PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
THE COMPANY
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. ("Hawaiian Airlines" or the "Company") is the largest
airline headquartered in Hawaii, based on operating revenues of $426.4 million
for 1998. The Company is engaged primarily in the scheduled transportation of
passengers, cargo and mail. The Company was incorporated in January 1929 under
the laws of the Territory of Hawaii. The Common Stock of the Company trades on
the American Stock Exchange and Pacific Exchange under the symbol "HA." The
Company's principal offices are located at 3375 Koapaka Street, Suite G-350,
Honolulu, Hawaii 96819. Its telephone and facsimile numbers are (808) 835-3700
and (808) 835-3690, respectively. Its website address is www.hawaiianair.com.
OPERATIONS
PASSENGER SERVICE
The Company's passenger airline business is its chief source of revenue.
Scheduled passenger service consists of, on average and depending on
seasonality, approximately 130 to 150 flights per day among the six major
islands of the State of Hawaii ("Interisland"), daily service to Las Vegas and
the four key United States ("U.S.") West Coast gateway cities of Los Angeles,
San Francisco, Seattle and Portland ("Transpac"), twice weekly service to Pago
Pago, American Samoa and weekly service to Papeete, Tahiti in the South Pacific
("Southpac"). The Company also provides charter service from Honolulu to Las
Vegas and Anchorage, Alaska ("Overseas Charter"). As discussed below, the
Company operates a fleet of DC-9 and DC-10 aircraft to service these routes.
Management estimates that the entire Interisland market averages approximately
nine to ten million passengers annually. Management estimates that approximately
two-thirds of Interisland travelers are visitors to Hawaii while the balance are
Hawaii residents. Residents rely on Interisland flights in much the same way as
mainland residents rely on a state highway system. The Company's Interisland
operations provide service to seven airports on the six major Hawaiian islands
of Oahu, Hawaii, Maui, Kauai, Molokai and Lanai. The Company's Interisland
routes are serviced with DC-9 aircraft. During 1998, the Interisland market
represented approximately 36.3% of the Company's total operating revenues.
During 1998, the Company's Transpac operations served Las Vegas and the U.S.
West Coast gateway cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle and Portland.
DC-10 aircraft are used to service Transpac routes. In 1998, the Transpac market
represented approximately 50.1% of the Company's total operating revenues.
Hawaiian Airlines currently is the sole carrier providing air service from
Honolulu to American Samoa and Tahiti. Fares are relatively stable throughout
the year. These Southpac routes are serviced with DC-10 aircraft. During 1998,
the Southpac market represented approximately 5.1% of the Company's total
operating revenues.
In addition to its regular scheduled service, the Company operated, on average,
six weekly charter flights to Las Vegas and two charter rotations per week to
Anchorage. The Company's Overseas Charter operation utilized DC-10 aircraft and
produced 8.5% of the Company's total operating revenues in 1998.
Refer to MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS contained in Part II, Item 7 of this Form 10-K for further
discussion on the Company's passenger service routes.

FUEL
Aviation fuel is a significant expense for any air carrier and even marginal
changes in fuel prices can greatly impact a carrier's profitability. The
following table sets forth statistics about Hawaiian Airlines' aviation fuel
consumption and cost for each of the last three years:

</TABLE>
Refer to MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS contained in Part II, Item 7 of this Form 10-K for further
discussion on aircraft fuel expense.
The single most important factor affecting petroleum product prices, including
the price of aviation fuel, continues to be the actions of the major oil
producing countries in setting targets for the production and pricing of crude
oil. In addition, aviation fuel prices are affected by the markets for heating
oil, diesel fuel, automotive gasoline and natural gas. All petroleum product
prices continue to be subject to unpredictable economic, political and market
factors. Also, the balance among supply, demand and price has become more
reactive to world market conditions. Accordingly, the price and availability of
aviation fuel, as well as other petroleum products, continues to be
unpredictable. In the event of a fuel supply shortage resulting from a
disruption of oil imports or otherwise, higher fuel prices or curtailment of
scheduled service could result. A one cent change in the cost per gallon of fuel
has an impact on the Company's operating expenses of approximately $89,000 per
month (based on 1998 consumption). Changes in fuel prices may have a greater
impact on the Company than certain of its Transpac competitors with more modern,
fuel efficient aircraft.
As discussed below, although Hawaiian Airlines has contracts with several
different fuel suppliers, almost all of its aviation fuel is purchased from
Northwest Airlines, Inc. ("Northwest").
AIRCRAFT
At December 31, 1998 the Company's fleet consists of 11 DC-10 and 14 DC-9
aircraft of which one DC-10 and three DC-9s are owned by the Company. The
remaining ten DC-10s are leased under long-term operating leases with American
Airlines, Inc. ("American"), which expire in 2001. Of the 11 leased DC-9s
(including related flight equipment), five are under operating leases and six
are under capital leases. The DC-9 leases expire at various times between 2000
and 2004.
Aircraft maintenance costs represent a significant operating cost for the
Company (approximately 21%, 19% and 18% of total operating expenses for 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively) which will increase as the Company's aircraft
increase in age. The average age of the Company's DC-10 and DC-9 aircraft is 26
years and 21 years, respectively. The Company intends to replace some or all of
its existing aircraft with replacement aircraft in the next decade in order to
reduce maintenance costs and achieve other operating efficiencies, although no
assurance can be given that the Company will have the capital necessary to
replace such aircraft.
In the event one or more of the Company's aircraft were to be out of service,
the Company may have difficulty completing its scheduled or chartered service.
Any interruption of service caused by the unavailability of aircraft due to
unscheduled servicing or repair or otherwise, or lack of availability of
substitute aircraft, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
service, reputation and profitability. As is customary in the airline industry,
the Company does not have business interruption insurance.
Refer to MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS contained in Part II, Item 7 of this Form 10-K for further
discussion on the Company's aircraft fleet and the maintenance thereof.

