Well, I just spoke to my Mom, who is a very usually reliable source of information.....She was at the Miramar airshow last week and heard two hotdog vendors, dressed in flight suits, stating that it is official through them, that SWA is going to HNL.

She then heard the Cotton Candy guy telling them....her two usually reliable sources that SWA would be recieving some 757 for the HNL run.

Chase can you confirm this........

While hot dog vendors usually are correct, I think we should get confirmation from that guy at the circus, THEN I will believe it.
 
Don't discount hot dog vender information. They are the most reliable and can't be taken for granted.

I heard from one just the other day and he said that SWA would soon be going to Perth, Australia.

I would have believed it if it came from corn dog vendors instead!

From one Hot Dog to another...

I happen to be a Hot Dog vender in my "time off" from flying, and find your banter about the honorable profession of Hot Dog vender (aka "Weiner Engineer") very offensive. Please stop, you are hurting my feelings. Ha Ha. You know, maybe I should get thicker skin like the ones on the "quality" dogs I sell.

Please forgive me, I didn't mean to offend your Weiner career. Hahaha,
Still waiting on confirmation from the Cotton Candy dude.

Hot Dog Info

Information from hotdog vendors is highly confidential. If you repeat the information they may have to kill you.
 
The hot-dog vendor's wife is a CIA operative. The hot-dog vendor has now changed his story and believes that Spirit will start up the HNL service. He has now taken a senior management position with Spirit. He also helped us recruit the organ grinder and his monkey. The monkey was immediately promoted to reserve Captain.

cheers,

Monkey??

Did someone say monkey?

:eek:

Oh, and in keeping with the general spirit of the FlightInfo board I will now launch into an excessive and ostentatious diatribe about what you refer to as an "organ grinder." (not sure I like the sound of that) The musical instrument is actually known as a "hurdy gurdy." However, other definitions include: street organ, barrel organ, (and my favorites) hand organ, or grind organ!! Hurdy gurdys were once often employed by street panhandlers along with a little monkey wearing what resembles a pilot's uniform. Said street panhandler would "turn his crank" while the monkey in the pilot suit would leap around with a cup hoping to collect alms. Any questions about some of these words... look 'em up! So there!!! :D

HNL or bust?

Hey Everyone
Still waiting to hear back from my Mom, she has another usually reliable source in Church that might shed some light on the matter.
And, if she can't find out maybe someone in SWA PD might help us, I heard they are always checking in on this site, cheers have a great weekend, EFC.

I don't know, still thinking Mom is right, but she is known to snack...Maybe she did visit the Corndog shack and didn't tell us!
 
Conspriacy theory

EFC-in-5,

It is quite obvious (to anyone paying attention), that your mother is involved in some sort of misinformation campaign not doubt involving the CIA, Oscar Myer's, and one Herb Kelleher! Think outside the box people!

No no guys, the way to tell that this is reliable info is the key words. Not that they were hotdog vendors but, " hotdog vendors, dressed in flight suits". See its the "uniformed hotdog vendor" that knows all about the industry. I can't believe you guys didn't know that, its flying 101. These uniformed hotdog vendors also provide interview advise for JetBlue and Fedex hopefulls.

You bet, that would be the new 737-955-300x stretched 737 (longer than a 747) for longer flights.
 
I heard the same info from a carnie at the carnival. He said that he had talked to a one eyed man in east in Burbank about SWA going to HOU. He too heard from a corndog vender outside of Chicago, from his brother’s sister’s hairdresser’s uncle’s aunt who had a relative sometime ago who had a friend on the inside at SWA. If anyone can confirm this let me know.
 
Help Us!!

I really was hoping that Chase or MLBwingborn could help us with the information and confirm this for us. Unless, maybe they are already out on the new proving runs to HNL. If so, bring plenty of peanuts and suntan lotion, cheers.
 
Uh...the hot dog vendor I talked to down at Ellington last weekend told me that SWA is just going to go ahead and buying Aloha...makes sense...
 
I just talked to the "uniformed hotdog vendor" outside the local porn shop. That shemale told me SWA will announce CH11 on Monday because they lost so much on the HNL runs. Herb will show up on Tue to get concessions from the pilot group. She also included that her husbond in PHX, who is also her sister, saw SWA management and JO having lunch. Part of the SWA pilot concessions will include a J4J deal so Mesa can provide 767 service to SWA and the mainline LUV guys will feed the 767's with the current fleet of 737's.

Just some facts from the porn shop hotdog vendor.

Aloha uses 737-700's for this route and I believe SWA did the original proving runs for them-don't know how that happened-but I read it somewhere so it has to be true.

who told you WN flew our proving runs? i have it on pretty decent authority that is absolutely not the case.

if WN does decide to come out to the islands, it will be a major undertaking for them (and a huge headache for us!)
 
i wish...

i wish i had a pic to prove it...scary proposition though. the only good thing i can see would be the influx of those southwest fa's sunning in waikiki...don't believe me? hang out by B-20 at phx sky harbor. wow!
 
Hello Everyone....

Keep up the great comments, have enjoyed reading them while stuck here in the house due to the San Diego Fires. And if anyone else lives out here, I hope you and your family is SAFE.

Still waiting to here from the PD if HNL is in the future for us, should we get use to Sand in our pants, hahahahaha, cheers to all.
 
hot dog vendors don't know jack

Here in the South it is the funnel cake vendor (uniformed or not) that we use as the A#1 source of information.

Although I find it difficult to think you would insult anyone intentionally since you're always the gentleman, did you actually say that pilots wear monkey suits? W.S.:p
 
No HNL.....PHL

Well I just heard...... No HNL run for now, its off to PHL. The rumor wan't too far off there was an H and an L in the city, hahaha.

Ok so pack away the suntan lotion and get out all the Rocky movies where off to PHL, YO YO Paulie
