Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but I thought the airlines had to continue flying its routes as a stipulation for receiving the aid. Didn't HAL take a break from a lot of their routes?

HAL has a signed letter by all 4 mayors and the governor when they applied for an exemption. The effort was to limit the spread and protect our islands. Another big plus was because we are a small carrier, 1/3 of our grant was 100 million which was not used in the 30% loan calculation. So we only have to pay back 20% of the total received. I’m sure we’ll gradually resume more flying by June and feed the outer islands.

Carriers must resume all flying within 7 days of receiving CARES funds.
DOT is ruling on waiver requests for the next few days.

I expect consolidation and code sharing.

Would be the best thing for the industry as a whole, but the revenue sharing terms and red tape would be an absolute nightmare. Carrier consolidation (M&A) would also be beneficial, but no airline is gonna have the money for that in the near term.

Does that mean all the 330's that are parked on 8L will start flying again?

All CARES Act exemptions to fly to the mainland (other than LAX and SFO), PPG, and JHM were approved by the DOT.

Good news. Can you post a link, I only see DOT ‘action taken’ on Spirit and Jetblue per Regulations.gov thanks.