<PAGE>
SEGMENT INFORMATION
Due to the centralization of the Company's operations in the State of Hawaii and
the interdependence of its routes, management considers its operations to be one
industry segment. Refer to MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS contained in Part II, Item 7 of this Form
10-K for discussion on Industry Segment Information and those certain operating
revenue products which constitute the segment.
SEASONALITY
The airline industry is a highly cyclical business with substantial volatility.
Airlines frequently experience short-term cash requirements caused by both
seasonal fluctuations in traffic that often deplete cash during off-peak periods
and other factors that are not necessarily seasonal, including the extent and
nature of price and other competition from other airlines, changing levels of
operations, national and international events, fuel prices and general economic
conditions, including inflation. Because a substantial portion of airline
travel, both personal and to a lesser extent business, is discretionary, the
industry tends to experience adverse financial results in general economic
downturns. Accordingly, airlines require substantial liquidity to sustain
continued operations under most conditions. Working capital deficits are not
uncommon in the airline industry since airlines typically have no product
inventories and sales of tickets not yet flown are reflected as current
liabilities.
The Company's results are sensitive to seasonal and cyclical volatility
primarily due to seasonal leisure and holiday travel. The Company believes that
Hawaii is one of the most popular destinations for passengers flying on frequent
flyer travel awards and is in general a popular spot for vacation travelers. As
such, traffic levels are typically lowest in the first quarter of the year with
strong travel periods during June, July, August and December. Aggressive fare
pricing strategies that increase the availability and size of ticket discounts
are utilized during weaker travel periods. Because certain of the Company's
costs do not vary significantly regardless of traffic levels, such seasonality
substantially affects the Company's profitability and liquidity.
DEPENDENCE ON TOURISM
Since the Company's operations are limited almost exclusively to flights to,
from and among, the Hawaiian Islands, the Company's profitability is linked to
the number of travelers to, from and among the Islands and a material reduction
in the number of such travelers would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's operations. Tourism constitutes a majority of the visitor counts to
and from Hawaii. Because tourism levels are related to discretionary income, the
level of Hawaii tourism is affected by the strength of the local Hawaii economy
and economies in the areas from which tourists to Hawaii typically originate.
Hawaii tourism is also dependent upon the popularity of Hawaii as a tourist
destination and negative events reduce tourist interest in Hawaii. In addition,
from time to time, various events such as the Persian Gulf War and
industry-specific problems such as strikes have had a negative impact on tourism
in Hawaii.
In 1998, for the first time in five years, the total number of visitors to
Hawaii declined as compared to the previous year. Preliminary statistics from
the Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau (the "HVCB") estimate that Hawaii
ended the 1998 year with approximately 6.7 million visitors, a 1.6% decline from
1997. Westbound arrivals from the U.S. mainland and European markets increased
by 4.1% over 1997. However, the increase was offset by a decrease in Eastbound
traffic, primarily from Japan, of 10.8%. Year over year, the islands of Maui,
the Big Island of Hawaii and Kauai experienced increased visitor counts of 0.7%,
6.6% and 3.1%, respectively. The increase was countered by a 5.5% decrease for
Oahu, which has historically had the largest number of visitors.
Significant influences on passenger traffic to Hawaii have been and will
continue to be 1) the local Hawaii economy, which has stagnated in the 1990s due
to declines in outside capital investment, sluggish tourism, reduced military
spending and reduction in the sugar and pineapple industries, once the mainstays
of the Hawaii agricultural business; 2) the strength and growth of the U.S.
mainland economy; 3) the general economic crisis in Asia, especially Japan; and
4) the recent resurgence of the vacation cruise industry and more effective
promotion by areas such as Mexico, the Caribbean and Europe and domestic leisure
attractions, such as theme parks and Las Vegas. Also, the increased incidence of
tactical pricing sales for
6
<PAGE>
travel in and among the 48 contiguous states of the U.S., which have become
more prevalent during the past two years, has resulted in the diversion of
potential Hawaii discretionary travel.
No assurance can be given that the level of passenger traffic to Hawaii will not
decline further in the future. A decline in the level of Hawaii passenger
traffic could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations.
COMPETITION
The airline industry is highly competitive, primarily due to the effects of the
Airline Deregulation Act of 1978, recodified into the Transportation Act, which
has substantially eliminated government authority to regulate domestic routes
and fares and has increased the ability of airlines to compete with respect to
destination, flight frequencies and fares. Airline profit levels are highly
sensitive to and can be severely impacted by, adverse changes in fuel costs,
average yield and passenger demand.
The U.S. airline industry has consolidated in recent years as a result of
mergers and liquidations, and further consolidation may occur in the future. The
consolidations have, among other things, enabled certain carriers to expand
their international operations and increase their presence in the U.S. domestic
market. In addition, the airline industry has experienced in recent years
alliances between large U.S. and foreign carriers and between U.S. carriers,
allowing those carriers within such alliances to strengthen their overall
operations. Conversely, the industry has also seen in recent years the emergence
and growth of low cost, low fare domestic carriers who have further intensified
competitive pressures. Aircraft, skilled labor and gates at most airports
continue to be available to start-up carriers. In some cases, the new entrants
have initiated or triggered price discounting.
Many of the Company's competitors are larger and have substantially greater
resources. In addition, the commencement of service by new carriers on the
Company's routes could negatively impact the Company's operating results.
Competing airlines (including the Company) have, from time to time, reduced fare
levels and increased capacity beyond market demand on routes served by the
Company in order to maintain or generate additional revenues. Such activity,
which may occur in the future, by competing airlines could reduce fares or
passenger traffic to levels where profitable operations could not be achieved.
Due to its smaller size and liquidity, the Company may be less able to withstand
aggressive marketing tactics or a prolonged fare war initiated by its
competitors.
Vigorous price competition exists, with competitors frequently offering reduced
discount fares and other promotions to stimulate traffic during normally slack
travel periods, generate cash flow or increase relative market share in selected
markets. The introduction of broadly available, deeply discounted fares by a
major U.S. airline could result in lower yields for the entire industry and
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results.
Airlines are subject to a high degree of financial and operating leverage. Due
to high fixed costs, the expenses of each flight do not vary proportionately
with the number of passengers carried, but the revenues generated from a
particular flight are directly related to the number of passengers carried.
Accordingly, while a decrease in the number of passengers carried would cause a
corresponding decrease in revenue (if not offset by higher fares), it may result
in a disproportionately greater decrease in profits. However, an increase in the
number of passengers carried would have the opposite effect.
The airline industry is highly sensitive to general economic conditions. Because
a substantial portion of airline travel is discretionary, the operating and
financial results of the Company may be negatively impacted by any downturn in
national or regional economic conditions in the U.S., particularly California,
the Pacific Northwest and Hawaii, and certain Asian countries, particularly
Japan. Any prolonged general reduction in airline passenger traffic will
adversely affect the Company.
INTERISLAND
While there are several small commuter and air taxi companies, which provide air
transportation to Hawaii airports that cannot be served with large aircraft, the
Interisland market is serviced primarily by two carriers, the Company and its
primary competitor in the Interisland market, Aloha Airlines, Inc. ("Aloha").
Aloha's competitive position is strengthened through its marketing affiliation
with United Airlines, Inc. ("United"), the largest carrier of passengers to
Hawaii. Aloha participates in United's
7
<PAGE>
frequent flyer program and also has a code sharing agreement with United.
Aloha principally utilizes 19 Boeing 737 aircraft with a schedule that
averages approximately, depending on seasonality, 150 to 180 daily flights,
which service the same basic Interisland routes as the Company. Hawaiian
Airlines has approximately, depending on seasonality, 130 to 150 Interisland
flights per day. Also, refer to THE DISCUSSION BELOW REGARDING THE COMPANY'S
MAJOR MARKETING AFFILIATIONS, INCLUDING CODE SHARING ARRANGEMENTS. The
Company believes that Interisland competition is primarily based on fare
levels, flight frequency, on-time performance and reliability, name
recognition, frequent flyer programs, customer service and aircraft type.
TRANSPAC
On its Transpac routes, the Company currently competes with major carriers
such as United, Delta Airlines, Inc., Northwest and, to a lesser extent,
Continental Airlines, Inc. ("Continental") and American. In addition, the
Company competes against charter carriers in the Transpac market. The Company
believes that Transpac competition is primarily based on fare levels, flight
frequency, on-time performance and reliability, name recognition, frequent
flyer programs, customer service and in-flight service.
RELIANCE ON THIRD PARTIES
The Company has entered into agreements with contractors, including American,
Northwest, Continental and certain other airlines, to provide certain facilities
and services required for its operations, including aircraft leasing and
maintenance, code sharing, reservations, computer services, frequent flyer
programs, passenger processing, fuel, ground facilities, baggage and cargo
handling and personnel training. This reliance on third parties to provide
services subjects the Company to the risk that such services could be
discontinued without adequate replacement services being available.
The Company leases ten DC-10 aircraft from American. American is responsible for
maintenance on all of the Company's DC-10 aircraft (leased and owned) with the
Company having access to spare parts, engines and rotables for the maintenance
of these aircraft. As such, the Company does not maintain large inventories of
spare engines or parts to support the operation of the DC-10 aircraft. The
Company pays a minimum monthly charge for maintenance services, monthly in
arrears. During 1998, the Company incurred approximately $69.6 million of lease
and maintenance expenses under the American leases and aircraft maintenance
agreements. American has the right to terminate its obligation to provide
aircraft maintenance services on and after January 1, 1999, upon 180 days' prior
notice. American has indicated to the Company its intent to provide maintenance
services through September 2001, although it may still exercise its right to
terminate upon 180 days' prior notice. If American terminated the maintenance
arrangement, the Company would have to seek an alternate source of maintenance
service or undertake to maintain its DC-10s internally. No assurance can be
given that the Company would be able to do so on a basis that is as
cost-effective as the American maintenance arrangement. Refer to MANAGEMENT'S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
contained in Part II, Item 7 of this Form 10-K for further discussion on the
Company's DC-10 aircraft fleet. The Company also participates in American's
AAdvantage frequent flyer program and SABRE reservation system. Commencing March
2, 1998, the Company and American also effected a code sharing agreement. These
programs and services make the Company more competitive, but increase its
reliance on third parties.
The Company purchases almost all of its aviation fuel from Northwest pursuant to
an agreement which provides that, in case of shortages, Northwest will provide
fuel to its own fleet first and then a portion of the remaining fuel available
will be allocated between Hawaiian Airlines and any other applicable airlines.
The agreement requires Northwest to provide Hawaiian Airlines with aviation fuel
at Northwest's actual acquisition cost without markup for profit and with
reimbursement only for out-of-pocket costs. The agreement is renewed
automatically on December 31 of each year unless canceled by either of the
parties with 90 days' written notice. Hawaiian Airlines is prohibited from
reselling such fuel. No assurance can be given that the Company would be able to
secure an adequate supply of fuel from alternate sources if a fuel shortage were
to cause the supply from Northwest to be inadequate or if Northwest were to
cancel the agreement. The Company paid Northwest approximately $60.7 million,
$72.6 million and $70.9 million for the fuel supplied under this agreement in
1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Further, effective July 1996, the Company
entered into a cooperative marketing agreement
8
<PAGE>
with Northwest, which provides for extensive marketing cooperation, including
a code sharing arrangement and frequent flyer participation. In 1998 and in
both 1997 and 1996, a majority of the Company's ticket sales were made by
travel agents, including approximately 40% and 30% by six large wholesalers.
In 1998, a particular Hawaii-based wholesaler, Panda Travel Inc., constituted
approximately 13% of the Company's total operating revenues. Travel agents
generally have a choice between one or more airlines when booking a
customer's flight. Accordingly, any effort by travel agencies to favor
another airline or to disfavor the Company could adversely affect the
Company. Although management intends to continue to offer an attractive and
competitive product to travel agencies and to maintain favorable relations
with travel agencies, there can be no assurance that travel agencies will not
disfavor the Company or favor other airlines in the future, either of which
could have an adverse effect on the Company's operations.
REGULATION
GENERAL
As a certificated air carrier, Hawaiian Airlines is subject to the regulatory
jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of Transportation (the "DOT") and the
Federal Aviation Administration (the "FAA"). The DOT has jurisdiction over
certain aviation matters such as the carrier's certificate of public convenience
and necessity, international routes and fares, consumer protection policies
including baggage liability and denied-boarding compensation and unfair
competitive practices as set forth in the Transportation Act. Hawaiian Airlines
and all other domestic airlines are subject to regulation by the FAA under the
Transportation Act. The FAA has regulatory jurisdiction over flight operations
generally, including equipment, ground facilities, security systems, maintenance
and other safety matters. To assure compliance with its operational standards,
the FAA requires air carriers to obtain operations, air worthiness and other
certificates, which may be suspended or revoked for cause. The FAA also conducts
safety audits and has the power to impose fines and other sanctions for
violations of aviation safety and security regulations. As are other carriers,
Hawaiian Airlines is subject to inspections by the FAA in the normal course of
its business on a routine ongoing basis. Hawaiian Airlines operates under a
Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity issued by the DOT (authorizing
it to provide commercial aircraft service) as well as a Part 121 Scheduled
Carrier Operating Certificate issued by the FAA.
MAINTENANCE DIRECTIVES AND OTHER REGULATIONS
Hawaiian Airlines has developed extensive maintenance programs, which consist of
a series of phased checks of each aircraft type. These checks are performed at
specified intervals measured either by time flown or by the number of takeoffs
and landings ("cycles") performed. Checks range from daily "walk around"
inspections, to more involved overnight maintenance checks, to exhaustive and
time consuming overhauls. Aircraft engines are subject to phased, or continuous,
maintenance programs designed to detect and remedy potential problems before
they occur. The service lives of certain parts and components of both airframe
and engines are time or cycle controlled. Parts and other components are
replaced or overhauled prior to the expiration of their time or cycle limits.
The FAA approves all airline maintenance programs, including changes to the
programs. In addition, the FAA licenses the mechanics who perform the
inspections and repairs, as well as the inspectors who monitor the work.
The FAA frequently issues air worthiness directives, often in response to
specific incidents or reports by operators or manufacturers, requiring operators
of specified equipment to perform prescribed inspections, repairs or
modifications within stated time periods or numbers of cycles. In the last
several years, the FAA has issued a number of maintenance directives and other
regulations relating to, among other things, cargo compartment fire
detection/suppression systems, collision avoidance systems, airborne windshear
avoidance systems, noise abatement and increased inspection requirements. The
Company expects to continue to incur substantial expenditures for the purpose of
complying with these new regulations, including, but not limited to:
1) The Company anticipates that in the period 1999 through 2001, eight of its
DC-9 aircraft will require heavy airframe overhaul checks (the "C5-Check",
previously referred to as a D-Check). The C5-Check for a DC-9 requires more
than 20,000 man-hours of maintenance work and includes stripping the
airframe, extensively testing the airframe structure and a large number of
parts and components, and reassembling the overhauled airframe with new or
rebuilt components. The Company anticipates each C5-Check to cost
approximately $1.0 million;
9
<PAGE>
2) The FAA has and is expected to continue to require structural modifications
and the replacement of certain parts, as well as the implementation of
additional maintenance programs or changes to current programs, with
respect to various types of aircraft over a certain age. These requirements
vary, depending on the type of aircraft covered. Based on information
currently available, the Company estimates that the total cost of complying
with the aging aircraft requirements over the 1999 through 2003 period will
approximate $660,000 per DC-9 aircraft;
3) The Company expects to incur approximately $100,000 per DC-9 aircraft per
year for maintenance required under a corrosion prevention and control
program. This program is anticipated to continue indefinitely in the
future;
4) The FAA has mandated the installation of smoke detection and fire
suppression systems in the cargo compartments of both DC-10 and DC-9
aircraft by December 2000. The cost for systems and installation is
estimated to be $130,000 and $83,000 per each DC-10 and DC-9 aircraft,
respectively;
5) As a result of certain incidents where Digital Flight Data Recorder
("DFDR") information was insufficient to determine the cause of the
accident, the FAA has also mandated additional recording parameters for the
DC-10 and DC-9 aircraft by the first heavy maintenance check after August
1999 but no later than August 2001. The DC-10 DFDR will be upgraded from 17
to 22 parameters at an estimated cost of $60,000 per aircraft. The DC-9
DFDR will be upgraded from 11 to 18 parameters at an estimated cost of
$47,000 per aircraft;
6) During the period from 1999 through 2003, the Company anticipates continued
implementation of its supplemental inspection document program for certain
of its DC-9 aircraft, which is estimated to range up to $27,000 per
aircraft.
The estimated future cost of complying with FAA regulations as discussed in the
preceding paragraphs will be in addition to the costs of the Company's current
DC-10 and DC-9 fleet maintenance programs.
In 1990, Congress passed legislation (the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of
1990) which provided for a reduction in commercial aircraft noise levels.
Carriers were permitted to comply with the transitional requirements either by
1) phasing out, or retrofitting with noise abatement equipment, certain older
aircraft known as Stage 2 aircraft, or 2) phasing in quieter aircraft, known as
Stage 3 aircraft by December 31, 1999, with the possibility of certain waivers
until December 31, 2003, when full phase out is required. Congress provided an
exemption for air carriers operating turnaround service in Hawaii, or between a
place in Hawaii and a place outside the 48 contiguous states, to operate as many
Stage 2 aircraft of a certain weight as they operated on November 5, 1990. Air
carriers that provided flights between places only in Hawaii on November 5, 1990
may include in the number of Stage 2 aircraft under the exemption all Stage 2
aircraft that it owned or leased on November 5, 1990, whether or not the
aircraft were operated by the carrier on that date. However, an air carrier may
provide flights between places only in Hawaii using Stage 2 aircraft only if the
carrier provided the service on November 5, 1990. The Company believes these
exemptions restrict air carriers other than the Company and Aloha from operating
Stage 2 aircraft in Hawaii. Because Stage 2 aircraft are less expensive to
acquire than Stage 3 aircraft, this exemption provides limited protection
against the entry of another carrier, which would be required to operate an all
Stage 3 fleet. This advantage is partially offset by the fact that Stage 3
aircraft are generally less expensive to operate and maintain, as well as the
fact that in any event over time, carriers will move toward having an all Stage
3 fleet. Although the Company and Aloha may operate Stage 2 aircraft in Hawaii
after December 31, 1999, the air carriers will be prohibited from transporting
Stage 2 aircraft to and from the 48 contiguous states for any purpose, including
heavy airframe overhaul and maintenance, unless an amendment to the Federal law
is enacted by Congress or an exemption is obtained from the FAA. No assurance
can be given that the Company can obtain the exemption from the FAA or that
Congress will pass legislation allowing non-revenue operations of Stage 2
aircraft to and from the contiguous 48 states. Should neither of these events
occur, the Company would have to seek alternatives, primarily with regard to
heavy maintenance service on its Stage 2 aircraft. No assurance can be given
that the Company would be able to do so on a cost-effective basis.
Additional laws and regulations have been proposed from time to time that could
significantly increase the cost of airline operations by, for example, imposing
additional requirements or restrictions on
10
<PAGE>
operations. Laws and regulations also have been considered from time to time
that would prohibit or restrict the ownership and/or transfer of airline
routes or takeoff and landing slots. Also, the award of international routes
to U.S. carriers (and their retention) is regulated by treaties and related
agreements between the U.S. and foreign governments, which are amended from
time to time. The Company cannot predict what laws and regulations will be
adopted or what changes to international air transportation treaties will be
effected, if any, or how they will affect the Company.
Hawaiian Airlines believes that it is in compliance with all requirements
necessary to maintain in good standing its operating authority granted by the
DOT and its air carrier operating certificate issued by the FAA. A modification,
suspension or revocation of any of the Company's DOT or FAA authorizations or
certificates would have a material adverse effect upon the Company.
Several aspects of airlines' operations are subject to regulation or oversight
by Federal agencies other than the FAA and DOT. The antitrust laws are enforced
by the U.S. Department of Justice. The U.S. Postal Service has jurisdiction over
certain aspects of the transportation of mail and related services provided by
the Company's cargo services. Labor relations in the air transportation industry
are generally regulated under the Railway Labor Act. The Company and other
airlines certificated prior to October 24, 1978 are also subject to preferential
hiring rights granted by the Transportation Act to certain airline employees who
have been furloughed or terminated (other than for cause).
LIMITATION ON FOREIGN OWNERSHIP OF SHARES
The Transportation Act prohibits non-U.S. citizens from owning more than 25% of
the voting interest of a U.S. air carrier. The Company's Restated Articles of
Incorporation prohibit the ownership or control of more than 25% (to be
increased or decreased from time to time to that percentage permissible under
the laws of the U.S.) of issued and outstanding voting capital stock of the
Company by persons who are not "citizens of the U.S.". As of December 31, 1998,
less than 25% of the Common Stock of the Company was held by non-U.S. citizens.
INSURANCE
The Company is exposed to potential losses that may be incurred in the event of
an aircraft accident. Any such accident could involve not only the repair or
replacement of a damaged aircraft and its consequential temporary or permanent
loss of service, but also significant potential claims of injured passengers and
others. The Company is required by the DOT to carry liability insurance on each
of its aircraft. The Company currently maintains public liability insurance
which management believes is adequate and consistent with current industry
practice. However, there can be no assurance that the amount of such coverage
will not be changed or that the Company will not bear substantial losses from
accidents. Substantial claims resulting from an accident in excess of related
insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Certain statements contained here and throughout, that are not related to
historical results, including, without limitation, statements regarding the
Company's business strategy and objectives, future financial position and
estimated cost savings, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act
and involve risks and uncertainties. Although the Company believes that the
assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable,
there can be no assurance that such assumptions will prove to be accurate and
actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such
differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed under Part I, Item
I, Business and heretofore, as well as those discussed elsewhere in this Form
10-K. All forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-K are qualified
in their entirety by this cautionary statement.
It is not reasonably possible to itemize all of the many factors and specific
events that could affect the outlook of an airline operating in the global
economy. Some factors that could significantly impact capacity, load factors,
revenues, expenses and cash flows include the airline pricing environment, fuel
costs, labor union situations both at the Company and other carriers, low-fare
carrier expansion, capacity decisions of other carriers, actions of the U.S. and
foreign governments, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, inflation, the
general economic environment and other factors discussed herein.
Developments in any of these areas, as well as other risks and uncertainties
detailed from time to time in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission
filings, could cause the Company's results to differ from results that have been
or may be projected by or on behalf of the Company. The Company cautions that
the foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive. The Company does not
undertake to update any forward-looking statements that may be made from time to
time by or on behalf of the Company.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
1998 COMPARED TO 1997
For the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company generated operating income of
$17.4 million, a $14.9 million improvement from 1997 operating income of $2.5
million. The Company also generated net income of $8.2 million, a $9.2 million
improvement from the $1.0 million net loss experienced in 1997. The improvement
is associated with the Company's generation of $22.2 million more of operating
revenues. Decreases of $11.5 million and $3.9 million in overall fuel and
landing fee expenses, respectively, were offset by other operating expense
increases as a result of increased flight activity in 1998.
Included in the 1998 and 1997 results of operations are provisions for income
taxes of $7.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively. While generally accepted
accounting principles require that the provisions for income taxes be recorded,
most of the amounts recorded will not require cash outlay as the amounts will be
offset by net operating loss carryforwards available to the Company. As noted in
Note 7 in NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS contained in Part IV, Item 14 of this
Form 10-K, the estimated income tax benefit from the expected utilization of
these net operating loss carryforwards has been applied as a reduction to
reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to identifiable assets.

