Allegiant Air MD-80s – back in the air after fixing the emergency slides (well checking them)



Hawaiian Airlines uses gate D35 and they seem to board really early. N382HA here at the gate after arriving from HNL a few hours ago…




Gate D35


Boarding began at 8:22am and since door 2 was used, the boarding process went a bit smoother. The plane was almost 100% full.



First Class cabin was filled shortly after I took my seat. For pre-takeoff beverages on both flights, the choices include Guava Juice, sparkling wine, or a Guava mimosa, which was my choice today. It was served in a REAL glass.



Menu was then passed out but please note that there was no choice of entrée. If you have dietary requirement, you need to book your special meals. It is also different from the one being put on line too.


Door was closed early at 8:57am and traffic was not too horrible this morning.
