This summer Southwest Airlines will offer almost 300,000 monthly seats into Hawaii with a host of new and resumed routes coming online.
New services from Las Vegas (LAS), Los Angeles (LAX), Phoenix (PHX) and San Diego (SAN) will be bolstered by other additional frequencies from the mainline.
The LCC, which will utilize Boeing 737-800 and MAX aircraft, will offer more capacity by March than at any time since it launched service to the islands two years previously.
Total Southwest capacity to Hawaii will reach 292,950 seats in July 2021, with the previous peak at 264,400 seats in March 2020.
