#HawaiianAir no longer has free meals... but the meals they do serve at cost are quite good. Especially relative to the trash other airlines serve.

Alaska Air Group CEO Ben Minicucci spent six months negotiating the purchase of Haiwaiian Airlines in a bid to grow his company. But the market hasn’t warmed to an acquisition that faces tough antitrust scrutiny. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2023/12/05/companies/alaska-airlines-ceo-hawaiian-air/?utm_content=buffer644d0&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #business #companies #airlines #alaskaairlines #hawaiianair #hawaii

That's right: I'm flying INTO Kahului, Maui.

I'm flying into an island that's on fire. People are trying to get OFF the island I'm flying into.

This is ridiculous.

TMW your non-stop flight out of Hawaii is suddenly cancelled at 7:00AM & every other non-stop flight out is either cancelled or booked full...
...so Hawaiian Air moves you to a one-stop flight to Maui - yes, the island currently on fire - for another flight leaving Kahului, Maui for Los Angeles...
...which just got delayed by 13hrs, meaning we'll be in the airport living at the gate & in the bathrooms like Viktor Navorski until tomorrow at noon.

Sigh.

So Alaska Airlines has nonstop, round trip flights from Los Angeles (LAX) to Honolulu, HI (HNL) at ~9:00AM daily for <$450... as does United, American & Delta.

None of them are in Terminal B/Gates 200-225 of Tom Bradley International. They all have appear to have reasonable gate locations - significantly less than half a mile from their respective ticket counter. Unlike #HawaiianAir.

Warning to all Hawaiian Airlines travellers flying out of Los Angeles-based gates:

There is a HALF-MILE trek across floors in LAX required to get to your gate from the main terminal.

None of the people movers ever work despite there being 3 of them along the route at Tom Bradley.

The haul is so excruciating, elderly have to stop to rest halfway to HA's 200-225 gates.

Don't believe me? A journalist actually wrote about how bad this is:
