Additional direct DEN-KOA

This may be old news but I couldn’t find it with the search. When did United add a second daily direct Denver Kona flight? Very convenient for me; one 777 and another 757. Is this likely to stick for a while or is it a short term seasonal change?

A little more information and the mystery deepens: it appears this is a one day only situation. For some reason, on Saturday, February 21 United added a second direct Denver to Kona and return Kona to Denver. It doesn’t exist the day before, the day after or the following Saturday.

Something going on in KOA that week? Date aligns with the upgauge to a 787-9 on SFO - KOA (almost aligns!) 787-9 from SFO to KOA on Feb 22nd

There a bunch of dates where this happens - it's because a lot of people go to Hawaii during this time!
