In DEN?
leaving DEN on Saturday for BKK, I was astounded to see a Hawaiian Airlines jet parked on the tarmac (over near the de-icing machines, that was truly a strange combo) and I was trying to figure out why it was at DEN - I couldn't believe that Hawaiian was contemplating adding DEN to its route structure, then I saw the Oakland RAiders logo on the side of the plane and understood.
Raiders play the Broncos on Saturday. I had no idea that Hawaiian air was the Raider airline. That too seem like an odd combo.

Hawaiian Airlines News Release
9/6/05
Raiders Go For Six On Hawaiian
HONOLULU The NFL regular season kicks off this week and the Oakland Raiders are flying Hawaiian-style whenever they take to the road.
Hawaiian Airlines, that is. For the sixth straight year, Hawaii's biggest and longest-serving carrier will be the Oakland Raiders' airline of choice whenever The Team of the Decades travels to an away game.
Using its wide-body, twin-aisle Boeing 767-300ER aircraft, Hawaiian is providing chartered nonstop service for Oakland's players, coaches, trainers, and team officials.
To keep the players nourished and comfortable while traveling, Hawaiian's Silver and Black in-flight service will feature extra-large, hearty meals along with fresh fruit, candy baskets and any special requests. Up to three first-run movies will be shown on flights.
Raiders executive Marc Badain commented, Hawaiian Airlines continues to demonstrate a true 'Commitment to Excellence.' Our players, coaches and staff look forward to a sixth consecutive season of first-class service.
Starting with this week's opener against the New England Patriots, Hawaiian is flying the Raiders to eight cities for road games during the season: Providence, Philadelphia, Nashville, Kansas City, Washington, D.C., San Diego, Newark, and Denver.
Should Oakland qualify for post-season play, Hawaiian will have first option to fly the team to any road playoff game including Super Bowl XL in Detroit.
