Did the same thing to Hawai'i... everyone complained about their service in Kalaupapa (sp?) (LUP) and he axed his "Pacific Wings Express" $39 model and jacked the fares up to like $298 one way, while Mokulele and Island Air were still only charging $69 to go to Molokai/Ho'olehua.
Wasn't the Kahului airport upset with him during the two other incidents? (latest being fuel spill in hangar)
