I'm curious if and when they got their replacement aircraft. Back when I was in college and flying on the cheap (OK I still fly cheap, but cheaper then), I had an ATA flight from HNL to SFO that when I checked in was still in SFO awaiting a part to be flown in. They have so few planes that when one of theirs fails and needs repair it can be many, many hours until it's fixed or a replacement is available and they will not put you on another carrier nor do they tend to have other flights. My flight finally left 10 hours late. After that, I never flew charters.
