Hawaiian Airlines will retire its Boeing 767 fleet earlier than expected
Hawaiian Airlines’ Boeing 767 fleet will retire by the beginning of next year, about a quarter earlier than originally expected. This early retirement is due to the airline’s decision to suspend its Beijing service mid-October, as well as the ongoing addition of Airbus A321neo aircraft on West Coast routes. The airline currently has 6 Boeing 767 planes, and is on track to have a total of 11 A321neos by the end of the year. It will also begin accepting delivery of 10 Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners in 2021. The airline previously said the decision to suspend its China service was a difficult one, as it believes the market holds potential for Hawaii. CE Peter Ingram recently said the market has not developed as quickly as the airline expected, and it has even shrunk since service began in 2014. <br/>
