    1. Hi Rick,

      I’d say that Southwest’s performance is indicative of the way that they run their airline.

      However Hawaiian is not. Rather, their performance is primarily based on the vast majority of their flights being unaffected by weather, of 100 mile duration, and so close to their (HNL) hub.

      Aloha, http://beatofhawaii.com