OPERATING REVENUES
Operating revenues totaled $426.4 million in 1998 compared to $404.2 million in
1997, an increase of $22.2 million or 5.5%, driven principally by a $22.1
million or 6.7% increase in passenger revenues.

</TABLE>
Significant year to year variances were as follows:
Interisland passenger revenues totaled $138.6 million in 1998 compared to $132.6
million in 1997. The $6.0 million or 4.5% increase is in direct correlation to a
1.3CENTS or 4.9% increase in yield. Year over year, revenue passengers carried
and revenue passenger miles ("RPM") were relatively comparable. The increase in
yield is attributed to 1) general price increases initiated by the Company
throughout 1998 and 2) improved fare and inventory management through use of the
Company's relatively new yield management system.
Transpac passenger revenues totaled $196.7 million in 1998, an increase of $16.3
million or 9.0% over 1997 Transpac
14
<PAGE>
passenger revenues of $180.4 million. The Company experienced increases of
3.9% and 6.0% in its passengers carried and RPM, respectively. These
increases were complemented by a 0.2CENTS or 3.1% increase in yield, again
reflecting improved fare and inventory management and general price increase
initiatives by the Company throughout 1998.
Overseas charter revenues decreased by $1.4 million or 3.8% in 1998. The
decrease is primarily due to, during the first half of 1998, the Company flying
on average, two fewer charters per week to Las Vegas and general price decreases
charged for both its Las Vegas and Anchorage charter flights.
OTHER OPERATING
Other operating revenues in 1998 totaled $14.7 million, an increase of $1.1
million or 8.3%, primarily due to additional revenues related to the promotion
of the Company's frequent flyer program.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Operating expenses totaled $409.0 million in 1998, an increase of $7.3 million
or 1.8% from total operating expenses of $401.7 million in 1997.
The following table compares operating expenses per Available Seat Mile ("ASM")

</TABLE>
All fluctuations in operating expenses per ASM were affected by an overall
increase in ASM of approximately 4.3% in 1998 from 1997. Significant year to
year variances were as follows:
Wages and benefits per ASM remained relatively consistent from year to year.
The dilutive effect of increased ASMs was offset by increased wages and
benefits in 1998 of $4.3 million or 3.8% over 1997. Wages and benefits
totaled $118.9 million in 1998 versus $114.6 million in 1997. A majority of
the increase is attributable to additional wages and benefits from increased
flying operations and the accrual for the Company's profit sharing program.
Aircraft fuel, including taxes and oil ("Aircraft Fuel"), per ASM decreased year
over year by 0.27CENTS or 18.8%. The Company incurred $11.5 million or 14.8%
less Aircraft Fuel cost in 1998, the combination of a 3.9% increase in gallons
consumed, a 19.8% decrease in the average cost of aircraft fuel per gallon and
$2.3 million in aggregate realized and unrealized losses on the Company's
Aircraft Fuel derivative financial instruments.
Maintenance materials and repairs per ASM increased by 0.08CENTS or 5.7% in 1998
from 1997. The Company experienced $7.7 million or 10.1% in additional
maintenance principally due to 1) $5.3 million more in DC-10 maintenance expense
from increased utilization of DC-10 aircraft for long-haul flying and 2) $2.3
million more in DC-9 engine repairs.
15
<PAGE>
Rentals and landing fees per ASM decreased by 0.06CENTS or 10.0%. Commencing
September 1, 1997, a two-year moratorium was placed on landing fees at all
airports in the State of Hawaii. The Governor of the State of Hawaii reserved
the right, however, to reinstate the landing fee charges before the two-year
period ends. Under the current moratorium, the Company incurred approximately
$3.9 million less for landing fees in 1998 than in 1997.
Sales commissions per ASM decreased by 0.03CENTS or 12.5%. Sales commissions
decreased by $1.4 million or 10.6% in 1998, principally due to a decrease in the
interline commission rate and an increase in the volume of non-commissionable
tickets sold year over year.
Depreciation and amortization per ASM increased by 0.02CENTS or 10.0%.
Depreciation and amortization totaled $12.6 million in 1998 versus $10.7 million
in 1997. A majority of the $1.9 million or 17.8% increase is due to $1.1 million
and $700,000 in additional depreciation and amortization on ground equipment and
DC-9 overhauls in 1998.
Other operating expenses per ASM increased by 0.09CENTS or 6.4% between 1998 and
1997. The Company incurred approximately $8.4 million or 11.0% of additional
other operating expenses in 1998 over 1997, primarily as a result of additional
aircraft service, advertising and promotion and general and administrative
expenses, including professional and legal fees.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income," which establishes standards for the reporting and display
of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose
financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires reclassification of financial
statements for earlier periods provided for comparative purposes.
In June 1997, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of
an Enterprise and Related Information," which establishes standards for the way
that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in
annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected
information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to
shareholders. SFAS No. 131 requires restatement of comparative information
presented for earlier periods.
In February 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about
Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits," which amends the disclosure
requirements of SFAS No. 87, "Employer's Accounting for Pensions," No. 88,
"Employers' Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit
Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits" and No. 106, "Employers' Accounting
for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." SFAS No. 132 addresses
disclosure only and does not change any of the measurement or recognition
provisions provided for in SFAS Nos. 87, 88 or 106. SFAS No. 132 requires
restatement of comparative information presented for earlier periods.
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and reporting
standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133
requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments
at fair value. SFAS No. 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 1999.
In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Accounting
Standards Executive Committee (the "AcSEC") issued Statement of Position ("SOP")
98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for
Internal Use," which requires that certain costs related to the development or
purchase of internal-use software be capitalized and amortized over the
estimated useful life of the software. SOP 98-1 also requires that costs related
to the preliminary project stage and the post-implementation/operations stage,
as defined, in an internal-use computer software development project be expensed
as incurred. SOP 98-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1998.
In April 1998, the AcSEC issued SOP 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-up
Activities," which requires that
16
<PAGE>
costs incurred during start-up activities, including organization costs, be
expensed as incurred. The provisions of SOP 98-5 are effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1998.
The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS Nos. 130, 131 and 132 effective
January 1, 1998. Adoption of SFAS No. 130 did not result in the reclassification
of comparative financial statement information presented for earlier periods.
Adoption of SFAS No. 131 did not result in a modification to the Company's
reporting segment and accordingly, comparative financial statement information
presented for earlier periods was not restated. The Company's disclosures
regarding pension and other postretirement benefits for prior periods have been
restated to comply with the provisions of SFAS No. 132. Further, management does
not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 133, SOP 98-1 or SOP 98-5 by the respective
required dates to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition,
results of operations, liquidity and/or previously reported financial
information.
1997 COMPARED TO 1996
For the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company generated operating income of
$2.5 million, a $475,000 improvement from 1996 operating income of $2.0 million.
The Company also reduced its net loss before extraordinary items and cumulative
effect of change in accounting principle by $1.7 million to $572,000 in 1997
from $2.3 million in 1996. The Company incurred a net loss of $1.0 million for
the year ended December 31, 1997, a $511,000 improvement from the net loss of
$1.5 million in 1996.

</TABLE>
Interisland passenger revenues decreased by $393,000 or 0.3% to $132.6 million
in 1997 from $133.0 million in 1996. Interisland passenger revenues were
impacted by softness in tourism throughout the State of Hawaii, principally
through the first six months of 1997. The decrease in Interisland passenger
revenues was also caused by less ASM as evidenced by the 6.7% decrease in
available seat miles year over year. The decrease in revenue passengers carried
and RPM, however were offset by a 0.5CENTS or 1.9% increase in yield, the result
of certain price increases initiated in the Interisland market by the Company in
the latter months of 1997.
Transpac passenger revenues totaled $180.4 million in 1997, an increase of $7.0
million or 4.0% over 1996 Transpac passenger revenues of $173.4 million. In
1997, the Company adjusted its Transpac frequencies to particular Transpac
18
<PAGE>
destinations depending on market demand. The Company experienced increases of
8.1% and 6.5% in its passengers carried and RPM, respectively. However, these
increases were offset by a 0.1CENTS or 1.5% decrease in yield reflecting more
aggressive pricing actions taken by the Company to stimulate travel demand and
be competitive, primarily in the second and third quarters of 1997. These
pricing strategies, combined with cooperative advertising and promotions, were
targeted at Transpac markets in which the Company had increased its level of
service and those in which the Company maintained code share alliances.
Overseas charter revenues in 1997 totaled $37.2 million, an increase of $9.3
million from 1996 Overseas charter revenues of $27.8 million. The increase is
attributable to the Company operating on average, eight charters per week to Las
Vegas throughout the first six months of 1997 versus six per week throughout the
first six months of 1996, and from February 1997 to April 1997 and from May 1997
to December 1997, on average, two and one charter rotations per week,
respectively, to Anchorage, Alaska. The Anchorage charters were not operated in
1996.
CARGO
Transpac cargo revenues increased by $1.1 million or 9.2% to $13.0 million in
1997 from $11.9 million in 1996. The increase was primarily due to increased
frequencies in Transpac routes which allowed the Company to transport 1,783 or
9.2% more tons of freight in 1997 compared to 1996.
OTHER OPERATING
Other operating revenues in 1997 totaled $13.6 million, an increase of $3.4
million or 32.9%, primarily due to approximately $2.3 million in additional
revenues related to the promotion of the Company's frequent flyer program and
inflight media and service products.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Operating expenses totaled $401.7 million in 1997, an increase of $19.3 million
or 5.0% from total operating expenses of $382.4 million in 1996.
The following table compares operating expenses per ASM by major category for
1997 with 1996:

