Hawaiian Airlines
Updated: Wikipedia source
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (Hawaiian: Hui Mokulele o Hawaiʻi [huwi mokulele o həˈʋɐjʔi]) is a U.S. commercial airline brand and former airline headquartered in Honolulu. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Alaska Air Group. Between 1929 and 2025, it was the largest operator of commercial flights to and from the island state of Hawaiʻi, and the tenth largest commercial airline in the United States by passengers carried. Operating from its primary hub at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport on Oʻahu and a secondary hub at Kahului Airport on Maui, the airline provided inter-island flights within Hawaiʻi, routes to other Pacific island destinations, including American Samoa and Tahiti, service to Alaska and the U.S. mainland, and international connections to Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand and South Korea. Hawaiian was the oldest American carrier that never had a fatal accident or a hull loss and consistently ranked as the nation’s most punctual airline. It also led in reliability metrics, including the fewest cancellations, overbookings, and baggage handling issues. On December 3, 2023, Alaska Air Group announced that it planned to purchase Hawaiian Airlines. After receiving regulatory approval, the acquisition was completed on September 18, 2024. On October 29, 2025, flight HA866, flying between Pago Pago and Honolulu, was the final flight operated by Hawaiian as an independent carrier, ending 96 years of service as Hawaii's airline. As both Alaska Airlines and Hawaiian were granted a Single Operating Certificate from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), all subsequent Hawaiian–branded flights will be operated by Alaska Airlines using Alaska's airline call sign.
