Hawaiian Airlines Reports August Traffic Statistics
HONOLULU, Sept. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hawaiian Airlines, Inc., a
subsidiary of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: HA), today announced its
systemwide traffic statistics for August and year-to-date.
The increase in passenger numbers year-over-year is mainly the result of
Hawaiian's expansion of interisland operations, while the lower average load
factor reflects adjustment of capacity between markets and a lower
transpacific load factor as Hawaiian has raised fares in an effort to offset
the increased price of fuel.
