Inter-Island Fare War
Updated 6/26/09:
Go!, Hawaiian and Mokulele remain at a base price of $43 per flight for the foreseeable future. Of note this morning, however, is that Mokulele is showing some $48 base fares starting later this summer. They’re testing the water to see if the other two carriers will join. I expect we’ll continue to see occasional on-and-off price fluctuations, both up and down. Stay tuned.
Keep in mind that all three carriers are beginning to inch their way higher, sometimes as much as double or triple, for the most desirable flight times. Booking early is key to getting the lower priced tickets at the best times.
Inter-island airfare prices remain in a state of flux due to having three major players. No one knows when the inter-island fare war will start or stop, as it has a life of its own. If you want the deals you find today, however, don’t wait to buy them as they could be off-again at any moment.

Right on schedule, the Hawaii inter-island airfare war is back again. It was restarted late this evening by Mokulele in honor of their February 1 inaugural service between Oahu and Maui.
