Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. flies between the Hawaiian Islands, several cities in the western U.S. mainland and South Pacific destinations. Billing itself as Hawaii's "flagship" carrier, it seeks to outpace even the Concorde (which does visit Hawaii rarely on world tours) by infusing five million passengers per year with Hawaiian sights, sounds, and smells as soon as they step into the plane. In spite of high ratings from customers, Hawaiian often finds itself navigating over financially dire straits.

Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. began as Inter-Island Airways, Ltd., the brainchild of naval aviator Stanley Kennedy. In 1929, Kennedy was employed as general manager of Inter-Island Steam Navigation Company, whose directors he persuaded to establish a passenger airline linking the major Hawaiian Islands. The company was incorporated on January 30 and its first flights departed John Rogers Airport in Honolulu on November 11, bound for Maui and Hawaii (the Big Island), the beginning of thrice-weekly service. The company's fleet consisted of two amphibious Sikorsky S-38s, which carried eight passengers each. At that time, statehood was several decades away, although Hawaii had already become a coveted, if remote, tourist destination. Inter-Island introduced airmail service between Oahu (site of Honolulu), Hawaii, and Kauai in 1934. The next year the fleet expanded to include 16-passenger Sikorsky S-43s to accommodate the mail and increased passenger traffic.

The company became known as Hawaiian Airlines in 1941. The ubiquitous twin-engine Douglas DC-3 gave Hawaiian still more capacity and began its long-term relationship with the manufacturer. During WWII, all inter-island flights were placed under military jurisdiction. Its planes were also used in wartime to carry cargo and service nearby Pacific islands. Between 1944 and 1948, TWA was a one-fifth owner of the company.

Competition had landed in the islands with the 1946 creation of Trans-Pacific Airlines, forerunner of Aloha Airlines. The Convair 340s Hawaiian added in 1952 gave it the advantage of modern, air conditioned and pressurized cabins. A single four-engine DC-6 purchased in 1958 allowed the carrier to operate long-distance military charters. In 1966, booming residential and tourist traffic prompted Hawaiian to begin operating the McDonnell Douglas DC-9, the first jet turbine aircraft to be used on inter-island flights. The islands were now no more than 30 minutes from each other. This type would be used for at least 30 more years.

Although Hawaiian typically was able to bring the newest, most advanced aircraft to the market, competition with Aloha reduced both carriers' margins so severely that the two agreed to merge in 1970--a plan which was abandoned the next year.

In the late 1970s, deregulation brought still more cutthroat competition. Although deregulation allowed the company to add service to the South Pacific (Pago Pago, American Samoa, and Nuku'alofa, Tonga), and was able to fill its planes more than any other airline, the amount the company made per passenger was not similarly impressive. In 1982, Hawaiian adopted the corporate name HAL.

Along with the new South Pacific scheduled routes, overseas charter services were offered in 1984 with the company's three DC-8s. Five of the popular Lockheed L-1011 widebody aircraft were added the next year to fulfill these roles as well. In addition, HAL began serving the West Coast via Los Angeles. Routes to San Francisco and Seattle were added in 1986. A fare war ensued between United and Continental, which also served Hawaii from the West Coast. The year would show the company's last profit for at least another decade.

The company built the West Maui Airport in 1987. HAL also stepped up its offering to Polynesia. By 1987, Western Samoa, Tahiti, and Rarotonga were linked with Hawaii, not by outrigger canoe, but DC-8 jetliner.

A group of investors led by Jet America founder J. Thomas Talbot bought a 46.5 percent stake in HAL for $37 million in 1989. Talbot assumed the positions of CEO and chairman. Former baseball commissioner Peter Ueberroth was also an investor in the Talbot group.

Although there were some minor incidents, HAL had built an impressive safety record while transporting more than 100 million passengers. In 1990, Condé Nast Traveler pronounced the airline one of the world's safest after a 20-year survey. The magazine's readers also consistently ranked it one of their favorites in the U.S. The carrier was recognized by the trade magazine Onboard Services and the World Airline Entertainment Association for its superior in-flight cuisine and audio programs.

