Dear Mr. LaHood:

We are current and former employees and friends of Hawaiian Airlines and we are writing to strongly support Hawaiian's application to provide passenger service between Tokyo International Airport at Haneda and Kona International Airport on the island of Hawai'i.

We have watched Hawaiian Airlines grow from a tiny interisland carrier into an international airline with a strong and grow ing presence in Asia. Today, Hawaiian Airlines is one of the largest companies in the state of Hawai'i, with more than 4,600 employees. The Hawai'i Tourism Authority estimates that Hawaiian's domestic and international routes contribute more than $2 bill ion in direct visitor spending annually to the economy of the state of Hawai'i.

Hawaiian Airlines has consistently provided passenger service between Tokyo and Honolulu since November of 2010, while other carriers failed to fully utilize the slot pairs aw arded to them the year Haneda became an international airport.

The proposed daily nonstop service from Tokyo to Kona will add an estimated $74 million into the state's economy and 1,400 additional jobs benefits which strengthen US GDP growth.

Hawaiian A irlines' application has clear and compelling public benefits and we urge you to approve it.

Sincerely,
