That's why Hawaiian just ended the flights to Manila few years ago because they couldn't even compete with Philippine Airlines

Clark Vincent Ga-as ....the flights were cancelled because there is too much corruption at the airport ( MNL)... Our flights were always full but barely breaking even... Imagine getting"special" handling charges regarding catering or fuel. We make more money flying to Japan anyway... Who needs to go to a third world country anyway

Alaska is also generally more affordable if you book at a decent time, I am a born and raised Alaska and have flown on both airlines, The food was bland, the flight attendants were great but I would rather pay 9.00 usd for cheese, 7 crackers and grapes, then eat tasteless and sit in a cabin that is always in a uncomfortable tempature for a more expensive ticket

Blankets were free on this flight for me and I flew regular. Don’t know what you’re talking about

I have no idea what you are talking about (especially what "I flew regular" exactly means in airline class and routing), but I can only logically assume that you flew on a foreign route to be given the free blanket. My information came from a colleague who flew from the west coast to Hawaii with his family, and needed to purchase blankets because the temperature on the plane was so very cold. However, I did some research again, and could NOT find any information on Hawaiian's website concerning the availability of free blankets on the Hawaii to mainland USA domestic routings, or for that matter, if there were charges for blankets. But, I didn't stop there and checked the Skytrax airline reviews listing for Hawaiian Airlines. There are multiple complaints from economy passengers on the Hawaii to mainland routes about the cabin being so cold, and having to pay $10 per blanket (most recent one being April 30, 2019). Also, there were even more complaints from economy passengers about the low quality of the food on both foreign and domestic US mainland routes (most recent being September 1, 2019). (Note, there are many complaints regarding other issues with Hawaiian.) However, worst of all was a March 2017 report from the Los Angeles Times about a 66 year old passenger on one of Hawaiian's Las Vegas to Honolulu flights. After take-off from McCarran International Airport the male passenger complained that the cabin temperature was extremely cold. After asking for a blanket, he was told that it would cost $12. "The man became upset and said he shouldn't have to pay because it was so cold." The passenger asked to speak to the airline's corporate office, and the flight crew provided the phone number where an in-flight call was made. While talking to a company representative, the passenger allegedly said, "I would like to take someone behind the woodshed for this." As a result of that statement, the plane landed at LAX. According to an officer for the Los Angeles Police Department (name of officer withheld here, but is visible in the LA Times article) which handles LAX, the passenger was NOT arrested, NOR charged with any sort of violation, NOR was there any further investigation. It's important to note that LAPD viewed the matter as a complaint about the charge for the blanket (given the cold temperature of the plane), while the airline flight crew provided him with the corporate phone number to report his complaint. As to the passenger's statement about taking somebody behind the woodshed" for the $12 charge, the LAPD officer appeared astonished that "they diverted the aircraft because of that statement". News commentary about this incident was summed up best in the following statement, it was "the most ridiculous reason for a flight diversion". It may be that Hawaiian very recently changed their "blanket policy" on domestic Hawaii to mainland US routes. If not, consider yourself lucky that you received a free blanket. Otherwise, I stand by my original comments. Even more so, based on the passenger reviews in Skytrax, I double-down on my opinion that Hawaiian is NOT a world class airline and one that should be avoided when there are other higher quality air carriers.

2025 is quite late, Guam to NYC will be sooner than that for sure 👍

I don’t think there’s enough demand for that

When it comes to former US territories, Manila to NYC route already exists!

With $2000 average round trip from west coast to AB Won Pat airport won’t be anytime soon. In fact you could save a $1000 by buying RT Tokyo and RT Tokyo-Guam

i think united do a flight to guam from the west coast. not 100% sure. if anyone did a newark-guam flight it would be united since they have a lot of flights from there because of former air micronesia. can't really see an east coast to guam flight though. not enough demand.

Agreed. Food service for a ten hour flight just not good enough.

Are they really the last airline to serve hotmeals on a domestic route?

vishal vivek oops, didn’t say specifically, I meant the last in the US.

Delta serves hot meals to Hawaii from the east coast and on transcon flights

J Deltaspotter only on select flights, it’s not consistent. Hawaiian is consistent.

Delta has a full meal service on flights to Hawaii from MSP, ATL and I believe SLC.

so true ,

that's weird

Why? Most times it’s a sign of quality, and it they are a nice souvenir

Thai airways and Finnair have really beautiful boarding passes. Thai airways (especially if you check in at Bangkok) have a very beautiful background on their boarding passes.

right? This rating system is a little bit confusing to me sometimes

traffictraffic It was just an error on David’s part. If they didn’t expect something and it ended up not being given then that would be an “expectation met”.

TXnine7nine oh okay

@@traffictraffic wasn`t it so that some of the people writing comments expected it? So the expectations of the viewers weren`t met

Honestly it's extremely rare for any airline to give amenity kits on anything less than their business class; I thought that was an unrealistic expectation from the beginning.

except on redeye flights from Hawaii to the west coast.