Challenges against the airline mounted in 1991. After 45 years, Aloha Airlines finally succeeded in capturing the dominant share (61 percent) of inter-island traffic. HAL also lost three South Pacific routes to Northwest Airlines in a deal which gave Northwest a minority share (25 percent) in exchange for $20 million. Peter Ueberroth's younger brother John, who had previously led the Carlson Travel Group, succeeded Talbot as HAL chairman. Losses for 1991 amounted to $99 million (including a one-time accounting charge of $36.7 million).

As if ferocious competition and high fuel costs were not enough to deflate the company's tentative comeback, Hurricane Iniki chased away an estimated $7 million of HAL's business in 1992. The next year, it opted for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and John Ueberroth stepped down as chairman.

In 1993, the company sold the DC-8s that it had used on South Pacific flights, resulting in more modest Polynesian coverage. The next year, it ceased flights to West Maui Airport, which could not service jets, as it sold its fleet of propeller-driven aircraft. (Jets could operate from Maui's Kahului Airport; eventually HAL would fly between Maui and the Mainland in direct competition with a United Airlines route.) Further competition landed in the fall of 1994 in the form of budget carrier Mahalo Air.

The company resumed its old name of Hawaiian Airlines as it emerged from bankruptcy protection in 1994, still able to fly but also susceptible to chronic cash shortages. AMR Corp., parent of American Airlines, began providing technical expertise to Hawaiian, which enrolled in American's frequent flyer program and replaced its L-1011s with DC-10s leased from AMR, which also assumed maintenance duties.

New York's Smith Management Co. provided $20 million of desperately needed cash in 1996. The Airline Investors Partnership it assembled bought two-thirds of the company, and Smith president John Adams assumed the role of chairman of the Hawaiian board. The group nevertheless displayed such confidence in Nobles that he retained the duties of CEO and president. The airline needed a $3 million loan from Smith to keep running until the deal could be approved. Later in the year, a Hawaiian stock offering raised $39 million.

Various players made concessions to keep Hawaiian in the sky. AMR Corp. extended the carrier credit and reduced its rates on Hawaiian's leased DC-10 jets by nearly 30 percent. Hawaiian's four unions approved less remunerative contracts.

Hawaiian was a very busy airline, operating over 150 flights per day, and its volume increased steadily into the late 1990s. Its new route to Las Vegas, the favorite holiday destination of Hawaii residents, proved highly popular. However, higher fuel costs for its longer flights gutted profits. The company lost $2.4 million in the first quarter of 1997 and $4.1 million for the previous year, thanks to a 20 percent increase in fuel prices.

Hawaiian Airlines served 14 destinations. Its 50 percent market share in inter-island flights (to the six major Hawaiian Islands) accounted for about 40 percent of revenues. Daily West Coast flights (to Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Las Vegas, and Portland) brought in another 50 percent, with about six percent coming from the company's air service to weekly flights to the South Pacific (American Samoa and Tahiti, where the company had a monopoly on air service to and from Honolulu). The company maintained limited cargo and mail operations. In the late-1990s, its fleet was comprised of about 13 DC-9s (all but two leased) for inter-island flights and 8 DC-10s (all leased) for long-range flights.

In February 1997, Bruce Nobles stepped down as CEO to be replaced by travel executive Paul Casey. In spite of a slack tourist market in Hawaii (which prompted the state to suspend airport landing fees), a number of initiatives seemed likely to pay off for the airline. It began using the new AIRMAX computerized routing system, supplied by AMR subsidiary SABRE Decision Technologies, which promised more efficient scheduling of flights. The airline took part in the trials of a new satellite-based system designed to allow pilots greater control in selecting routes. And code-sharing agreements with American, Continental, Northwest, and Reno Air should ensure a steady flow of customers from the Mainland. These factors, and the backing of enthusiastic supporters, suggested a positive outlook for Hawaiian Airlines.

