Hilo flights to cost more
#38
Jay is right. As the air density makes a big difference. Theoretically a heavy plane on a long runway could still take off from a high altitude, but the ground speed to lift off would be greater than the max. tire speed (I think about 230mph). So when at higher altitudes, they need longer runways and also can't carry the max. takeoff weight.
