Hard to tell how many they'll hire this year. It depends on how many of the 767s are returned to lessors as the 5 A330s are delivered, and the resulting net increase to the fleet. No one really seems to know at this point.

Aloha!
 

I really want to work for HAL. Don't really have good connections but I'm just gonna keep on applying and hopefully one day get even just an interview. I'm not a high time pilot either just an fo with about 3700 total mostly RJ time,no type yet but soon,hopefully in May.

good luck to all of us! :) thanks HAL for the chance and opportunity! I hope to join your group soon!

Mahalo!

story I got from the meeting over the NEO's is we're giving back 4 767's and taking 5 busses... with the new rest rules, they expect to hire, but mainly for the rules not so much growth... More growth in 2014..

Is there a way to change,update, replace the attachments on the applications online? Thank you.

Did you ever figured out how to delete? Thanks

was there a phase lll recently? or did these 4 do phase lll awhile ago and just didn't take the first available class?

I guess this is the reason for the stock diving today...

HONOLULU (AP) -- Hawaiian Airlines lost $3.4 million in the fourth quarter after recording nearly $12 million in interest expenses and nearly $9 million in losses on fuel derivatives, the Honolulu company said Tuesday.

The airline's parent, Hawaiian Holdings Inc., said revenue totaled nearly $493 million during the three months that ended Dec. 31.

The loss compared with a profit of $20.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Hawaiian CEO Mark Dunkerley said the results were disappointing after a year of growth and improving financial results.

"The sharp weakening of the yen, continued excess capacity in certain markets and an accounting charge all worked to depress our earnings for the period despite many other things going right for the business," Dunkerley said.

The loss amounted to 7 cents per share. The airline said it had adjusted net income of about $100,000, which was less than a penny per share.

Analysts polled by FactSet had expected revenue of $503 million and adjusted income of 11 cents per share.

Hawaiian posted a profit of $53.2 million for the full year. That compared with a loss of $2.6 million in 2011.

Shares of Hawaiian were unchanged at $6.54 in afterhours trading Tuesday after holding steady during the day. The stock has had a 52-week high of $7.30.

The airline launched four new routes from Honolulu in 2012: to Fukuoka and Sapporo in Japan, plus Brisbane, Australia and New York. It also announced new service from Honolulu to Taiwan, increased service between Honolulu and Sydney, and increased service between Maui and Los Angeles.

The airline recently announced a planned expansion with 16 new Airbus planes for routes between Hawaii and the U.S. West Coast.

"2013 promises to be an equally exciting year for the company with new destinations, new aircraft and more employees being planned," Dunkerley said.

With close to $400M in unrestricted cash this is hardly anything for concern. Growth is expensive. The fact that they haven't been losing money all along is amazing.

I completed Phase III the end of Nov. This was the first class I was offered. Believe me if I had been offered an earlier one I would've taken it! :)

CAT 3 is correct. During investors conference call CEO Dunkerly indicated the company plans to return 4 767s this year while taking dellivery of 5 A330s, for a net increase of only one aircraft. This one airplane would only represent about 12 to 15 new hires, absent hiring for new regs, at least until late fall when they'd have to spool up for 2014 deliveries. But, that's all subject to change as the year progresses.