</TABLE>
All fluctuations in operating expenses per ASM were affected by an overall
increase in ASM of approximately 6.6% in 1997 from 1996. Significant year to
year variances were as follows:
Wages and benefits per ASM decreased by 0.02CENTS or 0.9%. The dilutive effect
of increased ASM was offset by increased wages and benefits in 1997 of $6.0
million or 5.5% over 1996. Wages and benefits totaled $114.6 million in 1997
versus $108.6 million in 1996. The Company incurred additional customer service,
crew and inflight wages and benefits primarily due to increased long-haul
flying.
19
<PAGE>
Aircraft Fuel per ASM decreased year over year by 0.05CENTS or 3.4%. The effect
of increased ASM was offset by an overall increase in Aircraft Fuel costs of
$2.2 million or 2.9% to $78.1 million in 1997 from $75.9 million in 1996. The
Company incurred $3.5 million in additional costs from the consumption of
approximately 4.5 million or 4.6% more gallons of fuel in 1997 than in 1996 and
$1.1 million in aggregate realized and unrealized losses on the Company's
Aircraft Fuel derivative financial instruments. These additional costs were
offset by a decrease in Aircraft Fuel expense year over year of $2.2 million
resulting from a decrease in the average cost per gallon of 2.2CENTS or 2.9%.
Maintenance materials and repairs per ASM increased by 0.05CENTS or 3.7% in 1997
from 1996. The Company experienced $7.3 million or 10.6% in additional
maintenance principally due to 1) $5.7 million more in DC-10 maintenance expense
as the Company utilized between nine and ten DC-10 aircraft throughout 1997
versus a varying fleet of eight to ten DC-10 aircraft in 1996 due to increased
long-haul frequencies and 2) $1.2 million more in DC-9 airframe and engine
repairs.
Rentals and landing fees per ASM were primarily affected by decreased landing
fees of $2.2 million in 1997. A two-year moratorium was placed on landing fees
at all airports in Hawaii commencing September 1, 1997. The Company had averaged
approximately $500,000 per month in landing fees at airports in the State of
Hawaii prior to the moratorium.
Depreciation and amortization per ASM increased by 0.03CENTS or 17.6%.
Depreciation and amortization totaled $10.7 million in 1997 versus $8.7 million
in 1996. A majority of this $2.0 million or 23.0% increase in 1997 is due to 1)
$1.2 million in additional depreciation and amortization on DC-9 and DC-10
capitalized parts and overhauls and 2) $548,000 in additional depreciation on
DC-9 flight equipment financed through capital leases.
Other operating expenses per ASM is comparable between 1997 and 1996. Other
operating expenses increased by $4.5 million or 6.2% in 1997 compared to 1996
primarily due to $3.7 million in additional catering, ground handling and
personnel expenses from increased long-haul flying.
EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS
In 1996, the Company paid approximately $4.7 million to GPA Group plc and its
affiliate AeroUSA, Inc. to repurchase 827,221 shares of Common Stock and to
repay approximately $4.5 million of long-term debt at a 15.0% discount,
including any deferred costs and other expenses owed. These transactions
resulted in an extraordinary gain, net of income taxes, of approximately
$409,000.
Further, in December 1996, the Company exercised its option to prepay to
American a $10.25 million promissory note secured by certain assets of the
Company (the "American Note"). The Company paid American $9.15 million plus
accrued interest with all liens securing the American Note being released. Early
extinguishment of the American Note resulted in an extraordinary gain, net of
income taxes, of approximately $357,000.
CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE
As promulgated by the FASB's Emerging Issues Task Force, in fourth quarter 1997,
the Company wrote off business process reengineering costs it had previously
capitalized. As discussed below in INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS AND YEAR 2000,
the Company has commenced and committed significant resources to upgrading its
business processes and information technology for strategic and year 2000
positioning. The write-off totaled approximately $450,000, net of income tax
benefit of approximately $300,000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company believes that it has various options available to meet its capital,
debt and operating commitments, including cash and liquid short-term investment
securities on hand at December 31, 1998 of $31.0 million, internally generated
funds and a credit facility with total availability of $11.1 million as of
December 31, 1998, with aggregate term loans and letters of credit outstanding
in the amounts of $4.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The Company
believes that its ability to generate cash, both internally from operations and
externally from debt and equity issues, is adequate to maintain sufficient
liquidity to fund its capital expenditure programs and to cover debt and other
cash requirements in the foreseeable future.
Cash and cash equivalents for the year ended December 31, 1998 increased by
$15.3 million from December 31, 1997. Operating activities for the year ended
December 31, 1998 provided $30.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, primarily
due to the Company generating $17.4 million in operating income. Investing
activities for the year ended December 31, 1998 used $22.8 million of cash and
cash equivalents primarily to acquire property and equipment, including two used
aircraft as discussed below, continued investments in improved software,
hardware and implementation costs and capitalized portions of DC-9 checks and
overhauls. Including the effects of the two used aircraft discussed below, the
Company had estimated its capital expenditures in 1998 to approximate $29.6
million. Financing activities for the year ended December 31, 1998 provided $7.9
million in cash and cash equivalents, principally the result of $7.6 million in
net borrowings related to its debt and capital lease obligations.
The Company estimates that its capital expenditures in 1999 will approximate
$49.8 million. Approximately, $20.8 million is associated with the acquisition
of additional aircraft as discussed below. The remaining $29.0 million
principally represents (1) capitalized portions of DC-9 and DC-10 checks,
overhauls and configurations; (2) improvements in software and related hardware
and airport and office facilities; and (3) purchase of ground equipment and
other assets. Acquisition of additional aircraft is anticipated to be funded
primarily through debt financings. Other authorized expenditures will be funded
through use of available cash and cash equivalents and internally generated
funds.
ROUTES, AIRCRAFT AND EMPLOYEES
In September 1998, the Company announced plans to expand its Transpac operations
by adding in first quarter 1999 four weekly nonstop flights between Los Angeles
and Maui and three weekly flights from Los Angeles to Maui to Kona on the Big
Island of Hawaii. Further, in November 1998, a charter agreement was entered
into with Renaissance Cruises. The two-year agreement provides for approximately
20 round-trip charter flights per month between Los Angeles and Tahiti,
commencing in August 1999. The agreement is estimated to be worth more than $70
million in incremental passenger charter revenue to the Company.
Additional wide-body aircraft will be required to service the additional
Transpac frequencies discussed immediately above. In November 1998, the Company
entered into a purchase agreement for two used DC-10-30 aircraft. As of December
31, 1998, the Company had taken delivery of one of the used DC-10-30 aircraft.
Delivery of the second used DC-10-30 aircraft took place during the first
quarter 1999. Efforts have also commenced to acquire a third DC-10-30 aircraft.
It is anticipated that approximately 280 to 380 additional employees will be
hired to service the new routes.
In December 1998, the Company entered into a purchase agreement to acquire
two used DC-9-50 aircraft in an attempt to maximize its code sharing
arrangements with American and Northwest. The aircraft will be used in the
Interisland market. As of December 31, 1998, one of the used DC-9-50 aircraft
had been acquired. Delivery of the second used DC-9-50 is anticipated in
first quarter 1999.
As stated earlier, the aircraft purchases discussed above have and will be
primarily funded through debt financing. Management continues to assess the
status and alternatives with regard to its DC-10 and DC-9 fleet, including, but
not limited to, the extension of existing leases, exercise of purchase options
and replacement of aircraft.
The Company also has been provisionally awarded authority to commence nonstop
flight operations between Tokyo
21
<PAGE>
and Maui in January 2000. No estimate can be given as to when or if a final
decision awarding the route will be issued by the DOT. A decision by the
Company to progress on operation of the route is subject to a number of
future events, the outcome of which cannot be predicted at this time,
including, in addition to the issuance of a final order from the DOT,
obtaining takeoff and landing slots at the Narita International Airport and
the resolution of litigation over lengthening of the runway in Maui.
WARRANTS
In January 1996, due to its participation in certain recapitalization efforts of
the Company, American's parent company, AMR Corporation ("AMR"), received, among
other things, warrants which, subject to certain conditions and as adjusted
pursuant to applicable anti-dilution provisions, entitled AMR to purchase up to
1,949,338 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "AMR Warrant Shares") at
$1.07 per share. If not exercised, the warrants expire on September 11, 2001.
AMR also retained the right to require the Company, on two occasions, to use its
best efforts to register, at the Company's expense subject to certain
conditions, some or all of the AMR Warrant Shares under the Securities Act of
1993, as amended.
Pursuant to its reorganization in 1994, the Company granted warrants to certain
individuals, which, as adjusted for anti-dilution provisions, entitled such
individuals to purchase 1,618,972 shares of Common Stock (the "Reorganization
Warrant Shares") at $1.67 per share. As of December 31, 1997, all of the
warrants had been exercised.
The AMR Warrant Shares have been included in a registration statement filed by
the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which became effective
on December 31, 1998. Pursuant to piggyback rights, the registration statement
also includes the Reorganization Warrant Shares and 2.2 million shares of Common
Stock owned by Airline Investors Partnership, L.P.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
As of December 31, 1998, the Company utilized crude oil forward contracts to
manage market risks and hedge its financial exposure resulting from fluctuations
in its aircraft fuel costs. The Company employs a strategy whereby crude oil
contracts are used to cover up to 45% of the Company's anticipated aircraft fuel
needs on a rolling 12 month basis.
At December 31, 1998, the Company had petroleum forward contracts to purchase
45,000 barrels of crude oil in the aggregate amount of $722,000 through February
1999. These forward contracts represented approximately 1% of the Company's
anticipated 1999 aircraft fuel needs. At December 31, 1998, the estimated fair
value and carrying value of these outstanding contracts was a net receivable of
$200,000. Included as a component of Aircraft Fuel Cost are net realized and
unrealized losses on such contracts amounting to $2.3 million and $1.1 million
for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
TICKET TAX
In 1997, legislation was enacted to, among other things, gradually reduce the
Federal passenger excise tax from 10% to 7.5% and phase-in a $3 "head tax" per
domestic flight segment by the year 2002. On October 1, 1998, the passenger
excise tax decreased from 9% to 8%, with a correspondent increase in the "head
tax" from $1 to $2 per domestic flight segment. The Company has and will adjust
its fares accordingly due to these enacted tax changes based upon prevailing
market conditions. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
maintain its current fare levels or predict with any certainty the effects on
its fares should the taxes again be adjusted, lapse and/or be reinstated.
22
<PAGE>
FREQUENT FLYER PROGRAM
The Company's HawaiianMiles frequent flyer program was initiated in 1983. As of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, HawaiianMiles had more than 693,000 and 642,000
members, respectively, including approximately 518,000 and 432,000 active
members, respectively.
The HawaiianMiles program allows passengers to earn mileage credits by flying
Hawaiian Airlines and other carriers, particularly Continental and Northwest.
Members may also receive mileage credits pursuant to exchange agreements
maintained by Hawaiian with a variety of entities, including hotels, car rental
firms, credit card issuers and long distance telephone service companies. The
Company also sells mileage credits to other companies participating in the
program.
HawaiianMiles members are entitled to a choice of various awards based on
accumulated mileage, with a majority of the awards being certain free air travel
at a later date. Travel awards available in the HawaiianMiles program range from
a 5,000 mile award, which offers a one-way Interisland flight, to 60,000 and
75,000 mile awards, which offer a round trip first-class Transpac flight and a
round trip first-class Southpac flight, respectively. Miles traveled under the
HawaiianMiles program are accounted for as revenue passenger miles, which, in
turn, are used in the calculation of the Company's yield. Non-travel awards are
valued at the incremental cost of tickets exchanged for such awards.
The Company recognizes a liability in the period in which members have
accumulated sufficient mileage points to allow for award redemption. The
liability is adjusted based on net mileage earned and utilized for award
redemption on a monthly basis. The incremental cost method is used, computed
primarily on the basis of fuel and catering costs, exclusive of any overhead or
profit margin. In estimating the amount of such incremental costs to be accrued
in the liability for potential future HawaiianMiles free travel, a current
average cost per award mile is determined. Incremental fuel expended per
passenger is based on engineering formulas to determine the quantity used for
the weight of each added passenger and baggage. Such incremental quantity of
fuel is priced at current levels. Catering is based on average cost data per
passenger for the most recent 12-month period.
As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, HawaiianMiles members had accumulated
approximately 3.7 billion and 3.0 billion miles, respectively, representing
liabilities totaling approximately $1.1 million. The Company's accruals assume
full redemption of mileage points. During the years ended December 31, 1998,
1997 and 1996, 1.2 billion, 736 million and 857 million award miles were
redeemed, respectively.
The Company believes that the usage of free travel awards will not result in the
displacement of revenue customers and, therefore, such usage will not materially
affect the Company's liquidity or operating results. The use of free travel
awards is subject to review by the Company to limit the possibility of
displacing revenue passengers. HawaiianMiles travel redemption accounted for
approximately 4.1%, 2.4% and 2.9% of Interisland traffic and a negligible
percentage of Transpac and Southpac traffic in 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS AND YEAR 2000
The Company is currently in the process of bringing a number of major
information technology systems on line for strategic purposes as well as to
address issues associated with the year 2000. These information technology
projects are designed to either replace or enhance existing systems, including
local and wide area networks, yield management and all or portions of revenue
and financial accounting. Estimated external costs associated with these efforts
is estimated to approximate $10 to $12 million, of which approximately $8
million had been incurred as of December 31, 1998.
In addition to replacing a number of core information systems, the Company has
recognized the potential impact of the year 2000 on its operations and has
established a dedicated director and Year 2000 Project Office to oversee the
Company's compliance efforts. The Year 2000 Project Office operates on four
tracks including 1) information and communication systems; 2) hardware; 3)
business partnerships; and 4) government and externalities. Each track utilizes
the Federal General Accounting Office methodology and available best practices.
The strategy is to create a comprehensive review of mission critical systems as
they apply to the continuum of Hawaiian Airlines' business operations.
23
<PAGE>
STATE OF READINESS
The Company has and continues to perform constant awareness activities through
regular informational briefings and newsletter updates, formal briefs of
management and senior management, and the development of "personal Y2K kits" for
all employees to address their concerns. The Company has initiated public
relations activities, and is working with the Air Transport Association (the
"ATA") on a coordinated industry effort.
The Company has inventoried all of its hardware and software applications and is
in the process of formally documenting its inventory assessments. Applications
and hardware configurations of computers operating on the Company's networks
have been audited using automated tools, and standalone machines will be
subjected to the same detailed audits.
Remediation of legacy systems is well underway with completion of all
remediation expected before April 30, 1999. Hawaiian has contracted with
external vendors to assist in its testing efforts and is currently developing
the requisite background information prior to testing.
The Company continues an aggressive business partner management program and is
in the process of following up with vital and important vendors via telephone
survey. Critical vendors not covered under the ATA effort are planned for site
visit by Hawaiian Airlines personnel.
Hardware assessments have found a very small amount of equipment being date
aware, with no systems yet identified as requiring remediation. Currently, the
Company believes that all mission critical systems will be remediated and tested
by a target milestone of mid-1999.
ESTIMATED COSTS TO ADDRESS YEAR 2000 ISSUES
Because a substantial portion of the Company's information systems are being
replaced by new applications that are represented to be Year 2000 compliant, the
Company's remaining Year 2000 issues are primarily related to remediation of
legacy code and assistance in conducting Year 2000 testing. The Company
estimates that it will expend $1 to $2 million for such remediation and testing.
This will be in addition to the $10 to $12 million for replacement of the
Company's information systems as described above.
CONTINGENCY PLANS FOR HAWAIIAN AIRLINES
In addition to its normal operational disaster recovery plans, Hawaiian Airlines
will be including Year 2000 specific activities. To this end, the Company has
established a dedicated position for the coordination of contingency plans.
While the Company believes that all systems will be Year 2000 ready, all
critical, vital, and important systems will have appropriate contingency plans
developed to address complete and partial systems failure. Contingency plans are
expected to be completed in May of 1999.
RISKS OF YEAR 2000 ISSUES
Preliminary reviews of flight systems have found little potential impact of Year
2000 issues, and existing contingency plans and training address the loss of
most affected operations systems. The primary risks to Hawaiian Airlines are
those of business continuity. The Company is aggressively addressing both its
supply and revenue chains to assess, to the best of the Company's knowledge,
that both products and business operations of its partners are not adversely
affected by the Year 2000 problem.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company's business, financial condition or
results of operations could be materially adversely affected by the failure of
its systems or, which the Company believes is the most reasonably likely worst
case scenario, failure of those systems operated by third parties on which the
Company's business relies (including those of the Federal Aviation
Administration) to operate properly beyond 1999. There can be no assurance that
such systems will be modified for Year 2000 operational requirements on a timely
basis. Because of the variables associated with the year 2000 date problem,
management cannot give assurance that in-progress
24
<PAGE>
system transitions will be sufficient or assure that the Company will not be
affected by the year 2000 issue in some form or manner.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related statements of operations,
shareholders' equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the
years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1998. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1998 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. ("Hawaiian Airlines" or the "Company") was incorporated
in January 1929 under the laws of the Territory of Hawaii and is the largest
airline headquartered in Hawaii, based on operating revenues of $426.4 million
for 1998. The Company is engaged primarily in the scheduled transportation of
passengers, cargo and mail. The Company's passenger airline business is its
chief source of revenue. Scheduled passenger service consists of, on average
and depending on seasonality, approximately 130 to 150 flights per day among the
six major islands of the State of Hawaii ("Interisland"), daily service to Las
Vegas and four key United States ("U.S.") West Coast gateway cities
("Transpac"), twice weekly service to Pago Pago, American Samoa and weekly
service to Papeete, Tahiti in the South Pacific ("Southpac"). In 1998, the
Company also operated, on average, six charter flights per week to Las Vegas and
two charter rotations per week to Anchorage ("Overseas Charter"). The Company
operates a fleet consisting of DC-9 aircraft and DC-10 aircraft.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all investments purchased with an original maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents. Short-term cash equivalent
investments at December 31, 1998 and 1997 were valued at cost and amounted to
$27.0 million and $11.6 million, respectively.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
Investment securities at December 31, 1997 consist of U.S. Treasury and
mortgage-backed securities. The Company classifies its debt securities as
available-for-sale with such securities recorded at cost, which approximates
fair-value. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related tax effect,
on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and are reported as
a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until
realized. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale
securities are determined on a specific identification basis. A decline in the
market value of any available-for-sale security below cost that is deemed to be
other than temporary results in a reduction in carrying amount to fair value.
The impairment is charged to earnings and a new cost basis for the security is
established. Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of
the related available-for-sale security as an adjustment to yield using the
effective interest method. Dividend and interest income are recognized when
earned.
INVENTORIES
Inventories consisting of flight equipment expendable parts and supplies are
stated at average cost, less an allowance for obsolescence.
ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
Assets held for sale consisting of expendable inventory parts and rotable flight
equipment are stated at the lower of average cost or net realizable value for
expendable inventory parts and the lower of average cost or fair value less cost
to sell for rotable flight equipment. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the
Company had approximately $3.5 million and $5.3 million, respectively, of
expendable inventory parts and rotable flight equipment held for sale internally
or on a consignment basis with a third party.
F-9
<PAGE>
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Owned property and equipment are stated at cost. Costs of major improvements
are capitalized. Depreciation and amortization are provided on a straight-line
basis over the following estimated useful lives:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Flight equipment. . . . . . . . . . 4-15 years, 15% residual value
Ground equipment. . . . . . . . . . 5-15 years
Airport terminal facility . . . . . 30 years
Buildings . . . . . . . . . . . . . 15-20 years
Leasehold improvements. . . . . . . Shorter of lease term or useful life
</TABLE>
Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred, except that (1)
costs of overhauling engines are charged to operations in the year the engines
are removed for overhaul and (2) scheduled heavy airframe overhauls and major
structural modifications on DC-9 aircraft are recorded under the deferral method
whereby the cost of overhaul is capitalized and amortized over the shorter of
the period benefited or the lease term. Additionally, provision is made for the
estimated cost of scheduled heavy airframe overhauls required to be performed on
leased DC-9 aircraft prior to their return to lessors. Maintenance and repairs
on DC-10 aircraft are charged to operations on a flight hour basis.
In 1997, the Company commenced concentrated efforts to update its information
technology systems for strategic reasons. Direct external costs subsequent to
the preliminary stage of these projects are capitalized as property and
equipment. Capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the
estimated useful life of each installation or module once it is complete and
ready for its intended use.
REORGANIZATION VALUE IN EXCESS OF AMOUNTS ALLOCABLE TO IDENTIFIABLE ASSETS
The Company emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy on September 12, 1994 (the
"Effective Date") with Hawaiian Airlines being the sole surviving corporation.
Under fresh start reporting, the reorganization value of the entity was
allocated to the Company's assets and liabilities on a basis substantially
consistent with the purchase method of accounting. The portion of
reorganization value not attributable to specific tangible or identifiable
intangible assets of the Company is reflected as reorganization value in excess
of amounts allocable to identifiable assets ("Excess Reorganization Value") in
the accompanying balance sheets. Excess Reorganization Value is amortized on a
straight-line basis over 20 years. Accumulated amortization at December 31,
1998 and 1997 totaled approximately $15.0 million and $11.7 million,
respectively. The estimated income tax benefit from the expected utilization of
net operating loss carryforwards arising prior to the Effective Date has also
been applied as a reduction to Excess Reorganization Value. The Company will
continue to assess and evaluate whether the remaining useful life of the asset
requires revision or, through the use of estimated future undiscounted cash
flows over the remaining life of the asset, whether the remaining balance of the
asset is recoverable. The assessment of the recoverability of the unamortized
amount will be impacted if estimated future operating cash flows are not
achieved.
ACCRUED VACATION LIABILITY
Accrued vacation in excess of the amount expected to be taken by employees
during the following year is classified as a noncurrent liability.
FREQUENT FLYER AWARDS
A liability for frequent flyer awards is recognized on the incremental cost
basis in the period during which passengers have accumulated sufficient mileage
for award redemption. Incremental costs primarily include fuel and catering.
PASSENGER REVENUES
Passenger fares are recorded as operating revenues when the transportation is
provided. The value of unused passenger tickets is included as air traffic
liability.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments comprised of crude oil
forward and options contracts to manage market risks and hedge its exposure to
fluctuations in its aircraft fuel costs. Realized and unrealized changes
F-10
<PAGE>
in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments are recognized in
income in the period in which the change occurs. The Company's practice is
to not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating
loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The
effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
STOCK OPTION PLANS
The Company applies the intrinsic value-based method of accounting prescribed by
Accounting Principles Board (the "APB") No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees," in accounting for its fixed stock options. As such, compensation
cost is recorded on the date of grant only if the current market price of the
underlying stock exceeds the exercise price.
EARLY EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT
In 1996, the Company paid approximately $4.7 million to GPA Group plc and its
affiliate AeroUSA, Inc. to repurchase 827,221 shares of Common Stock and to
repay approximately $4.5 million of long-term debt at a 15.0% discount,
including any deferred costs and other expenses owed. These transactions
resulted in an extraordinary gain, net of income taxes, of approximately
$409,000.
Further, in December 1996, the Company exercised its option to prepay to
American Airlines, Inc. ("American") a $10.25 million promissory note secured by
certain assets of the Company (the "American Note"). The Company paid American
$9.15 million plus accrued interest with all liens securing the American Note
being released. Early extinguishment of the American Note resulted in an
extraordinary gain, net of income taxes, of approximately $357,000.
BUSINESS PROCESS REENGINEERING COSTS
As promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (the "FASB")
Emerging Issues Task Force, in fourth quarter 1997, the Company wrote off
business process reengineering costs which had been incurred and capitalized in
the implementation of information technology projects. The write-off totaled
approximately $450,000, net of income tax benefit of approximately $300,000 and
is reflected as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle in the
accompanying statements of operations.
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share represents income available to common shareholders
divided by the weighted average number of Common Stock shares outstanding for
the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that
could occur if securities or other contracts to issue Common Stock shares were
exercised or converted into Common Stock shares or resulted in the issuance of
Common Stock shares that then shared in the earnings of the Company.
Outstanding rights, warrants and options to purchase shares of the Company's
Common Stock are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share
if inclusion of these rights, warrants and options is antidilutive. For 1998,
1997 and 1996, options and warrants to purchase approximately 1.4 million, 2.5
million and 4.0 million shares of Common Stock, respectively, were outstanding,
but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share as inclusion
of these options and warrants would be antidilutive. See Note 9.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
F-11
<PAGE>
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change
relate to the determination of air traffic liability, accruals for loss
contingencies and the amounts reported for accumulated pension and other
postretirement benefit obligations. Management believes that such estimates have
been appropriately established in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.
SEGMENT INFORMATION
Due to the centralization of the Company's operations in the State of Hawaii and
the interdependence of its routes, management considers its operations to be one
industry segment.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain prior year amounts were reclassified to conform to the 1998
presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on previously reported
financial condition and/or results of operations.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which establishes standards
for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a
full set of general-purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires
reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods provided for
comparative purposes.
In June 1997, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of
an Enterprise and Related Information," which establishes standards for the way
that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in
annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected
information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to
shareholders. SFAS No. 131 requires restatement of comparative information
presented for earlier periods.
In February 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about
Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits," which amends the disclosure
requirements of SFAS No. 87, "Employer's Accounting for Pensions," No. 88,
"Employers' Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit
Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits" and No. 106, "Employers' Accounting
for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." SFAS No. 132 addresses
disclosure only and does not change any of the measurement or recognition
provisions provided for in SFAS Nos. 87, 88 or 106. SFAS No. 132 requires
restatement of comparative information presented for earlier periods.
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and reporting
standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133
requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments
at fair value. SFAS No. 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 1999.
In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Accounting
Standards Executive Committee (the "AcSEC") issued Statement of Position ("SOP")
98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for
Internal Use," which requires that certain costs related to the development or
purchase of internal-use software be capitalized and amortized over the
estimated useful life of the software. SOP 98-1 also requires that costs
related to the preliminary project stage and the post-implementation/operations
stage, as defined, in an internal-use computer software development project be
expensed as incurred. SOP 98-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1998.
In April 1998, the AcSEC issued SOP 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-up
Activities," which requires that costs incurred during start-up activities,
including organization costs, be expensed as incurred. The provisions of SOP
98-5 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998.
F-12
<PAGE>
The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS Nos. 130, 131 and 132 effective
January 1, 1998. Adoption of SFAS No. 130 did not result in the
reclassification of comparative financial statement information presented for
earlier periods. Adoption of SFAS No. 131 did not result in a modification to
the Company's reporting segment and accordingly, comparative financial statement
information presented for earlier periods was not restated. The Company's
disclosures regarding pension and other postretirement benefits for prior
periods have been restated to comply with the provisions of SFAS No. 132.
Further, management does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 133, SOP 98-1 or
SOP 98-5 by the respective required dates to have a material impact on the
Company's financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and/or
previously reported financial information.
3. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUES
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts
payable and other accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short
maturity of those instruments. The carrying amount of notes receivable from
Common Stock sales approximates fair value as the terms of such instruments are
reflective of terms offered for similar instruments of comparable maturities.
The cost of investment securities held at December 31, 1997, consisting of U.S.
Treasury and mortgage-backed securities amounted to $3.0 million and $1.0
million, respectively, which approximates fair value. Investment securities
held at December 31, 1997 are classified as available-for-sale and were sold
during 1998. Realized gains and losses from the sale of such securities were
not material in 1998 or 1997.
The estimated fair values of long-term debt amounted to $17.6 million and $6.3
million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. These fair values were
estimated by discounting the future cash flow requirements of each instrument at
rates currently offered at the respective year-end dates to the Company for
similar debt instruments of comparable maturities.
In 1997, the Company began utilizing derivative financial instruments comprised
of crude oil forward and options contracts to hedge its financial exposure
resulting from fluctuations in its aircraft fuel costs. At December 31, 1998,
the Company had petroleum forward contracts to purchase 45,000 barrels of crude
oil in the aggregate amount of $722,000 through February 1999. The estimated
fair value and carrying value of these outstanding contracts was a net
receivable of $200,000 at December 31, 1998. Realized and unrealized losses on
such contracts amounted to $2.3 million and $1.1 million in 1998 and 1997,
respectively, and are included as a component of aircraft fuel expense. The
estimated fair value of these contracts are based on quoted market prices and
generally have maturities of one year or less. The contracts are either
exchanged or traded with counterparties of high credit quality; therefore, the
risk of non-performance by the counterparties is considered to be negligible.
4. FLIGHT EQUIPMENT
All of the Company's aircraft are leased except for one DC-10 and three DC-9s.
At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the composition of the Company's aircraft fleet
is as follows:

