair of New Balance sneakers and my best silk Tommy Bahamas Hawaiian shirt, not to mention I was listed. At least SWA always welcomes OAL jumpseaters with a smile.

If you can believe it you get treated better than we do. Pretty unfortunate. Sorry for the trouble, it looks bad on all of us.
