  1. Thank you Southwest. You’re the best and a role model for other airlines .
    We ❤️❤️ You very much+++++

    1. Hi Andy.

      At this point, all bets are off the table on new routes. It certainly was their intention at one point, but that was before the world changed.

      Aloha.

  2. Talk about mixed signals. United announced today that it would be laying off 15,000 employs come Oct 1st, if it didn’t get additional government funding. Also, keeping up with Lt governor Green who is now sick covid.
    Aloha Guys.

  3. The point was brought up about $99 fares being unsustainable and it’s a good one…..like any new entrant to a market
    SWA is going to try and get a foothold in it by money losing fares for some seats. It’s not altruistic, it’s an attempt to expand.
    Double edge sword, for the time being Hawaii needs tourism to return ASAP. But……Hawaii cannot support a tourist market that is based on volume as the number one driver. It simply can’t support unfettered growth and if SWA wants to expand to the point of over capacity
    and high volume cheap seats they may not be all that well received here. Hawaii is currently wrestling with how to manage the return of tourism and the long term view of quality over quantity is a very popular one here right now.

    1. looking for flights ✈️ from Sacramento to Maui round trip. It’s been so long. Two years ago my husband passed and Maui was our favorite place.
      I am now 77yrs old and feel a need to be there again.
      Thanks n many blessings
