HAL Dispatchers

[dispatchguy]

Just received word that Hawaiian Airlines is looking for 3 dispatchers.

1 interisland and 2 ETOPS dispatchers.

They have a online application at http://www.hawaiianair.com

Good luck; Mahalo!

I'll probably apply.
Does anybody have an idea of the pay scale?

 

[dispatchguy]

That I do not have. There was some partial information posted at WDFF, but not their scale.

However, they are TWU Local 540, so if you are a union DX you might be able to get their details...

BCP7 - In the posting I saw, there was an email address to which you could send a resume, I'll PM you that email, since if I am not mistaken, you've already done some time out at PGUM...

Thank you, pm received.
Yes - PGUM was a good gig, though I left there to start Cargo 360, which was also pretty good though short-lived.

I think starting is at $45000.00 but you have to factor in the Cost of living.

starting pay as an assistant is around $38K. If you have no obligations (e.g. mortgage) like I do, it would likely be an attractive offer. Can't think of a better place to live (except for the additional cost) than HI. Was told by their Dispatch Administrator that the Interisland position is likely filled and they are looking for the 2 ETOPs positions. Wish I could go there, but the offer from SWA sounded better and more realistic since I can better manage my property in ATL from DAL as opposed to HNL.

Here is the direct link to the Assistant Dispatcher posting for HAL if anyone is interested.

For the record, when I spoke with their Assistant Manager, he told me starting pay was $2500/per month for the first 3-4 months until qualified, then you went to 38K per year, with raises every 6 months until you were on the 2nd year salary.

Hard to live on that $2500/month unless you already live there or are young enough to not have any significant bills yet.

I would have thought the ex-Aloha guys would have been all over this, too.