History

Inter-Island Airways, the forerunner of the airline which is now known as Hawaiian Airlines, was incorporated on January 30, 1929. Inter-Island Airways, a subsidiary of Inter-Island Steam Navigation Company, began operations on October 6, 1929 with a Bellanca CH-300 Pacemaker, providing short sightseeing flights over Oʽahu.^[4]^[5] Scheduled service began a month later on November 11 using Sikorsky S-38s with a flight from Honolulu to Hilo, via intermediary stops on Molokai and Maui.^[6].

On October 1, 1941, the name was changed to Hawaiian Airlines^[7] when the company phased out the older Sikorsky S-38 and Sikorsky S-43 flying boats. In 1966 jet travel started with the acquisition of Douglas DC-9 aircraft, which cut travel times in half on most of the routes. In 1984 the company began to operate charter services to the South Pacific using Douglas DC-8 aircraft, and soon added Lockheed L-1011 aircraft to the fleet for West Coast services. As the west coast market grew, the South Pacific market shrunk, and service was reduced when the company's DC-8s were retired in 1993; and when the L-1011s were replaced by the McDonnell Douglas DC-10 in 1994.

The DC-10s were obtained from American Airlines, who continued to provide maintenance on the aircraft. An agreement with American also included converting to American's SABRE reservation system and participation in American Airlines' AAdvantage frequent flyer program. The DC-10s were retired between 2002 and 2003.^[8] The company replaced these leased DC-10s with 14 leased Boeing 767 aircraft during the fleet modernization, and replaced the DC-9s with Boeing 717 aircraft.

Hawaiian Airlines filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on March 21, 2003 with operations still continuing, and at the time was overdue for $4.5 million USD worth of payments to the pilots' pension plan. Within the company, it was suggested that the plan be terminated. As of May 2005, Hawaiian Airlines had received court approval of its reorganization plan. The company emerged from bankruptcy protection on June 2, 2005, with reduced operating costs through renegotiated contracts with its union work groups; restructured aircraft leases; and investment from RC Aviation, a unit of San Diego-based Ranch Capital, which bought a majority share in parent company Hawaiian Holdings Inc in 2004.

Hawaiian has never had a fatal accident in its entire history and is the oldest US carrier with such a distinction (the other airlines in this group have have been in business less than 40 years). Hawaiian Airlines was the number one on-time carrier in the United States from November 2003 until November 2006, when rival Aloha Airlines took the number one spot, pushing Hawaiian to a close second.^[10]^[11] The airline has also frequently been number one in fewest cancellations, baggage handling, and fewest oversales. Hawaiian Airlines has been rated the best carrier serving Hawaii by Travel + Leisure,^[12] Zagat, and Condé Nast Traveler.^[13]

On May 4, 2006 Hawaiian Airlines announced expanded service between the U.S. mainland and Hawaii in anticipation of the induction of four additional Boeing 767-300 aircraft, primarily focused on expanding non-stop service to Kahului Airport from San Diego, Seattle, and Portland. Additional flights have also been added between Honolulu and the cities of Sacramento, Seattle and Los Angeles.

On July 24, 2007 Hawaiian Airlines and Air New Zealand signed a $45 million contract for Air New Zealand to perform heavy maintenance on Hawaiian's Boeing 767 aircraft. The contract is to last for five years. Air New Zealand stated that this opportunity will also give a chance for them to build their expertise working on 767s.^[14]

On August 27, 2007 the airline announced plans to launch flights to Manila in the Philippines. Hawaiian Airlines said it will begin nonstop service to the Philippines in March 2008, in the first major international expansion since it emerged from bankruptcy protection in June 2005.^[15]^[16] In response to the closure of ATA Airlines and Aloha Airlines, the airline announced new flights to Oakland beginning on 1 May 2008.^[17]

In August 2007 the Seattle Seahawks announced that they would be flying on Hawaiian Airlines for the upcoming National Football League seasons. This marks the second team that Hawaiian Airlines will be flying. The Oakland Raiders of the NFL have also been flying Hawaiian Airlines since the 1990s. The two teams fly on Hawaiian's Boeing 767s to and from all their games. Two of Hawaiian's Boeing 767 aircraft have been fitted with decals of logos from the Seahawks and the Raiders.

