Aloha Airlines abruptly ended 62 years of service today when it shut down today.
They were the victim of a prolonged interisland fare war with Hawaiian and Go which saw advance purchase one-way flights plummet from over $100 to just $19-$49.
It should be interesting to see what interisland fares will do in the coming months with the market narrowed to 2 players.
I flew with them a few months ago between the paradises of Maui and Kauai (they were the only airline that flew the route nonstop). I can’t say that it was the best experience-I’m not a fan of Southwest style open seating and the bilingual signs on their ratty 737-200’s didn’t exactly inspire confidence…

Hello Aloha means hello!!!
According to Wikipedia it also means goodbye, hello and various other terms. (Yes, you should believe everything you see on the internet)
Nice pic btw, Dan.
I think it says “Asharat Asatalam”, but I can’t make out the words too well and I don’t know what that means anyways…
Wait i think i know what it says in english:
Free Translation;
“Attn: all Mohammed’s Please take all used blades after you are done terrorizing the plane and kindly dispose of your weapons here
thank you
aloha akbar”
Lol! nice pic Dan :^)
