HAWAIIAN AIRLINES REACHES TENTATIVE AGREEMENT WITH AMERICAN AIRLINES
HONOLULU -- Bruce R. Nobles, chairman, president and chief executive
officer of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc., today announced that Hawaiian and American
Airlines have reached a tentative agreement to restructure Hawaiian's
obligations to American and provide future cost savings to Hawaiian under
long-term aircraft lease agreements between the two carriers.
Nobles said the tentative agreement with American is contingent on
Hawaiian's reaching definitive agreements with its labor groups, other creditors
and the private investor group that has signed a letter of intent to infuse $20
million in equity capital into Hawaiian. The letter of intent requires
definitive agreements between Hawaiian and the other parties to be in place by
December 8, 1995 or the letter expires.
Although the company is working diligently with all parties to complete the
agreements, there can be no assurance that all the conditions to these
agreements will be met.
