The air war was top of the news on Channel 2 KHON tonight. It's at a point where the Hawaii Tourism Authority is concerned about the long term effects of the battle:
“Unprofitable airlines will cut back on service or ultimately could go out of business, which ultimately would not be good for the service of this state,” says Frank Haas, the Vice President of Marketing for Hawaii’s Tourism Authority....
And while the air fare war may not benefit the "local" airlines in the long run, the public definitely benefits as there are all kinds of price options to choose from in the current climate.
The report ended on a note that prices may rise next year.
So as I have said several times in these threads, "enjoy the ride" because we can never tell when prices shoot up to $100 each way between Lihue - HNL -Kahului - Kona - Hilo....