In November 1998, the Company entered into a purchase agreement for two used
DC-10-30 aircraft. As of December 31, 1998, the Company had taken delivery of
one DC-10-30 aircraft. Delivery of the second DC-10-30 aircraft took place
during the first quarter 1999, subject to long term debt financing to be in
place by the end of the first quarter 1999. Efforts have also commenced to
acquire a third DC-10-30.
In December 1998, the Company entered into a purchase agreement to acquire two
used DC-9-50 aircraft. The aircraft will be used in the Interisland market. At
December 31, 1998, the first DC-9-50 had been delivered. Delivery of the second
DC-9-50 is anticipated in first quarter 1999.

At December 31, 1998, the Company had purchase commitments for one DC-10-30
aircraft and one DC-9-50 aircraft in an aggregate amount of approximately $15
million.
5. LEASES
AIRCRAFT LEASES
Ten DC-10 aircraft are leased from American under operating leases which expire
in 2001. Effective January 31, 1996, the Company and American agreed to a
reduction in basic rents due on DC-10 operating leases by approximately 28%
through January 31, 1999, at which time such rents revert to their original
levels. Rent has been expensed under the straight line method. Five and six
DC-9 aircraft and related flight equipment are leased under operating and
capital leases, respectively, for various periods through the year 2004. Most
of the operating leases for DC-9 aircraft include renewal options and fair
market value purchase options at the end of the lease period.
OTHER LEASES
The Company leases office space for its headquarters, airport facilities, ticket
offices and certain ground equipment in varying terms to 2008.
GENERAL
Rent expense for aircraft, office space, real property and other equipment
during 1998, 1997 and 1996 was $28.4 million, $26.6 million and $26.7 million,
respectively, net of sublease rental income from operating leases of $66,000,
$50,000 and $102,000, respectively.
Scheduled future minimum lease commitments under operating and capital leases
for the Company as of December 31, 1998, in thousands, are as follows:

property held under capital leases is included in depreciation and amortization
expense in the accompanying statements of operations.
6. DEBT
At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company's long-term debt consists of the
following, in thousands:
<TABLE>

Long-term debt obligations, excluding current portion $ 14,454 $ 3,991
----------------- -----------------
----------------- -----------------
</TABLE>
Secured obligations due 1999-2005 are as follows:
(1) A promissory note executed in 1998 for the acquisition of a used DC-10-30
aircraft. The note is secured by lien on the aircraft, as described in the
security agreement. The note is due in 2005 and is payable in monthly
installments of principal and interest of $131,553. Interest accrues at
8.15% per annum. At December 31, 1998, $8.4 million was outstanding;
(2) A promissory note executed in 1998 for the acquisition of a used DC-9-50
aircraft. The note is secured by first priority liens on the aircraft,
other collateral as described in the security agreement and a $1.0 million
letter of credit issued under the Credit Facility defined below. The note
is due in 2005 and is payable in monthly installments of principal and
interest ranging from $78,039 to $34,673. Interest accrues at 8.95% per
annum. At December 31, 1998, $4.3 million was outstanding;
(3) A secured note executed in 1993 for the purchase of a DC-9 aircraft from a
lessor. The mortgage note is due in 1999 and is payable in monthly
installments of principal and interest of $59,876. Interest accrues at
10.315% per annum. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, $405,000 and $1.0
million, respectively, were outstanding;
(4) The Company maintains a Credit Facility with CIT Group/Credit Finance, Inc.
(the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility consists of two secured term
loans and a secured revolving line of credit including up to $6.0 million
of letters of credit. The term loans will amortize in equal installments
over periods of 48 and 60 months, respectively. The outstanding principal
amounts of the term loans will become due and payable upon termination of
the Credit Facility. Available credit is subject to change determined by
recalculation of the borrowing base, repayments due under the term loans
and repayments arising from the disposition and other changes in the
related collateral securing the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility has an
initial term of three years from April 29, 1996 and renews automatically
for successive terms of two years each, unless terminated by either party
on at least 60 days notice prior to the end of the then-current term.
Interest accrues at prime plus 2.0% (8.16% at December 31, 1998). The
Company may terminate the Credit Facility at any time, on 30 days notice
and payment of certain early termination fees during the initial term and
without termination fees during any renewal term.
As of December 31, 1998, the total availability under the Credit Facility
was $11.1 million with aggregate term loans and letters of credit
outstanding in the amounts of $4.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively.
As of December 31, 1997, the total availability under the Credit Facility
was $11.9 million with aggregate term loans and letters of credit
outstanding in the amounts of $5.2 million and $100,000, respectively.
The Credit Facility is secured by a first lien on substantially all of the
Company's property, excluding the Company's owned and leased aircraft, the
Company's aircraft engines while installed on an aircraft and certain
F-15
<PAGE>
security deposits. In addition, terms of the Credit Facility restrict the
Company from paying any cash or stock dividends on its Common Stock.
Other obligations paid in 1998 represented priority tax claims for various
taxing jurisdictions recognized upon the Company's emergence from Chapter 11
bankruptcy. The obligations bore interest at 7.0% per annum and were payable in
24 quarterly installments commencing on the first anniversary of the Effective
Date.
Maturities of long-term debt for the Company, including those estimated for the
Credit Facility, as of December 31, 1998, in thousands, are as follows:

7. INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense is based on an estimated annual effective tax rate, which
differs from the federal statutory rate of 35% in 1998 and 34% in 1997 and 1996,
primarily due to state income taxes and certain nondeductible expenses. The
Company's reorganization and the associated implementation of fresh start
reporting gave rise to significant items of expense for financial reporting
purposes that are not deductible for income tax purposes.
The estimated income tax benefit from the expected utilization of net operating
loss carryforwards arising prior to the Effective Date has been, and will
continue to be, applied as a reduction to Excess Reorganization Value, not as a
reduction to income tax expense. While generally accepted accounting principles
require that a provision for income tax be recorded, a majority of the provision
for 1998, 1997 and 1996 will not require cash outlay as it will be offset by net
operating loss carryforwards available to the Company. As noted, in 1998 and in
1997 and 1996, approximately $7.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of
estimated income tax benefit from the expected utilization of these net
operating loss carryforwards has been applied as a reduction to Excess
Reorganization Value.
Income tax expense in 1998, 1997 and 1996 differs from the "expected" tax
expense (benefit) for that year computed by applying the respective year's U.S.
federal corporate income tax rate to income (loss) before income taxes,
extraordinary items and cumulative effect of change in accounting principle as
follows:

