AAdvantage offers members an 8-day Intraisland Pass for 15000 miles. This will be discontinued in August and I wanted to redeem one for myself and my wife. How is Hawaiian Airlines for flying between islands? It sounds like a good deal but I just want to make sure that there are only twin prop planes offering flights once a day for example.

Mahalo!

Basically you have two inter-island choices......Hawaiian and Aloha. The former flies mainly old DC-9-50's and the latter flies old B737-200's. Flights to some of the smaller airports (Molokai, Kapalua etc) are via turbo-props. HA also has two brand new nice B717's in service and will have all its DC-9-50's replaced by the nice B717's by Oct 2001. Aloha has NO ANNOUNCED PLANS for replacement. Most flights are 25 min or less. Safety records and on-time stats are excellent for both airlines.

I have flown both many times and prefer Hawaiian. Others prefer Aloha. Happy flying and enjoy the islands.!

Those interisland flights are too short to notice much difference btwn two. As with MisterNice I prefer Hawaiian. I'm sure UA flyers prefer Aloha...
