Mokulele Airlines has announced that they will be beginning to offer commercial flights out of Kalaeloa Airport starting on July 1, 2014. Kalaeloa Airport is located on the western side of Oahu and was formerly the Barbers Point Naval Air Station. The first route that Mokulele will offer will be between Kalaeloa and Kahului Airport on the island of Maui. Ron Hansen, the chief executive officer for the airline, stated, "It's been a yearlong goal of ours, and it's finally happening and we'll see what the reception is. And if it warrants more flights based on bookings, we'll add more flights."
With regards to other potential destinations, Hansen added, "What we're trying to determine is where passengers want to go at this point. We feel the most conservative way to venture into this is with three flights a day into Kahului, and the rest of the (airline's) flights will remain the same."
