I need help with my decision.
I have been lurking and reading everything I can find on the interisland air situation and I would like to hear your thoughts on my situation. Four of us will be flying into hnl on 6/3/07 for our yearly trip to Kona. We are currently booked on DL 511 arriving hnl at 1:18. The Ha website shows no availability untill something like 6:00pm. I can book on Aloha or go. While I like saving money as well as the next person, Go's situation has me concerned. I saw Flyi fizzle and disappear almost overnight from my local airport, and I wonder if Go will even exist in June. Please weigh in with your thoughts, should I wait and see what happens, take a chance and book with GO, take the safer route and book with aloha, or some other course of action. Thanks

What's up with HNL-KOA Sun. June 3rd? Busy that day in the skies inter-island! Did they know you were coming? 
Why don't you wait and see what happens.

Hawaiian Rev. Mgt. may be holding back seats for your date of travel. If HA is your preferred carrier of choice, I don't think it can hurt you to wait a few months. June is still far out from today.
Unless you know of something that's happening in KOA that weekend (e.g., Ironman, though that doesn't happen in June), I'd say it's safe to wait.