Long haul fleet renewal

On November 27, 2007, Hawaiian Airlines signed a MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) with Airbus for 24 long-range jets priced at $4.4 billion. The order includes six Airbus A330-200s with a further six purchase rights; and six Airbus A350-800s with a further six purchase rights. Deliveries for the A330s begin in 2012 while the first A350 will be delivered in 2017.^[24] Mark Dunkerley, President and CEO of the airline has stated that the addition of the A330 aircraft will finally make nonstop flights to the U.S. East Coast economically feasible, as the current Boeing 767s face weight penalties during parts of the year.

These new Airbus A330s will be equipped with Panasonic Avionics Corporation's new eX2 in-seat audio/video-on-demand in-flight entertainment system.^[25]

On October 27 2008, Hawaiian announced that prior to the arrival of its new A330s, it would lease two additional Airbus A330-200 aircraft from AWAS beginning in 2011, at the same time extending the leases of two Boeing 767-300ER aircraft from AWAS to 2011 (to be withdrawn from service coincident with the delivery of the A330s).^[26] Two weeks later, the airline announced the lease of an additional A330-200 from CIT Aerospace for delivery in 2010 and that one of the A330s coming from AWAS would also be delivered in 2010.^[27]

Fleet adjustments in light of Aloha Airlines and ATA shutdowns

Shortly after the Aloha Airlines shutdown, Hawaiian used one of its Boeing 767-300ER wide-body aircraft (normally used for trans-pacific flights), for several inter-island flights (which Hawaiian normally uses its narrow-body Boeing 717) due to the large number of stranded Aloha passengers needing flights to the other Hawaiian islands.

On April 30, 2008, Hawaiian's President and CEO commented during a quarterly conference call that Hawaiian Airlines was in talks to acquire additional aircraft to meet demand due to the shutdown of Aloha Airlines' passenger operations and the closing of ATA Airlines. No firm agreements had been signed, but two options were given for the inter-island fleet: Leasing additional 717s from existing lessors or leasing McDonnell Douglas MD-80 aircraft on short-term leases. If the MD-80 had been chosen, it would have been the second time Hawaiian Airlines used that aircraft in its history. Hawaiian previously flew a small number of MD-80 aircraft during the 1980s. Also mentioned was a letter of intent for the acquisition of an additional Boeing 767-300ER to join the fleet. ^[28]

On June 4, 2008, the airline announced that it had agreed to lease an additional four 717s from Boeing Capital, with deliveries between September and the end of 2008.^[29]

Hawaiian Airlines stock

Hawaiian Airlines trades under parent company Hawaiian Holdings under the NASDAQ Global Market stock symbol HA. Previously listed on the American Stock Exchange, the company moved to NASDAQ on June 2, 2008.^[30] Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. is a holding company whose primary asset is the sole ownership of all issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. On June 30, 2008, the company announced that it had been added to the Russell 3000 Index.^[31]

Inflight services

Hawaiian provides complimentary and paid beverage service on all of its flights. Meals are not provided on interisland flights due to their short length (30-40 minutes). On its U.S. mainland and international flights, Hawaiian offers free meals in coach; each meal includes a dessert. Passengers in coach can also opt to pay for an "Ono Bistro" premium meal, which is made without preservatives and comes with a dessert and bottled water.^[32]

In March 2007, Hawaiian introduced a "tasting menu" for its first class passengers on its U.S. mainland and international flights. The menu is comprised of twenty different entrees set on a rotation, with five available on any given flight. Passengers are provided information on the available entrees for their flight when they board, or shortly after takeoff, and may choose up to three entrees as part of their inflight meal.^[33]

Accidents and incidents

On 27 June 1969, a Vickers 754D Viscount operated by Aloha Airlines was taxiing for departure from Honolulu International Airport when it lost brakes and steering. The Viscount then struck a parked Hawaiian Airlines Douglas DC-9-31, N906H. The Viscount was damaged beyond repair.^[34]
