They are equipped. Not certified.

It will happen soon enough, but not initially.

There are MAX's doing ETOPS for many airlines. The aircraft is most definitely is certified. We may not be, but the aircraft is.

Cost of living in Hawaii -

Gallon of milk $8.00

Cheeseburger and fries at Waikiki $24.00 (beverage is extra)

1 bedroom studio apartment $1800/month.

Since the guy is asking for someone already living in Hawaii, and he goes by "Hawaii808", I'm guessing he already knows what a gallon of milk costs.

To answer the question, no one knows for sure how LAX will shake out when its all said and done - but yes, it's likely a junior guy can hold it and do some HI flying.
