Don't ever fly go! airlines they are part of the Mesa air group in Phoenix. go! airlines flies interisland in Hawaii. They fly small jets that carry approximately 50 passengers. Every single day on all islands they cancel flights, if they don't fill the seats on one flight they will cancel it and then overbook the next flight and so on. I have seen passengers waiting 7 hours to get on a flight or to make a mainland connection. They are the ones who got Aloha Airlines out of business with their cheap ass fares and once they got passengers to fly them they hiked up their fares as much as $140 one way for a 20 minute flight. Their planes are falling apart, and several years back their pilots fell asleep and past the Big Island. And get this they landed on Kauai the pilot was off duty and the replacement pilot never showed up for the flight. I noticed that they only have 3 flight attendants. DO NOT FLY go! airlines LET'S WORK TOGETHER TO GET THEM OUT OF BUSINESS. SOUTHWEST OR ALASKA AIRLINES START FLYING INTERISLAND FLIGHTS.

I've flown Go! inter-island many times. Nothing special but then again HA (Hawaiian) isn't either - its a long swim....
So you are advocating Go! leaves the islands and you think AS (Alaska), or WN (Southwest) will suddenly appear. Ummm, what if they don't? Your $140 fare will be more than cheap as HA will be the only one flying the islands. All US airlines can fly the islands but they don't... its not profitable. I'm suggesting Go! whether you like them or not is keeping prices reasonable.
$140 for a 20 minute flight is expensive? (bit of a stretch because you can buy with a even a couple days in advance for $50) Aircraft, crew of 3, airport fees, fuel... this is dirt cheap... your alternative is???