No, they do. I always with them to San Diego, Seattle and LAX and they dooooo serve hot meals.

Not true anymore, Delta started serving meals again in coach on their transcons; I believe they've always served meals between ATL and HNL as well. And yes, sometimes Hawaiian doesn't serve on redeye from Hawaii to the west coast - I've been on one without, and it was rather disappointing. - Red

Well that's good

@@LBJackson4 I got one on SFO to OGG

Unfortunately for them, *Southwest* has been gobbling up their passengers massively because of their significantly cheaper fares...

@@odeiraoloap not really SW flies only to secondary markets currently with OAK prolly the most frequent west coast destination and those 737s can only go so far

@@GregDalin Southwest actually does fly to Hawaii now. They just can't fly, say from Dallas to Hawaii non-stop. However, they can fly non-stop from the west coast to Hawaii now. I don't think a lot of flights are to Hawaii, but they do fly there now and can be cheaper than Hawaiian Airlines in some ways.

ScallywagBeowulf I know I am from Hawaii.....

Yeah because kids have a hard time understanding that Hawaii is part of the US!

@HC K lol

Vladivostok to Kaliningrad, still Russia

Good idea

you shouldnt expect much from united imo

Yes. Because your going against the rotation of the earth. For example. My local airport shannon in ireland has flights to boston. The outbound is 6 hours. But the return is often under 5 hours.

@@oliverjumelle Specifically, you're going against the jet stream on west bound flights which is why westbound flights are longer then eastbound flights. The actual rotation of the earth doesn't have anything to do with it--it's purely due to stronger headwinds going westbound from the jet stream.

GalaxyMaster I was thinking the same. Hawaiian flight 89 is actually the longest domestic flight in the US.

__e __ Sochi Airport also has a little "park" inside of its new terminal

OMG THX SIMPLY AVIATION

why? no their not , Hawaiian needs a fleet upgrade,,..

I didn’t mean in the business sector I was thinking more in overall airlines and their products

JetBlue and Hawaiian are sky partners.

@@briancebu7209 Hawaiian's fleet isn't really that old. Their A330s aren't even ten years old and their A321neos aren't even two years old. Their oldest fleet is their 717s that they fly on interisland routes. They'll also start taking delivery of their 787-9 in 2021 (they ordered 10 with an option for 10 more)

@@LBJackson4 why do you think Hawaiian is a good airline?

Which Airline 🤷🏻‍♂️

Delta, were a proud delta hub here at MSP 😎

RedJive 605 Delta A350 actually surprised me with good services, I would choose Delta over KLM.

Milly I agree, I’d choose delta over KLM any day

RedJive 605, yes we love Delta at MSP! They are such a great airline! And I can’t wait for the A350 to begin service next year! We even just got the A220, of course from the one and only, Delta! 😄

His was on his mobile

Jack Summers They are a larger airline that one may think. I believe their fleet is larger than Virgin Atlantic.

Jack Summers New York is on the east coast

robert mccoy yep

They fly out of Austin Texas for 8 hours

They don't provide hot meals on redeye flights from Hawaii to the west coast.

They took off from the reef runway 8R so you can't see Pearl Harbor on takeoff....only when landing.

I WANT to see the flight experience start to finish; ease of traversing the airport, lines, the plane - not what I may or may NOT see taking off.

BULLSHIT! HA charges massive fees for every in-flight luxury that exists! I've been to HI 13 times and I've flown on that miserable carrier A LOT more times than you have.

Actually, compared to foreign carriers serving Hawaii, they're not very good. However Hawaiian does compare favourably to other US carriers, which isn't saying much.

@@avesraggiana Hawaii has been my favorite economy service in the US, nice leg room, nice service, hot food, etc.

*Correction: best KZfaq channel for airline trip-reports

YES!! I'm dreading my up coming flight on United. I just keep reminding myself I'll be in Hawaii when it lands.

azim iskandar does is matter though? By the time they've uploaded, the passes would have already expired. Also their last names aren't exactly a secret if you're a long time follower.

It's just a name that probably everyone knows anyway.

US domestic flights are barebones when it comes to service and amenities, even on first class.

Bob Rogers don't expect good things on domestic flights

every meal is for purchase on United when you do the HNL-Newark, NJ flight, which is probably 30-45 mins shorter than this flight.....United also sells Basic Economy fares on this route, which means you can not select your own seat or bring a rollerboard into the cabin. Kinda puts things into perspective, doesn't it?

I expect a lot of screaming kids running up and down the aisle with parents not giving a care because they only paid £5 for the flight, blood supply cut off to my feet due to no legroom, a guy who’s drunk too much at the bar before boarding and is kicking off at the cabin crew, and a landing so hard the seat collapses

now that would be good,come on david we love your vid's make our day and why not fly 2/3 flights around europe in the same day

I would rather swim.

Hawaiian airlines is trying to start direct flights from Honolulu to London next year on their new Boeing 787-9s
