Hawaiian vs Aloha Airlines
Is there any real difference in service or on-time ratings between these two airlines? For some reason, I thought I heard that Aloha is considered the better of the two but am not sure.
Hawaiian is a $69 each way (Aloha is $66) and I would earn a few Continental miles. But's it not that important.
Thanks for your help.

I would pick the one that you can get with FF miles. I happend to get Hawaiian (I think) with 5,000 AA miles. Since I donnot us AA that much I had about 12,00o miles out there I wasn't going to use.
Just save about $300 on 2 round trip tickets. That's $300 for 10,000 miles, not a bad deal. I mean the fights are what, 45 minutes? Don't think either one woul dbe bad.
Either way,

Thanks to everyone for the replies. I'm only using them for interisland flights so I would only get 1500 miles or so (3 segments). Aloha is cheaper a little cheaper and they have non-stop flights from LIH to OGG where Hawaiian does not. I could use both airlines to maximize miles (I use Continental) but I don't think it's worth the trouble.
Thanks again for you help.

My husband and I fly both frequently, and choose based upon the availability of seats for inter-island flights. In past years (till about 5 years ago) Hawaiian was always late, but not any more. There is very little difference these days in service or on time record. For mainland flights..I choose based on the destination airport and price. Again, very little difference.

I have flown interisland literally hundreds of times, usually at least once a week.
Hawaiian's planes are newer, they have 2-3 seating. They also have a reputaion for runnning behind schedule.
We almost always fly Aloha because, as frequent flyers, we never have to wait in line and we get upgraded to first class. The planes have 3-3 seating and the fleet is aging. We especially like the daily nonstop to/from LIH-OGG, big time saver when traveling on business.
