I thought this was interesting. The more airlines offering flights to/from Hawaii, maybe, just maybe prices will get competitive. I can only hope. Where I came from (near Boise, ID), Southwest was a sweetheart of an airline for the locals.

I was in Sacramento 3 months ago and asked a pilot for southwest about Hawaii flights after southwest had converted the fleet to etops certified airplanes - he was emphatic - no Hawaii
- not so much about future Cancun plans... I dont know whether my buddy "is in the loop" or whether he was spreading dis information if he is - he was over emphatic - raised an eyebrow too boot.
while on topic....
I dont much care for the southwest boarding procedures - nor what appeared to be hydraulic fluid smears and stains on the starboard wing of this mornings hawaiian A330 (HA-3) flight either....... (I guess you just cant please some folks - grin) Guess I'm just getting old...I cant imagine a major airline leaving the crud after a hydraulic leak repair.....
