You’re right about the E75s not having the range for Hawaii. On top of that, PAE is currently a Horizon-only station, so it wouldn’t just be a matter of choosing to fly an appropriate plane, they’d have to start up mainline ops there.

They could do that, but I haven’t heard any rumblings or rumors that it might happen.

I’ve flown HNL-PDX-PAE a couple of times. Love the little airport and being able to avoid driving through downtown Seattle to get to it.
