Not surprising at all...this is what the airline industry wanted. The real question is whether the flights will remain full. If not then they may end up losing more money on the empty seats than they are making on the full ones. Plus all the hotels, restaurants, tour operators and everyone else will suffer. Because of its isolation and the fact that so many seats were lost Hawaii will be a good microcosm for analysis as to whether the reduced capacity and higher fares can save the airline industry without ruining everything else. Of course, Japanese tourism might pick pu rendering it only an issue for Americans who want to vacation there.
