Well GO! was competing against Aloha who had been there for a good while. GO! ran Aloha under which was a much stronger airline than GO! is now. They should be easy for RAH to topple then take the routes Aloha flew. That's just a guess.

I said before this is a cheap way to go branded without going branded, if that makes any sense. I don't know what BB has in mind.

Ok, it seems they are starting with HNL, KOA, and LIH... adding ITO and OGG next year.

Mokulele expands in isle market - News - Starbulletin.com

Excerpt:

Mokulele operates three of the jets under the go!Express name, although Mokulele owns the jets. Boyer declined to comment on whether that agreement would continue.

"Jonathan's partnership with us is for the Express for the interislands that they can't operate," he said of Mesa CEO Jonathan Ornstein. "Go! can only handle so many people with 50-seat aircraft. We are a great complement."

Ornstein said in an interview yesterday that he was surprised and disappointed by Boyer's partnership with Republic.

"We booked his passengers, and we did everything as a good partner and he has developed a really good franchise with our brand name," Ornstein said. "We have funded his operation, and he owes us a significant amount of money and we hope that he will pay his bills. It is too early to tell how this affects our relationship."
This is Boyer's way of thanking Ornstein for taking out Aloha Airlines while he rode on the coattails of go! What a class act!

It's a doggy-dog world.

Or in this case, corrupt ceo vs corrupt ceo world.

Congrats to the Republic pilots though, at least they are paid more than Mesa pilots.

I don't think he's done anything to be a corrupt CEO just yet. He seems to be a business man. 4 jets flying for them would be nice though.

First off Ornstein is getting a taste of his own medicine. Second, if Mesa decided to pull out of Hawaii it would've left Mokulele hanging... Mr Boyer is just looking out for his investment.
When Mr Boyer bought Mokulele it was nothing more than a tour company with barely running chieftans.... Now 3yrs later he has a fleet of 208's multiple airline partners and now ERJ 170's. If thats not ambitious please tell me what is.... Oh, and Mokulele pay's their employees alot more than Mesa does... I guess thats why Mesa employees are applying to work for Mokulele.

Is there a duty rig that makes the credit more than block?

You'd be whooped at the end of that day!
