Go, Aloha, Hawaiian, or Island?
Hey Everyone
I am planning a trip to Hawaii and will spending time on more than one island. Just wondering which airline I should select for my inter- island flight, Go, Hawaiian, Aloha, or Island? Thanks HBS |

Thanks HBS It's been a while since we've been so this may have changed but some airlines fly larger planes than others. For us that made a difference since my wife won't fly commuter planes. I am planning a trip to Hawaii for this coming may was thinking about using a commuter airline like GO. I say this simply, as it may be quicker (smaller plane, smaller terminal, and so on). Michael |

I remember it wasn't a commuter plane that had part of the fuselage rip away on an Hawaian flight. |

You're talking 30 minute flights here, so even "bad" wouldn't be. Generally, you may want to stay with Hawaiian or Aloha as (1) they interline with your mainland-to-Hawaii carrier, (2) you can collect mileage points on partner airlines, (3) they fly 717's (Hawaiian) and 737's (Aloha) rather than commuter CRJ's (Go!) or Dash 8's (Island). Fares are pretty close on each. Between Honolulu and Maui, you may also want to consider the Super Ferry service which takes about 4 hours. |

It hasn't been a problem arranging flights on a carrier that uses larger planes so it's not worth fighting the fight. I never researched it but we usually travel with the maximum amount of luggage and I don't know if that would be a problem on a commuter plane. We've never had to fly a commuter plane anywhere so I'm not familiar with them. |

that had part of the fuselage rip away on an Hawaian flight. Yeah, but the pax certainly had a spectacular view of the island scenery. Can't imagine why more airlines haven't adopted the same 'open canopy' service. |

Stick with Aloha Hawaiian or Island Air.
GO! (mesa airlines) lost a lawsuit to the tune of 90 million dollars recently to Hawaiian. If your Go flight can not fly for any reason, YOU ARE S.O.L. They have no interisland codeshare with the majors. None will do any sort of interline agreement with GO. That means they will not tranfer you to another airline and you cannot transfer luggage like the other will do for one another. I HAD to fly GO! once and it was fine in the air, but the seats are TINY and in Oahu you use the commuter terminal which means u walk outside onto the tarmac and up stairs to your plane (even in the rain). with Aloha you can get Aloha or United miles Hawaiian I believe is American or Hawaiian miles I live in Hawaii and only use Aloha Hawaiian or Island Air in that order. |
