history

Hawaiian Airlines Douglas DC-3

Hawaiian Airlines was founded on January 30, 1929 under the name Inter-Island-Airways and began flight operations on the islands in November of the same year with two Sikorsky S-38s and, from 1935, also S-43s . In 1941 it was renamed Hawaiian Airlines. In the same year the old Sikorskys were retired and replaced by new Douglas DC-3s . This aircraft was the airline's "workhorse" for more than twenty years and was not replaced by the jet-powered Douglas DC-9 until 1966 .

In the 1980s, the destinations were expanded - with three Douglas DC-8 airports in Pago Pago , American Samoa and Tonga were served from 1984 . A short time later, five Lockheed L-1011 TriStar were purchased, with which daily flights to the American west coast were established. Over time this connection was further expanded; connections to Tahiti and Rarotonga have also been added. In 1993 Hawaiian Airlines replaced their L-1011 TriStar with a McDonnell Douglas DC-10 .

In 2001, the company began extensive fleet modernization: Between 2001 and 2003, it bought 13 new Boeing 717-200s for island traffic and 14 new Boeing 767-300ERs for long-haul routes. The new types of aircraft replaced the outdated DC-9 and DC-10. In May 2006 it was announced that with the purchase of four more 767-300s the traffic between Hawaii and the American mainland would be further expanded.

In May 2010, as part of a further fleet expansion, the company received its first new of a total of 16 Airbus A330-200s , which replaced some of the 767s.

It is the eleventh largest US airline and has topped the list of America's most punctual airlines since November 2003.

On July 23, 2014, Hawaiian Airlines ordered six A330-800neo from Airbus ; these were to replace an existing order for six A350-800s . In March 2018, Hawaiian announced that it would order Boeing 787-9s , which will replace the existing Airbus A330-200s .
