go! Airline will be exiting the Hawaii market this evening after serving the islands for the last eight years. While the airline provided low costs flights between the islands, many Hawaii residents blamed go! for the bankruptcy of popular Aloha Airlines and felt that go! Airline put Aloha out of business. President of the company, Chris Pappaioanou stated, "We always want every opportunity we pursue to succeed. So in that respect it's unfortunate. But we made the decision (to leave) in pursuit of tremendous growth opportunities that are on the mainland with our code-share partners." Pappaioanou added that the majority of their Hawaii-based employees would be relocated to the mainland and work for Mesa Airline, the parent company.
