Mokulele for Waimea-Kohala Airport 

Dear Department of Transportation, 

We were dismayed when Pacific Wings stopped flying to our 

airport. Having passenger service in Waimea saves driving time 

and traffic congestion. 

I support Mokulele Airlines' 4 year bid to link Honolulu and 

Waimea. Mokulele is the best candidate as they support lower 

fares, frequent flight, and ease of booking. The population in 

this region has been growing and we deserve safe, stable and 

affordable service to Waimea/Kohala Airport. 

Please select Mokulele Airlines to serve Waimea/Kohala for 4 

years. 

Aloha and mahalo,

WAIMEA-KOHALA AIR SERVICE 

ALOHA, DEPT. OF TRANSPORTATION; I AM WRITING YOU IN SUPPORT OF MOKULELE AIRLINES SERVICING 

OUR WONDERFUL COMMUNITY WITH AIR "SERVICE" TO THE OTHER ISLANDS. AT THE SAME TIME I WOULD BE REMISS 

IN NOT TAKING YOU FOLKS AT THE DOT TO TASK FOR LETIING PACIFIC WINGS CONTINUE TO RIP OFF THE SYSTEM 

WHERE THEY WERE ABLE TO CONTINUE RECEIVING FUNDS UNDER FALSE PRETENSES OF HAVING AIR SERVICE THAT WAS 

NON EXISTENT FOR 6 YRS .. I THINK THEY SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE BIDDING FOR THIS CONTRACT. ALSO WE 

WERE ONLY AWARE OF THIS MOVE OF OPENING BIDDING FOR THESE ROUTES ON A 6/20/13, IN AN ARTICLE IN THE 

NEWSPAPER, WHICH WAS THE LAST DAY FOR COMMUNITY INPUT. NEVER THE LESS, THIS MUCH NEEDED SERVICE HAS 

BEEN OVERLOOKED FOR TOO LONG, AND WILL BE MUCH APPRECIATED. MAHALO ROBERT C HONS --WAIMEA RESIDENT

Dear Dept. of Transportation: 

I am writing this letter to encourage you to allow Mokulele to fly into Waimea. As a dentist who provides 

unique services that draws patients from other islands. this would make it so much easier for people who need 

medical services to either fly to Waimea or for us Waimea people to f1y to Honolulu for one day visits. Please 

allow a much needed service to our community. =====-

Thank you for your consideration.

.. .. . but keeping their fares LOW is very important (especially for us local infrequent flyer seniors ...... as Mokulele Airlines will have no competition and it 

probably would be easy for them to increase fares anytime they wanted to ... so 

please include some stipulation to that affect in any contract them. 

p.s. 

sorry I am 2 days late of deadline to E-Mail this .... but it IS the weekend ... 

hopefully you will be gracious enough to still include my E-Mail comments.

Air transportation for Waimea 

Those of us living in Waimea love our town and are willing to live here in spite of the great inconvenience of air travel. 

When we moved here in 1978, we had air service and enjoyed using it. Most of us in the Waimea area were shocked 

when we learned that our air service was ending. My husband and I, and everyone we know, are eager for Mokulele 

Airlines to come to our airport. Driving to Kana or to Hila adds a great deal of time, energy, and money to our air travel, 

whether for fun or for medical or other necessary reasons. I hope that this service can become a reality. Yours truly, Tana 

Hilliard

I currently have to drive one hour to Hilo or two hours to Kona just to

Waimea air service 

Dear DOT, WE support the effort of Mokulele to provide the service to the Waimea Airport. We have used the Waimea 

Airport since 1960. More recently, the direct Princeville service to Honolulu was great and we also need good flights to 

and from Maui. Mokulele was started by a great young lady whose Dad was a pilot and she did her time as owner. We 

need good service. Please get Mokulele or its equivalent to provide service to these 2 locations from Waimea Airport.