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions
of the Company's deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at December

</TABLE>
The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of January 1, 1998, 1997 and
1996 was $34.1 million, $35.3 million and $47.2 million, respectively. The net
change in the total valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 1998,
1997 and 1996 were decreases of $12.6 million, $1.2 million and $11.9 million,
respectively. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management
considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the
deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred
tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the
periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management
considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future
taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.
The Company underwent an ownership change in January 1996, as defined under
Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC Section 382"). IRC Section 382
places an annual limitation on the amount of income that can be offset by net
operating loss carryforwards generated in pre-ownership change years. The
ownership change resulted in an IRC Section 382 limitation of approximately $1.7
million plus certain "built-in" income items. This new limitation applies to
all net operating losses incurred prior to the ownership change. As of December
31, 1998, the Company has total net operating loss carryovers of approximately
$33.4 million to offset future taxable income. If not utilized to offset future
taxable income, the net operating loss carryforwards will expire between the
years 2003 and 2009. If, in future years, the Company were to recognize income
tax benefit from the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards arising
prior to the Effective Date, such benefit will be applied as a reduction to
Excess Reorganization Value.
8. BENEFIT PLANS
DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS
The Company sponsors three defined benefit pension plans covering its Air Line
Pilots Association, International ("ALPA"), International Association of
Machinists and Aerospace Workers (AFL-CIO) ("IAM") and salaried personnel. The
plans for the IAM and salaried employees were frozen effective October 1, 1993.
As a result of the freeze, there will be no further benefit accruals and no
additional participants in those plans. Pension cost for the pilots plan is
funded on a current basis based on the amortization of prior service cost over
20 years. Funding for the ground personnel plans is based on minimum Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 requirements. Plan assets
F-17
<PAGE>
consist primarily of common stocks, government and convertible securities,
insurance contract deposits and cash management and mutual funds.
In addition to providing pension benefits, the Company sponsors two unfunded
defined benefit postretirement medical and life insurance plans. Employees in
the Company's pilot group are eligible for certain medical and life insurance
benefits under one plan if they become disabled or reach normal retirement age
while working for the Company. Employees in the Company's non-pilot group are
eligible for certain medical benefits under another plan if they meet specified
age and service requirements at the time of retirement.
The following tables summarize changes to benefit obligations, plan assets,
funded status and amounts included in the accompanying balance sheets as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, in thousands:

respectively. At December 31, 1996, the discount rate and rate of
compensation increase for other benefits was 7.75% and 4.5%, respectively.
The rate of compensation increase is not applicable to the frozen plans. At
December 31, 1998, the health care cost trend rate was assumed to increase by
7.3% for 1999 and decrease gradually to 4.0% over 7 years and remain level
thereafter.

OTHER BENEFIT PLANS
The Company sponsors separate deferred compensation plans (401(k)) for its
pilots, flight attendants and ground and salaried personnel. Participating
employer cash contributions are not required under the terms of the pilots'
plan. The Company is required to contribute up to 7.0% of defined compensation
pursuant to the terms of the flight attendants' plan. Contributions to the
flight attendants' plan are funded currently and totaled approximately $1.3
million in 1998 and $1.1 million in 1997 and 1996, respectively. The Company is
also required to contribute 4.0% of eligible earnings to the ground and salaried
plan for eligible employees as defined by the plan. Contributions to the ground
and salaried 401(k) plan totaled $2.0 million, $1.8 million and $1.6 million in
1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
The Company further sponsors a profit sharing plan, which provides all employees
(other than senior management) with cash bonuses if the Company achieves certain
pre-tax profit levels. At December 31, 1998, the Company has provided for
approximately $760,000 under the provisions of the profit sharing plan, with
distribution of the amounts, as defined by the plan, to occur in first quarter
1999.
9. CAPITAL STOCK, WARRANTS, RIGHTS AND OPTIONS
AUTHORIZED CAPITAL STOCK
As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the authorized capital stock of the Company
consists of 60,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, and
2,000,000 shares of Special Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share.
Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company is restricted from paying
any cash or stock dividends. No dividends were paid by the Company in 1998 or
1997.
F-19
<PAGE>
SPECIAL PREFERRED STOCK
Four shares of Series B Special Preferred Stock are owned by Airline
Investors Partnership, L.P. ("AIP") with such shares entitling AIP to
nominate directors. The Association of Flight Attendants ("AFA"), IAM and
ALPA each hold one share of Series C Special Preferred Stock, Series D
Special Preferred Stock and Series E Special Preferred Stock, respectively,
(collectively the "Special Preferred Stock") which entitle each union to
nominate one director. The holders of each series of the Special Preferred
Stock are entitled to fill a vacancy on the Board of Directors caused by the
removal, resignation or death of a director nominated by that series if the
Board fails to fill such vacancy within 30 days. AIP has agreed with each of
IAM, ALPA and AFA that so long as the right to have a representative on the
Board is in its respective collective bargaining agreement, AIP will vote its
shares in favor of such union's nominee for the Board of Directors. In
addition to the rights described above, the Special Preferred Stock (1) is
senior to Common Stock and each series is PARI PASSU with each other with
respect to rights on liquidation, dissolution and winding up and will be
entitled to receive $.01 per share, and no more, before any payments are made
to holders of any stock ranking junior to the Special Preferred Stock; (2)
has no dividend rights other than at any time that a dividend is declared and
paid on the Common Stock dividends in an amount per share equal to twice the
dividend per share paid on the Common Stock will be paid on the Special
Preferred Stock; (3) is entitled to one vote per share and votes with the
Common Stock as a single class on all matters submitted to the shareholders
of the Company; (4) automatically converts into one share of Common Stock
upon the transfer of such share from the person to whom originally issued to
any person that is not an affiliate of such person; and (5) does not have
preemptive rights in connection with future issuances of the Company's
capital stock.
SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN
In December 1994, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized adoption
of a shareholder rights plan (the "Rights Plan") pursuant to which there
would be attached to each share of Common Stock of the Company one preferred
stock purchase right (a "PSP Right"). The Rights Plan, as amended, provides
that in the event any person (with certain exceptions) becomes the beneficial
owner of 15.0% or more of the outstanding common shares, each PSP Right
(other than a PSP Right held by the 15.0% shareholder) will be exercisable,
on and after the close of business on the tenth business day following such
event, to purchase Hawaiian Airlines Common Stock at 50% of the market value
of such stock. The Rights Plan further provides that if, on or after the
occurrence of such event, the Company is merged into any other corporation or
50.0% or more of the Company's assets or earning power are sold, each PSP
Right (other than a PSP Right held by the 15.0% shareholder) will be
exercisable to purchase common shares of the acquiring corporation at 50% of
the market value of such stock. The PSP Rights expire on December 1, 2004
(unless previously triggered) and are subject to redemption by the Company
at $0.01 per PSP Right at any time prior to the first date upon which they
become exercisable.
WARRANTS
In January 1996, due to its participation in certain recapitalization efforts
of the Company, American's parent company, AMR Corporation ("AMR"), received,
among other things, warrants (the "AMR Warrants") which, subject to certain
conditions, entitled AMR to purchase up to 1,949,338 shares of the Company's
Common Stock at $1.07 per share, as adjusted pursuant to applicable
anti-dilution provisions. One-half of the warrants were exercisable
immediately and the remaining one-half were to become exercisable only if
American and the Company entered into a code sharing arrangement. In July
1997, the Company consummated the code share marketing agreement with
American. All of the warrants became exercisable upon implementation of the
code share agreement with American on March 2, 1998. If not exercised, the
warrants expire on September 11, 2001. The estimated fair value of the
codeshare agreement and the underlying warrants approximated $2.3 million and
has been reflected in the accompanying balance sheets as warrants and other
assets. The amount included in other assets is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over five years from the implementation date of the code
share agreement.
Pursuant to its reorganization in 1994, the Company granted warrants to
certain individuals (the "Reorganization Warrants"), which entitled such
individuals to purchase 1,618,972 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price
of $1.67 per share, as adjusted for applicable anti-dilution provisions. As
of December 31, 1997, all Reorganization Warrants to purchase 1,618,972
shares of Common Stock had been exercised.

STOCK OPTION PLANS
Under the 1994 Stock Option Plan, 600,000 shares of Common Stock were
reserved for grants of options to officers and key employees of the Company.
Under the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended, 4,500,000 shares of Common
Stock were reserved for issuance of discretionary grants of options to the
Company's employees. The Company also has a 1996 Nonemployee Director Stock
Option Plan which reserves 500,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance and
grants of options to members of the Board of Directors. Stock options are
granted with an exercise price equal to the Common Stock's fair market value
at the date of grant, generally vest over a period of four years and expire,
if not previously exercised, 10 years from the date of grant.
Stock option activity during the periods indicated is as follows:

At December 31, 1998, the range of exercise prices and weighted-average
remaining contractual lives of outstanding options was $1.62 to $4.06 and 7.8
years, respectively.
At December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, the number of options exercisable was
252,000, 322,500 and 485,000, respectively, with weighted-average exercise
prices of $3.14, $2.53 and $2.36, respectively.
The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for stock options. Had
the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the grant
date of the respective options under SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income
(loss) would have been reduced or increased to the pro forma amounts
indicated below:

The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during
1998, 1997 and 1996 was $1.78, $1.81 and $0.79, respectively, on the date of
grant using a Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following
weighted-average assumptions:

