Hawaiian Airlines: a positive cargo outlook as inter-island ops start

Hawaiian Airlines has recently marked a milestone, launching dedicated freighter service in the inter-island market with turboprop aircraft. Although the operation is small, and likely won't drastically alter the company's inter-island cargo market share, it is a unique opportunity for Hawaiian to bolster its cargo revenue. It is also a line of business that Hawaiian aims to grow, now that the operation is up and running.

The company's expansion into the inter-island cargo market occurs as Hawaiian's outlook for its long haul cargo remains solid, driven by high yields on inbound US goods.
