So if interisland for you guys is going to basically be the middle day of a 3 day trip, what happens if someone calls in sick on day 2? I am assuming someone thought ahead about that and the plan would not be to cancel the entire interisland line, so are there plans to have reserves based in HNL?

Think we’re gonna be continuously weight restricted? Many of the flights show sold out on our website yet Swalife shows 19 open. Hopefully once we get our feet wet, those numbers will change. It’ll be highly dependent on freight I assume.

Freight on a 737???? I think the winds of the day will be the biggest determinant. Truth be told, the 737 was not designed to fly ETOPS from the get go, so flying it to Hawaii, while feasible and profitable, isn't always the correct metal based on performance.

I would go with that feeling. The SWAPA contract admin chair called yesterday and they said they have no intention of following them.
Allegedly, they have already put training on top of TGDOs for those slated for April ETOPS. Should be a good time. Screw that family trip/wedding/bar mitzvah you have been planning for months, we need you in Dallas NOW!