Pro forma net income (loss) reflects only options granted since December 31,
1995. Therefore, the full impact of calculating compensation cost for stock
options under SFAS No. 123 is not reflected in the pro forma net income
(loss) amounts presented above because compensation cost is reflected over
the various options' vesting periods and compensation cost for options
granted prior to January 1, 1996 is not considered.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
LITIGATION AND CONTINGENCIES
All claims asserted against the Company for alleged prepetition and/or
administrative claims on or before the Effective Date of the Company's
reorganization have been resolved utilizing reserved Common Stock shares and
the Company's Chapter 11 Bankruptcy proceeding has been closed.
The Company is party to several other claims and legal actions. Also, the
Company is involved in discussions with the State of Hawaii regarding general
excise tax as it relates to leased aircraft. The matter is subject to
continued discussion with no discernable amounts and/or arguments at this
time. In the opinion of management, and after consultation with legal
counsel, the Company believes that the ultimate disposition of these matters
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations or
financial condition.
AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE
Maintenance on the Company's DC-10 aircraft fleet is performed by American in
accordance with the Federal Aviation Administration's (the "FAA") regulations
and Hawaiian Airlines' approved maintenance program.
The Company anticipates that in the period 1999 through 2001, eight of its
DC-9 aircraft will require heavy airframe overhaul checks (the "C5-Check",
previously referred to as a D-Check). The C5-Check for a DC-9 requires more
than 20,000 man-hours of maintenance work and includes stripping the
airframe, extensively testing the airframe structure and a large number of
parts and components, and reassembling the overhauled airframe with new or
rebuilt components. The Company anticipates each C5-Check to cost
approximately $1.0 million.
The FAA has and is expected to continue to require structural modifications
and the replacement of certain parts, as well as the implementation of
additional maintenance programs or changes to current programs, with respect
to various types of aircraft over a certain age. These requirements vary,
depending on the type of aircraft covered. Based on information currently
available, the Company estimates that the total cost of complying with the
aging aircraft requirements over the 1999 through 2003 period will
approximate $660,000 per DC-9 aircraft.
The Company expects to incur approximately $100,000 per DC-9 aircraft per
year for maintenance required under a corrosion prevention and control
program. This program is anticipated to continue indefinitely in the future.
The FAA has mandated the installation of smoke detection and fire suppression
systems in the cargo compartments of both DC-10 and DC-9 aircraft by December
2000. The cost for systems and installation is estimated to be $130,000 and
$83,000 per each DC-10 and DC-9 aircraft, respectively.
As a result of certain incidents where Digital Flight Data Recorder ("DFDR")
information was insufficient to determine the cause of the accident, the FAA
has also mandated additional recording parameters for the DC-10 and DC-9
aircraft by the first heavy maintenance check after August 1999 but no later
than August 2001. The DC-10 DFDR will be upgraded from 17 to 22 parameters
at an estimated cost of $60,000 per aircraft. The DC-9 DFDR will be upgraded
from 11 to 18 parameters at an estimated cost of $47,000 per aircraft.
During the period from 1999 through 2003, the Company anticipates continued
implementation of its supplemental inspection document program for certain of
its DC-9 aircraft, which is estimated to range up to $27,000 per aircraft.
The estimated future cost of complying with FAA regulations as discussed in
the preceding paragraphs will be in addition to the costs of the Company's
current DC-10 and DC-9 fleet maintenance programs.
LOS ANGELES AIRPORT OPERATING TERMINAL
On December 1, 1985, the Company entered into an interline agreement with
other airlines for, among other things, the sharing of costs, expenses and
certain liabilities related to the acquisition, construction and renovation
of certain passenger terminal facilities at the Los Angeles International
Airport ("Facilities"). Current tenants and participating members of LAX Two
Corporation (the "Corporation"), a mutual benefit corporation, are jointly
and severally obligated to pay their share of debt service payments related
to Facilities Sublease Revenue Bonds issued to finance the acquisition,
construction and renovation of the Facilities which totaled $111.9 million at
completion. The Corporation
F-23
<PAGE>
leases the Facilities from the Regional Airports Improvement Corporation
under a lease agreement. In addition, the Corporation is also obligated to
make annual payments to the city of Los Angeles for charges related to its
terminal ground rental. All leases of the Corporation are accounted for as
operating leases with related future commitments as of December 31, 1998
amounting to approximately $214.5 million. Rent expense relating to these
operating leases totaled $4.9 million, $5.0 million and $4.8 million in 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively.
Member airlines pay the expenses associated with the Facilities on a prorata
share basis calculated primarily upon their respective numbers of passengers
utilizing the Facilities. The Company accounts for its obligation under this
agreement as an operating lease and incurred $592,000, $338,000 and $750,000
of rent expense in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
FREQUENT FLYER PROGRAM
The Company's HawaiianMiles frequent flyer program was initiated in 1983. As
of December 31, 1998 and 1997, HawaiianMiles had more than 693,000 and
642,000 members, respectively, including approximately 518,000 and 432,000
active members, respectively.
The HawaiianMiles program allows passengers to earn mileage credits by flying
Hawaiian Airlines and other carriers, particularly Continental Airlines, Inc.
and Northwest Airlines, Inc. ("Northwest"). Members may also receive mileage
credits pursuant to exchange agreements maintained by Hawaiian with a variety
of entities, including hotels, car rental firms, credit card issuers and long
distance telephone service companies. The Company also sells mileage credits
to other companies participating in the program.
HawaiianMiles members are entitled to a choice of various awards based on
accumulated mileage, with a majority of the awards being certain free air
travel at a later date. Travel awards available in the HawaiianMiles program
range from a 5,000 mile award, which offers a one-way Interisland flight, to
60,000 and 75,000 mile awards, which offer a round trip first-class Transpac
flight and round trip first-class Southpac flight, respectively. Miles
traveled under the HawaiianMiles program are accounted for as revenue
passenger miles, which, in turn, are used in the calculation of the Company's
yield. Non-travel awards are valued at the incremental cost of tickets
exchanged for such awards.
The Company recognizes a liability in the period in which members have
accumulated sufficient mileage points to allow for award redemption. The
liability is adjusted based on net mileage earned and utilized for award
redemption on a monthly basis. The incremental cost method is used, computed
primarily on the basis of fuel and catering costs, exclusive of any overhead
or profit margin. In estimating the amount of such incremental costs to be
accrued in the liability for potential future HawaiianMiles free travel, a
current average cost per award mile is determined. Incremental fuel expended
per passenger is based on engineering formulas to determine the quantity used
for the weight of each added passenger and baggage. Such incremental
quantity of fuel is priced at current levels. Catering is based on average
cost data per passenger for the most recent 12-month period.
As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, HawaiianMiles members had accumulated
approximately 3.7 billion and 3.0 billion miles, respectively, representing
liabilities totaling approximately $1.1 million. The Company's accruals
assume full redemption of mileage points. During the years ended December 31,
1998, 1997 and 1996, 1.2 billion, 736 million and 857 million award miles
were redeemed, respectively.
The Company believes that the usage of free travel awards will not result in
the displacement of revenue customers and, therefore, such usage will not
materially affect the Company's liquidity or operating results. The use of
free travel awards is subject to review by the Company to limit the
possibility of displacing revenue passengers. HawaiianMiles travel
redemption accounted for approximately 4.1%, 2.4% and 2.9% of Interisland
traffic and a negligible percentage of Transpac and Southpac traffic in 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively.
11. RELIANCE ON THIRD PARTIES
The Company has entered into agreements with contractors, including American,
Northwest and certain other airlines, to provide certain facilities and services
required for its operations, including aircraft, code sharing, reservations,
computer services, frequent flyer programs, aircraft maintenance, passenger
processing, fuel, ground facilities, baggage and cargo handling and personnel
training. This reliance on third parties to provide
F-24
<PAGE>
services subjects the Company to various risks, including the risk that such
services could be discontinued without adequate replacement services being
available.
The Company leases ten DC-10 aircraft from American. American is responsible
for maintenance on all of the Company's DC-10 aircraft (leased and owned)
with the Company having access to spare parts, engines and rotables for the
maintenance of these aircraft. As such, the Company does not maintain large
inventories of spare engines or parts to support the operation of the DC-10
aircraft. The Company pays a minimum monthly charge for maintenance
services, monthly in arrears. During 1998, the Company incurred
approximately $69.6 million of lease and maintenance expenses under the
American DC-10 aircraft leases. American has the right to terminate its
obligation to provide aircraft maintenance services on and after January 1,
1999, upon 180 days prior notice. American has indicated to the Company its
intent to provide maintenance services through September 2001, although it
may still exercise its right to terminate upon 180 days prior notice. If
American terminated the maintenance arrangement, the Company would have to
seek an alternate source of maintenance service or maintain its DC-10s by
itself. No assurance can be given that the Company would be able to do so on
a basis that is as cost-effective as the American maintenance arrangement.
See Notes 4 and 5. The Company also participates in American's AAdvantage
frequent flyer program and SABRE reservation system. Commencing March 2,
1998, the Company and American also effected a code sharing agreement. These
programs and services make the Company more competitive, but increases its
reliance on third parties.
The Company purchases almost all of its aviation fuel from Northwest pursuant
to an agreement which provides that, in case of shortages, Northwest will
provide fuel to its own fleet first and then a portion of the remaining fuel
available will be allocated between Hawaiian Airlines and any other
applicable airlines. The agreement requires Northwest to provide Hawaiian
Airlines with aviation fuel at Northwest's actual acquisition cost without
markup for profit and with reimbursement only for out-of-pocket costs. The
agreement is renewed automatically on December 31 of each year unless
canceled by either of the parties with 90 days, written notice. Hawaiian
Airlines is prohibited from reselling such fuel. No assurance can be given
that the Company would be able to secure an adequate supply of fuel from
alternate sources if a fuel shortage were to cause the supply from Northwest
to be inadequate or if Northwest were to cancel the agreement. The Company
paid Northwest approximately $60.7 million, $72.6 million and $70.9 million
for the fuel supplied under this agreement in 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. Further, effective July 1996, the Company entered into a
cooperative marketing agreement with Northwest, which provides for extensive
marketing cooperation, including a code sharing arrangement and frequent
flyer participation.
In 1998 and in both 1997 and 1996, a majority of the Company's ticket sales
were made by travel agents, including approximately 40% and 30% by six large
wholesalers. In 1998, one particular Hawaii-based wholesaler constituted
approximately 13% of the Company's total operating revenues. Travel agents
generally have a choice between one or more airlines when booking a
customer's flight. Accordingly, any effort by travel agencies to favor
another airline or to disfavor the Company could adversely affect the
Company. Although management intends to continue to offer an attractive and
competitive product to travel agencies and to maintain favorable relations
with travel agencies, there can be no assurance that travel agencies will not
disfavor the Company or favor other airlines in the future, either of which
could have an adverse effect on the Company's operations.
12. CONCENTRATION OF BUSINESS RISK
The Company's scheduled service operations are primarily focused on providing
air transportation service to, from, or throughout the Hawaiian Islands.
Therefore, the Company's operations, including its ability to collect its
outstanding receivables, are significantly affected by economic conditions in
the State of Hawaii and by other factors affecting the level of tourism in
Hawaii.
F-25
<PAGE>
13. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Due to the centralization of the Company's operations in the State of Hawaii
and the interdependence of its routes, management considers its operations to
be one industry segment. The Company is engaged principally in one line of
business, the scheduled and chartered transportation of passengers, which
constitutes more than 90% of its operating revenues. The following table
delineates scheduled and chartered passenger revenue of the Company, in
thousands:

Intending to be legally bound by this Aircraft Loan Agreement
("Agreement"), dated December 29, 1998, BANK OF HAWAII, a Hawaii corporation,
whose address is 130 Merchant Street, Honolulu, Hawaii 96813 (the "Bank") and
HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, INC., a Hawaii corporation, whose address is 3375 Koapaka
Street, Suite G350, Honolulu, Hawaii 96819 (the "Borrower") agree as follows:
I. TERM LOAN
1.1 LOAN. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions stated in Article
II of this Agreement, and on and subject to the terms stated in this Agreement,
the Bank shall make a term loan (the "Loan") to the Borrower in the principal
amount of _____________________________. The Loan shall be repaid, with interest
thereon, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
1.2 PURPOSE. The proceeds of the Loan shall be used exclusively to
finance the purchase of the Aircraft by Borrower.
1.3 SECURITY. The Loan shall be secured by liens on or security interests
in the Aircraft, the Assigned Agreements and the other Collateral described in
the Security Agreement, which liens or security interests shall be of first
priority unless otherwise agreed by the Bank.
1.4 INTEREST; REPAYMENT OF THE LOAN.
(a) INTEREST RATE. The Borrower agrees to pay interest on the outstanding
principal balance of the Loan at the rate of _____ per annum.
Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days
elapsed between payments and on the basis of a 365-day year (or, in leap years,
on the basis of a 366-day year).
In no event shall the Borrower be obligated to pay any amount under
this Agreement that exceeds the maximum amount allowable by law. If any sum is
collected in excess of the applicable maximum amount allowable by law, the
excess collected shall, at the Bank's discretion, be applied to reduce the
principal balance of the Loan or returned to the Borrower.
(b) REPAYMENT OF THE LOAN.
(1) PAYMENT SCHEDULE. The Borrower agrees to make equal monthly
payments of principal and interest, each in the amount of ___________, beginning
with a payment on January 29, 1999, and continuing on the same day of each
subsequent month (each such date, a "Monthly Payment Date").
<PAGE>
The Borrower agrees to pay in full on or before December 29, 2005,
all principal and accrued interest then outstanding with respect to the Loan,
not required to have been previously paid.
(2) CURRENCY, PLACE AND DATES OF PAYMENTS. Payments shall be
made in United States money in immediately available funds at the Bank's address
stated below, or at such other place as the Bank shall have designated by
written notice to the Borrower. Any payment due on a day that is not a Business
Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and the extension of time
shall be included in the computation of interest.
(3) EVIDENCE OF MAKING AND REPAYMENT OF THE LOAN. The Bank's
records evidencing the date of disbursements of the Loan and the amounts of all
repayments of principal and payments of interest on the Loan shall constitute
prima facie evidence of the making and repayment of the Loan and of the payment
of such interest. However, the Bank's making of erroneous notations in its
records shall not affect the Borrower's obligation to repay the outstanding
balance of principal under the Loan, and accrued interest thereon, as provided
in this Agreement.
(5) APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Payments under this Agreement may
be applied by the Bank to the Loan and the other indebtedness evidenced by this
Agreement in any manner the Bank deems appropriate. The priority of application
elected by the Bank on any one occasion shall not determine any such election in
the future.
(6) PREPAYMENTS. Borrower may make prepayments of principal as
hereinafter provided. Borrower shall give the Bank at least three (3) Business
Days prior written notice of Borrower' intention to prepay principal. On the
date designated in the aforesaid notice, Borrower shall pay: (i) the principal
amount specified in said notice to be prepaid; (ii) the Prepayment Premium on
the principal amount prepaid; and (iii) accrued interest on the principal amount
prepaid. The Prepayment Premium shall also be payable if an Event of Default
occurs and the Bank exercises its right to declare the unpaid principal and
interest of the Loan to be immediately due and payable. To and including the
first anniversary of the date hereof, the "Prepayment Premium" shall be equal to
3% of the principal amount prepaid. From and after the first anniversary of the
date hereof to and including the second anniversary of the date hereof, the
"Prepayment Premium" shall be equal to 2% of the principal amount prepaid. From
and after the second anniversary of the date hereof the "Prepayment Premium"
shall be equal to 1% of the principal amount prepaid. Partial prepayments shall
be applied against required payments of the most remote maturity, and will not
extend the dates or change the amounts of subsequent installment payments.
1.5 EVIDENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS; LOAN DOCUMENTS. The Loan is or is to be
evidenced and/or secured by this Agreement, the Note, the Security Agreement and
all such other documents as the Bank may reasonably require from time to time in
order to effectuate the intent of this Agreement, together with all renewals,
extensions and modifications thereto (the "Loan Documents").

observe and perform all indebtedness, liabilities, covenants and other
obligations on the part of the Borrower to be paid, observed and performed under

The Borrower, at its own cost and expense shall: (a) perform or cause to be
performed all mandatory service, repair, maintenance, overhaul, and testing of
the Aircraft (i) as may be necessary and required under applicable FAA Rules and
Regulations and (ii) in the same manner and with the same care as shall be the

United States government against the risks and in the amount required by
Section 7.1 hereof covering such areas; or (ii) in any recognized or
threatened area of hostility (including the United States of America or
Canada, if either of them becomes such an area of hostility) unless fully

unless such Aircraft is operated or used under contract with the United
States government or any instrumentality or agency thereof under which
contract the United States of America assumes liability for any damage, loss,
destruction or failure to return possession of such Aircraft at the end of
the term of such contract or for injury to Persons or damage to property of
others. Except as permitted by the preceding sentence, the Borrower also
agrees not to use or permit the Aircraft to be used in any manner or for any
purpose excepted from or contrary to any insurance policy or policies
required to be carried or maintained under the Security Instruments or for
any purpose or for the carriage or any goods of any description excepted or

or any third parties.
(b) POSSESSION. The Borrower will not, without the prior written consent
of the Bank, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld and for which no
fee or other amount (other than as expressly provided for hereunder) will be

possession of the Aircraft, Airframe or any Engine or any part thereof or any
part of the Borrower's rights hereunder to any Person or install any Engine, or
permit any Engine to be installed, on any airframe other than the Airframe;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, and so long as the Borrower shall comply with the
provisions of Section 7.1 hereof, the Borrower may, without the prior written
consent of the Bank:
(1) subject any Engine or Part to normal interchange or pooling
agreements or arrangements, in each case customary in the airline
industry and entered into by Borrower in the ordinary course of
its business, PROVIDED no such agreement or arrangement
contemplates or requires the transfer of title to such Engine or
Part and PROVIDED FURTHER that, if Borrower relinquishes
possession of an Engine under such an
13

agreement or arrangement for a continuous period of more than
180 days, an Event of Loss shall be deemed to have occurred
with respect thereto and Borrower shall comply with Section 7.2;
(2) deliver possession of the Aircraft, Airframe or any Engine to the
manufacturer thereof or to overhaul agencies for testing or other
similar purposes or to any organization for services, repair,

or additions to the Airframe or any Engine to the extent required
or permitted by the terms of Section 6.2(c) hereof;
(3) transfer possession of the Aircraft, Airframe or any Engine to the
United States government or any instrumentality or agency thereof
pursuant to a lease required to be entered into in accordance with
applicable laws, rulings, regulations or orders, a copy of which

