I love the Hawaiian culture , the dances and their language. I had the chance to be on your islands for 3 times and it was a trip of a lifetime. Many greetings to Mr.and Mrs. Milovina from Maui. You guys are fantastic. Domo arigato. Aloha from Berlin / Germany

Why not Hawaiian 2 "Heavy"?

[MetalTeamster]

Hawaian Airlines is the best airline in the WORLD ! Flown over 10 round trips from Seattle with them. Always will fly them !

Hawaiian needs the B777

[GreekLegend]

@ikolkyo967 nah they don't they're fine with the fleet they have.. the 787 is something they should definatly consider however..

[FrisoLustig]

@GreekLegend: negative, why, they have quite new B767 and their A330-200s are brand new. The 787 is of course newer and more economical but the a330-200 is perfect for the next decade or so. With the A350 on order, I don't believe HA will follow the queue (of 900 ordered planes).

[FrisoLustig]

@ikolkyo967 why? be objective please. those are more than 150 seats extra per plane (bearing in mind that a A330-300 is more economical than the B777-200 so they would order B777-300ER). They don't need those seats.

LAX Cool place to use an A330

[danielc365]

I love airbus planes way better than boeing

[seaboo143]

they should have used their a330's for transpacific routes. not US. as the a330's are more fuel efficient and more economical for long haul rather than their 767's.

[flight755]

Recently flew an HA A330 on the LAX-HNL run....awesome aircraft! I will NEVER fly any other airline to Hawaii! If I can't fly Hawaiian Airlines.....I'll swim!

But I do miss the DC-10.....

[VOLXOM1]

I LOVE HAWAII ; )

[slcldsprovo]

Kaulana Wale Oe Kauai".

same as Nani Wai`ale`ale

[TheCannonofMohammed]

A-330's are nice airplanes. Hawaiian Airlines made a good decision.

[ALEXG12796]

Any A330's coming to Sacramento??

[43fatfax]

787 is the future, believe me...Hawaiian Air is F-in themselves in the (blank blank)

[venichen1]

@43fatfax Yes, like they can get the 787 now.

[UnorganizedMedia]

Great that the 330 is joining the fleet! will this be a replacement as opposed to the 787?

[HTTYDLover]

thats the airplane im going on

[mrfofboy]

Could anybody please tell me?; Are Hawaiian's 767's to be phased out or are the A330's additional planes to the fleet?

[HawaiianAirlines]

@mrfofboy Our Airbus A330 planes are being added to our fleet so we can further our commitment to provide the highest quality in our markets.

[McDoniel]

@HawaiianAirlines my step dad works for u guys, u guys rock!!!

[sideslide23]

@mrfofboy the 767 will still be there but the A330 are lot bigger than the 767, they'll be using the Airbus at bigger airport like the flight out of LAX San Fransisco, and other big airports, we still get Boeing 767 300 flying into Phoenix Sky harbor airport in Arizona.

[Boy4321100]

@mrfofboy I heard that eventually the 767 will be replaced by the A330 in the future. but i think for now they'll keep both aircraft.

[HawaiianAviator]

Ahh this video puts a smile on my face every time I watch it. It reminds me of the "Aloha Spirit". You guys are mos def filling in Aloha's shoes! I see the service has improved tenfold!

[miamad]

A really uncomfortable plane (and unsafe, I might add). Alaska Airlines flies an ALL Boeing fleet, anD has amazing service to Hawaii. I agree with everybody here... if it ain't Boeing I'm not going!

[seattlehawkins]

@miamad Cant agee with you more! Everytime i fly to hawaii (annually) its on a 767! mahalo!

[jwh30385]

@miamad Actually, the A330 has had one fatal event out of 3.7 million flights, vs the 767 at six fatal events out of 15.4 million flights, giving the A330 a crash rate of 0.27 and the 767 a crash rate of 0.36.. So I'm not really sure what you mean by "unsafe".. The A330 has a lower crash rate than the 727, 737, 747 and 767, and about equal to the 757.

Of wide body aircraft, the A330 ranks 3rd in safety statistics, only after the A340 and Boeing 777.

@jwh30385 well said

[DansJets]

What a great airline, a fantastic high tech beauty flying the Pacific. Congratulations to Hawaiian, will look forward to seeing this beauty at Las Vegas.

[HawaiianAirlines]

The Serenaders sang a song called "Kaulana Wale Oe Kauai". We hope you enjoyed the video!

[MrFirepower100]

What was the song called?

[HawaiianAirlines]

The band which did an excellent job was the Hawaiian Airlines Serenaders.

[MrFirepower100]

That looks good! Who was the band that was singing?
