It’s crazy, after 65 years it’s really too bad… competition is always good. When I was there I just flew Hawaiian Airlines inter-island, probably didn’t help. 🙂
I am sure the airfare rates are going to go up now that Aloha Airlines is going out of business. Maybe the superferry won’t be such a bad alternative after all.
@ jim – now we all know it is you we should blame. (Just kidding!)
@ Chris – Hmmm…you bring up an interesting question. Will Aloha’s closing help people warm up to the Superferry? When I was on the Big Island last week, I detected some mixed feelings about the Superferry. Most people seem to be afraid of the unknown.
Sounds like a great time to join the Hawaiian Airlines affiliate program. 😉
Dave – not a bad idea at all!
