go! Interisland

For our New Year's trip to the Big Island, our family flew go! (a subsidiary of Mesa Air Group of Phoenix, Ariz.), which operates four Bombardier CRJ-200ER jets for its interisland service. With ticket prices as low as $19, go! has been aggressively battling Hawaii's two incumbent, locally-grown carriers, Hawaiian Airlines and Aloha Airlines. All five of us traveled for what it would've cost for just two of us three years ago. The jets are smaller and the frills non-existent (they charge you for juice), but they get you there, and that's what matters. Our kids, especially, loved boarding from the tarmac. Music is "LostCode" from Plethora by MRDC (Magnatune).

I didn't care either way, honestly, when go! first arrived. But the stupidity and obnoxiousness of the anti-go! hoards have actually made me a fan. I don't fly go! because I like them, but because its competitors are an embarrassment.

@Sofang120 I hope you don't, go! is a cut price, cut service, cut quality, piece of shit airline run by the worst CEO (in all aspects, including caring for his employees) in the airline industry.

I used to work for go! air, starting back at 2006. The airline got off on a rough start, no one wanted to give the airline a try which, is why the media made a bad image about it. Now 2009 the media and the public still giving the airline a hard time to prosper which, is why I quit go! air as a customer agent and have left Hawaii because the island and its inhabitants are the ones with no "Aloha" I will never visit Hawaii forever.

C'mon people, go! came into the Hawaii Market for the sole purpose to boot somebody out!Judgement Settled In Hawaii Courtroom! Mesa Must Pay Out $83 Million Bucks To Hawaiian For Their Smear Tactic! Round 2 will be for Aloha Airlines Took Kick Butt in the Courts too! FAIR is FAIR!!! Also, no airline in Hawaii could ever be competitive with $9 Dollar Fairs...C'mon People! Gas Alone is Killing the Kamaaina People In Hawaii! $9 Dollar Fair? You Do The Math!!!

Sheeeeeeeeeeesh!!!

Your right, if it WERENT FOR GO!, THEN AIRFARE WOULD STILL HAVE BEEN SKY_HIGH!!!

I dont understand why people are so pissed because there is some competition in town. If people want to fly Hawaiian and Aloha, the them.. it's the same as SouthWORST Airlines. Ya, they might such, but they're not going anywhere.. Does it make a difference on a 30 minute flight anyway? I can see flights to the mainland, but 30 minutes.. crazy. go! can't be that bad.
