There's no way United is going to bring back any service of

The "cruise ships second half of 2021" was from a paper by state economists on the effects on the economy if no ships (and a gazillion other assumptions). It was not an official government policy that there won't be any cruise ships until late 2021.

Far, far, far more people go to Hawaii by plane...about 35k per day prior to Covid.
