As has already been said, outsourcing inter-island flying is already allowed by our CBA. Same with intra-Alaska and Caribbean inter-island.

The plan is multi-leg itineraries to Tahiti in a 737. The HNL layover will give enough time for the pax to eat at a buffet with soggy food and nowhere to sit. Free pretzels on the counter until they run out.
