Alaska Hawaiian Merger Serious Version

[Roger Roger]

What about PAWG to PAPG? Back when we were allowed to fly VFR. Before a few clowns ruined that by intentionally setting off the GPWS. Captains used to brag about how their “record was 7 minutes!”

When asking me to get a VFR clearance and file a VFR flight plan with Juneau radio of course…

The data from that leg that we got shown in new hire ground was…..enlightening

Probably not. HNL - OGG is 88 miles I think? Or maybe that's HNL- LIH? It's been a while since I've flown inter Island legs. I think KOA - OGG is probably the shortest though.

Ironically, the shortest legs I've done since I got out here have been on the 330, doing Honolulu to K-Bay, and Osan to Incheon.

Is your shop keeping the 330's as new 789's enter the fleet. PHX-HNL is all 787's now, from what I see. Not sure of other domestic markets.

Unknown.

LAX was the other flight, although they are starting to move the planes around a bit now.

How cheap are the leases on the A330s? I could see them being kept around for a while if they weren’t too expensive.

Cheaper than buying new 787s.

You forgot…
