Ohana by Hawaiian


Ohana by Hawaiian is a regional subsidiary carrier of Hawaiian Airlines. The service is operated using four ATR 42 turboprop airplanes owned by Hawaiian and operated under contract by Empire Airlines. The new service was slated to begin in summer 2013 initially flying to Moloka'i and Lana'i, however the airline was unable to begin during that period due to Federal Aviation Administration delays in certifying Ohana's operation. Ohana by Hawaiian is fully integrated into the Hawaiian Airlines network.
