Aloha, take your seat

Tuesday, 03 Feb, 2005 0

In a major switch, Hawaiian Airlines is eliminating its open seat policy on inter-island flights. Seat assignments will begin next month.

The airline says the change will make boarding more orderly and efficient for passengers on its 700 weekly inter-island flights.

Rival carrier Aloha said it has no similar plans.

Aloha, which has 616 inter-island flights a week, tested seating briefly in the 1980s. But the company says it was not popular.
