Hawaiian Airlines to Launch Daily Flights Between Los Angeles and Maui

Hawaiian Airlines has confirmed it will launch a daily year-round service between Los Angeles and Maui this summer.

More than 120,000 air seats will be added to both Los Angeles and Maui's travel markets when the new non-stop service launches on 1 July 2014.

The new daily service also capitalizes on convenient connections to Hawaii from other cities on the U.S. mainland through Hawaiian Airlines' growing network with airline partners.

In addition, Hawaiian Airlines' Maui hub, which was established in 2012, offers an alternative connecting point for travel to other islands with its expanded neighbor island flight schedule.

"The island of Maui continues to grow as a popular visitor destination and also serves as an ideal transit point for neighbor island and U.S. Mainland travel," said Peter Ingram, Hawaiian Airlines executive vice president and chief commercial officer. "We've seen tremendous demand from both Southern California travelers and our kama'aina (residents), and we're very pleased to offer this new daily non-stop service for them."

The new daily service will be operated by Hawaiian Airlines' wide-body, twin-aisle Airbus 330-200 aircraft, which seats 294 passengers with 18 in First Class and 276 in the Main Cabin.
