  1. I’d rather drive to the mainland, but the bridge is out. (This, for one, a Nor’easter joke – between the continent and near islands).

    I’m a fan of the (new) 3D scanners that avoid many many instances of having to open your carry-on at the TSA passenger checkpoint.

    Now, if I could only find a reliable way of weighing luggage before getting to the check-in counter … that would help. The bathroom scale isn’t reliable.

  2. Can only offer my anecdotal evidence, but I’ve notice a drastic decrease recently in Hawaiian Airlines operational ability. Five of the last six flights I’ve been on (to the mainland-over 15 months) were delayed, three of which were delays of 2-4 hours. The sixth flight (returning to HNL) had a 60 minute wait for luggage to even begin emerging on the carousel. Please note that Hawaiian Airlines hides its late departures by adjusting the scheduled departure time to match the delay (I don’t know if this done industry-wide, since I also fly United and simply have never had a delay flying with them to the mainland).

  3. No. Flying to Hawaii is Not the same as visiting any DMV.
    Simple, really, because a visit to the DMV will not result in a visit to Hawaii.
    Answers given are based on questions asked. Bit of a stupid question.
