Wow, a new convolution.....

maybe republic will put in a bid to purchase the aloha name.republic did hire a lot of former aloha fas to work in hnl as did mokulele hire them to do the ground handling.

Mokulele, former Go Express, hires RAH to do its mainline interisland work as Mokulele airlines after Aloha is defunct only to have the contractors bid for the Aloha name and do what, hire their original shell company, Mokulele, to do the Aloha express work? I think my head would explode trying to understand this interisland business.
Luv
 
Truth is, Mesa is probably relieved. Economy is much different now in the islands, even the interisland market. Just ask Mokulele Air.
Yucaipa was the real winner on the deal before. Actually, Mesa was allowing former Aloha employees free travel if the deal went through. If Hawaiian gets the name now for $1million, are they going to take care of former Aloha employees?
Everybody is so quick to hate Mesa, that you fail to see that this might be what they dreamed of......


Are you friggin stoned?
 
This ruling is no big deal for Mesa. I don't think Mesa using the Aloha name is a great idea...however...people have short memories. Regardless, Mesa still settled the Aloha suit for 2 Mil....prety good deal....dont ya think.

People will remember Mesa spending money it does not have for a name that is not theirs for a loooong time..........
 
Well, right now 65-70% load factors are not bad, and future bookings are up over last year...sooooooooooo..........


65% loads on a 50 seat jet on a 20 min flight is bad. It takes them 3 flights to OGG to carry what HAL does with one 717.
In addition, there is a stigma with the Go name in Hawaii that will never go away. Of course some people will fly them, but most of the people in Hawaii see Go as a very third rate airline that they avoid at all costs.
