Hawaiian Air price fixing is prejudiced against local people

NOTE: Hawaiian Air petition sweeps personal info to MoveOn.org

To be delivered to: The Hawaii State House, The Hawaii State Senate and Governor Neil Abercrombie

We petition our government to have a referendum to bring back the ferry. We petition our government to invite airlines already coming to Hawaii to service the Hawaiian islands and Hawaii residents.

Inter-island travel is essential for keeping Hawaii families connected. Hawaiian Air doubled the price of inter-island tickets since Aloha Airlines and the ferry was forced out of business. There are no longer discounted kama'aina, senior, or youth rates, and no more coupon books for frequent travelers, so it is prohibitive for people to visit their children, grandchildren and family. We are calling on our government to take action.
