Always remember this story of the plane tearing apart midflight...

No kidding about competition. Alaska Airlines is flying there so they lost the very profitable Anchorage - Honolulu route.

All that means for us, is it will now be very expensive and difficult to vacation in HI. Sigh - I guess it's back to SoAz or SoCal to thaw out and enjoy a In and Out Burger.

Sorry to hear that. They were a lovely little airline.

This will make Inter Island travel a nightmare.

Flew on them many times interisland. They have been in existence since 1946. Very sad.

Flew Aloha last December; I can understand why they went under. They blow.

Aloooooha! Sad. I remember flying them in the past, sitting behind the pilot who was flying with his window open. I loved the refreshment service: (With dixie cups and can in hand) “Guava juice? Or no guava juice? Guava juice? Or no guava juice?”

Pineapples gone, now aloha airline gone; all due to skyhigh labor rates in Hawaii, what’s next?

There’s still Go! Airlines. Their pilots are rested and ready for service.