(4) transfer possession of the Aircraft, Airframe or any Engine to the
United States government or any instrumentality or agency thereof
when required in accordance with applicable laws, ruling,

instruments, appurtenances, accessories, furnishings and other
equipment (other than Parts) installed on such airframe (but not
to the airframe as an entirety), and (C) the rights of other
United States certificated air carriers under normal interchange
or pooling agreements or arrangements which are customary in the
airline industry, and which do not contemplate, permit or require
the transfer of title to such airframe or the engines installed
on such Airframe;
(6) install an Engine on an airframe leased to the Borrower or
purchased by the Borrower subject to a conditional sale or other
security agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (A) such airframe is
free and clear of all Liens except the rights of the parties to
the lease or conditional sale or other security agreement covering
such airframe which insofar as they relate to such Engine are
subordinate to the rights of the Bank hereunder or which expressly
and effectively provide that each Engine shall not become subject
to the lien thereof as to any rights of any party thereunder other
than the Borrower, and (B) the Borrower shall have received from
the lessor or secured party of such airframe a written agreement
(which may be the lease or conditional sale or other security
agreement covering such airframe), a copy of which shall be
provided to the Bank, whereby such lessor or secured party agrees
that neither it
14
<PAGE>
nor its successors or assigns will acquire or claim any right,
title or interest in any Engine by reason of such Engine being
installed on such airframe at any time while such Engine is
subject to the Lien of the Security Agreement;
(7) install an Engine on an airframe owned by the Borrower, leased to
the Borrower or purchased by the Borrower subject to a conditional
sale or other security agreement under circumstances where neither
subsection (5) nor subsection (6) of this Section 6.1(b) is
applicable; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such installation shall be
deemed an Event of Loss with respect to such Engine and the
Borrower shall comply with Section 7.2 hereof with respect to such
Event of Loss, the Bank not intending hereby to waive any right or
interest it may have to or in such Engine under applicable law
until compliance by the Borrower with said Section 7.2;
(8) lease any engine or the Aircraft, Airframe and any Engines or
engines then installed on such Airframe in the ordinary course of
business to (A) a United States Certificated Air Carrier (a
"PERMITTED AIR CARRIER") not the subject of petition filed under
the Federal bankruptcy laws or other insolvency laws now or
hereinafter in effect for use by such United States Certificated
Permitted Air Carrier on its regularly scheduled or charter
routes, or (B) a foreign permitted air carrier (as described in
SCHEDULE E hereto (a "FOREIGN PERMITTED AIR CARRIER")) not the
subject of a petition filed under bankruptcy or other insolvency
laws now or hereafter in effect, for use by such Foreign Permitted
Carrier in its regularly scheduled or charter routes; provided,
however, that the Bank, upon request, shall receive satisfactory
legal opinions to the effect that, upon such lease, the Bank's
rights under the Loan Documents will remain fully perfected; and
(9) enter into a wet lease or charter (whereby the Borrower provides
flight crew, maintenance, ground crew, etc. for the benefit of any
lessee) in the ordinary course of Borrower's business which shall
not be considered a transfer of possession hereunder, provided
that the Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents shall
continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such wet
lease or charter;
PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the rights of any transferee who receives possession by
reason of a transfer permitted by this Section (other than the transfer of an
Engine which is deemed an Event of Loss) shall be subject and subordinate to,
and any lease permitted by this Section shall expressly prohibit any lease of
the Airframe or such Engine by the lessee and shall be made expressly subject
and subordinate to, all the terms of the Loan Documents, including, without
limitation, the covenants contained in this Section, the Bank's rights to
repossession pursuant to the Loan Documents, and Borrower shall remain primarily
liable hereunder for the performance of all of the terms hereof to the same
extent as if such transfer or lease had not occurred. No interchange agreement,
15
<PAGE>
lease or other relinquishment of possession of the Airframe or any Engine shall
in any way discharge or diminish any of the Borrower's obligations to the Bank
hereunder. In the event the Borrower shall have received from the lessor or
secured party of any airframe leased to the Borrower or purchased by the
Borrower subject to a conditional sale or other security agreement a written
agreement complying with subsection (6) of this Section 6.1(b), and the lease or
conditional sale or other security agreement covering such airframe also covers
an engine or engines owned by the lessor under such lease or subject to a
security interest in favor of the secured party under such conditional sale or
other security agreement, the Bank hereby agrees for the benefit of such lessor
or secured party that the Bank will not acquire or claim, as against such lessor
or secured party, any right, title or interest in any such engine as the result
of such engine being installed on the Airframe at any time while such engine is
subject to such lease or conditional sale or other security agreement and owned
by such lessor or subject to a security interest in favor of such secured party.
The Bank also hereby agrees for the benefit of the mortgagee under any mortgage
complying with clause (A) of subsection (6) of this Section 6.1(b) that the Bank
will not acquire or claim, as against such mortgagee, any right, title or
interest in any engine subject to the lien of such mortgage as the result of
such engine being installed on the Airframe at any time while such engine is
subject to the lien of such mortgage. In the case of any transferee that
receives possession by reason of a transfer permitted by Section 6.1(b) (other
than the transfer of an Engine which is deemed to have been an Event of Loss),
(1) the rights of such transferee shall be subject and subordinate to, and any
lease permitted by this Section 6.1(b) shall be made expressly subordinate to,
all the terms of the Loan Documents; (2) the Borrower shall remain primarily
liable hereunder for the performance of all of the terms of the Loan Documents
to the same extent as if such lease or transfer had not occurred; and (3)
without limiting the effect of the preceding clause (2), any such lease shall
include appropriate provisions (by requiring such obligations to be performed by
the lessee) for the operation, maintenance and insurance of the Airframe and the
Engines leased thereby in accordance with the terms hereof; and PROVIDED,
FURTHER, that any such lease shall expressly prohibit any assignment or sublease
(other than as permitted by subsection (1) of this Section 6.1(b)) of the
subject Aircraft, Airframe or any Engine and any of the rights under such lease.
Borrower may identify the Aircraft to be allocated to the Civil Reserve Air
Fleet Program ("CRAF") only so long as (i) Borrower has delivered a true and
complete copy of the agreement relating to CRAF between Borrower and the United
States Government to Bank and (ii) the United States Government has agreed to
indemnify Borrower and Bank for any loss or damage to the Aircraft while the
Aircraft is being used under CRAF.
As security for the due and punctual payment of all amounts payable by the
Borrower hereunder and the performance and observance by the Borrower of all of
the covenants made by it in the Loan Documents, the Borrower hereby grants to
the Bank a security interest in all of the Borrower's right, title and interest
in and to each lease of the Aircraft, whenever entered into, together with all
renewals of any such lease executed from time to time, and all payments of rent
and all other amounts due and to become due thereunder; and the Borrower shall
take such actions as the Bank may reasonably request for the purpose of
perfecting, preserving or otherwise protecting such security interest.

(c) MARKINGS. The Borrower agrees, at its own cost and expense, to cause
the Airframe and the Engines to be kept numbered with the identification or
serial numbers therefor as specified in SCHEDULE A.
(d) ASSIGNMENTS. Except as permitted by Sections 5.5 and 6.1(b), all or
any part of the Borrower's rights hereunder or in the Airframe or any Engine

Bank's prior written consent, and any such purported assignment, lease or
conveyance shall be void.

contrary contained in this Loan Agreement, an engine which is not an Engine, but
which is installed on the Airframe, shall be maintained in accordance with
Section 6.1(a).
(f) RECORDS CONCERNING MAINTENANCE. Throughout the term of the Loan, the
Borrower shall keep accurate, complete and current records (in accordance with
(i) the applicable requirements of the FAA or any other governmental body having
jurisdiction from time to time in effect, and (ii) the mandatory recommendations
of the manufacturer of the Aircraft) of all maintenance carried out with respect
to the Aircraft and shall permit the Bank or its respective agents to examine
such records at any reasonable time provided that such examination shall not
interfere with the Borrower's normal operation and scheduling of the Aircraft.
The records, logs and documents so kept or maintained shall be part of the
Manuals and Technical Records (and the definitions of "AIRCRAFT" and "MANUALS
AND TECHNICAL RECORDS" in Article X shall be construed accordingly).
6.2 REPLACEMENT AND POOLING OF PARTS; IMPROVEMENTS.
(a) REPLACEMENT OF PARTS. The Borrower, at its own cost and expense, will
promptly replace all Parts, which may from time to time be incorporated or
installed in or attached to the Airframe or any Engine and which may from time
to time become worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged
beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use for any reason whatsoever,
except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c) of this Section (such substituted
parts being hereinafter called "REPLACEMENT PARTS"). The Borrower shall notify
the Bank of any Replacement Parts having a per item cost of ___________ or more.
In addition, the Borrower may, at its own cost and expense, remove in the
ordinary course of maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing any Parts,
whether or not worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged
beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Borrower, except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c) of this Section, will,
at its own cost and expense, replace such Parts as promptly as possible. All
Replacement Parts shall be free and clear of all Liens (except for pooling
arrangements to the extent permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section) and shall
be in as good operating condition as, and shall have a value and utility at
least equal to, the Parts replaced assuming such replaced Parts were in the
condition and repair required to be maintained by the terms hereof. Bank's
security interest shall continue in all Parts
17
<PAGE>
at any time removed from the Airframe or any Engine, no matter where located,
until such time as such Parts shall be replaced by parts which have been
incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or any Engine and
which meet the requirements for Replacement Parts specified above.
Immediately upon any Replacement Part becoming incorporated or installed in
or attached to the Airframe or any Engine as above provided, without further
act, (i) Bank's security interest in the replaced Part shall be released, and
such replaced Part shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder, and (ii) such
Replacement Part shall become a Part subject to Bank's security interest and
be deemed part of the Airframe or such Engine for all purposes hereof to the
same extent as the parts originally incorporated or installed in or attached
to the Airframe or such Engine.
(b) POOLING OF PARTS. So long as no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred or be continuing hereunder, any Part removed from the Airframe or
any Engine as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section may be subjected by the
Borrower to a normal pooling arrangement customary in the airline industry
entered into in the ordinary course of the Borrower's business with Permitted
Air Carriers or the manufacturer of such Part; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Replacement Part shall be incorporated or installed in or attached to the
Airframe or Engine in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section as promptly
as possible after the removal of such removed Part. In addition, any Replacement
Part when incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or any Engine
in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section may be owned by a Permitted Air
Carrier subject to such a normal pooling arrangement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
the Borrower, at its expense, as promptly thereafter as possible, either (i)
causes such Replacement Part to be subject to Bank's security interest in
accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section or (ii) replaces such Replacement
Part by incorporating or installing in or attaching to the Airframe or such
Engine a further Replacement Part owned by the Borrower free and clear of all
Liens and by causing such further Replacement Part to be subject to Bank's
security interest in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section.
(c) IMPROVEMENTS. The Borrower, at its own expense, shall affix or
install any accessory, equipment or device to or on the Airframe or an Engine or
make such alterations, modifications and additions to the Airframe or the
Engines (any such accessory, installed equipment or device, improvement,
modification, alteration or addition affixed or installed pursuant to this
paragraph being herein referred to as an "IMPROVEMENT") as may be required from
time to time to meet the standards of the FAA or other governmental authority
having jurisdiction and as may be required to permit the full and unrestricted
use of the Aircraft in the service now and from time to time provided by the
Borrower, including but not limited to operating noise level standards or other
standards under the regulations of the FAA for which compliance is required.
In addition, the Borrower, at its own expense, may from time to time
make such Improvements to the Airframe or any Engine as the Borrower may deem
desirable in the proper conduct of its business; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such
Improvement shall diminish the value or utility of the Airframe or any such
Engine, or impair the condition or airworthiness thereof, below the value,
utility, condition and airworthiness
18
<PAGE>
thereof immediately prior to such Improvement assuming the Airframe or any
such Engine was then of the value or utility and in the condition and
airworthiness required to be maintained by the terms of this Agreement. All
Parts constituting Improvements shall, without further act, become subject to
Bank's security interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence of this
paragraph, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, the Borrower may, at any time, remove any Improvement;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) such Improvement is in addition to, and not in
replacement of or substitution for, any Part originally incorporated or
installed in or attached to the Airframe or such Engine or any Improvement in
replacement of, or substitution for any such Improvement, (ii) such
Improvement is not required to be incorporated or installed in or attached or
added to the Airframe or any such Engine pursuant to the terms of this
Section, and (iii) such Improvement can be removed from the Airframe or such
Engine without diminishing or impairing the value, utility, condition or
airworthiness required to be maintained by the terms of this Agreement which
the Airframe or such Engine would have had at such time had such alteration,
modification or addition not occurred. Upon the removal by the Borrower of
any Improvement as above provided, Bank's security interest in such
Improvement shall, without further act, be released and such Improvement
shall no longer be deemed part of the Airframe or Engine from which it was
removed.

affiliates and directors, officers, employees, servants and agents as an
additional insured (each such Person, an "ADDITIONAL INSURED"), as its
interests may appear (2) provide that in respect of the interest of each
Additional Insured in such policies, the insurance shall not be invalidated
by any action or inaction of Borrower or any other insured and shall insure
each Additional Insured regardless of any breach or violation of any

of war risk and allied perils coverage) after receipt by such Additional
Insured of written notice from such insurers of such cancellation, lapse or
change; and (4) provide that no Additional Insured shall have any obligation
or liability for premiums, commissions, assessments or calls in connection
with such insurance. Each liability policy shall (i) be primary without right
of contribution from any other insurance which is carried by any Additional
Insured, (ii) expressly provide that all of the provisions thereof, except
the limits of liability, shall operate in the same manner as if there were a
separate policy covering any Additional Insured, and (iii) waive any right of

deduction, whether by attachment or otherwise, in respect of any liability of
any Additional Insured or Borrower to the extent of any moneys due to such
Additional Insureds.

standard "buy-back" provisions to the Common North American Airline War
Exclusion Clause as currently available in the United States aviation insurance

commissions, assessments or calls in connection with such insurance. If the
insurance required to be carried pursuant to Sections 7.1(b) and 7.1(c) is

for appropriate certification and broker's letter of undertaking as to the
satisfaction of the requirements set forth above in Sections 7.1(a), (b) and (c)

advise the Bank in writing promptly of any default in the payment of any premium
and of any other act or omission on the part of the Borrower which might
invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any insurance on the
Aircraft. Upon the request of the Bank, the Borrower will furnish to the extent
procurable and if the Borrower is not prohibited from so procuring to such
party, within a reasonable period after such request (after the same are
available to the Borrower), a copy of the policy or policies evidencing the
insurance carried and maintained pursuant to this Section. The Borrower will
also cause the applicable insurer to advise the Bank in writing at least 30 days
prior to the expiration or termination date of any insurance carried and
maintained on the Aircraft pursuant to this Section. In the event that the
Borrower shall fail to maintain insurance as herein provided, the Bank may at
its sole option provide such insurance and, in such event, the Borrower shall,
upon demand, reimburse the Bank for the cost thereof, without waiver of any
other rights the Bank may have.

days after the date of occurrence of such Event of Loss, take such actions as
are necessary to ensure that such Engine shall be replaced as soon as possible,

(iii) within 60 days after the date of occurrence of such Event of Loss,
cause, as replacement for the Engine with respect to which such Event of Loss
occurred, another General Electric CF6-50C2 engine (or engine of the same or
another manufacturer, of the same or improved utility, performance and
efficiency and suitable for installation and use on the Airframe in
conjunction with the remaining Engines installed on the Aircraft) owned by
the Borrower free and clear of all Liens and having a value and utility at
least equal to, and being in as good operating condition as, the Engine with
respect to which such Event of Loss occurred, assuming such Engine was of the
value and utility and in the condition and repair required by the terms
hereof immediately prior to the occurrence of such Event of Loss to be
subjected to Bank's security interest hereunder and under the Security
Agreement. Prior to or at the time of any such conveyance, the Borrower, at
its own expense, will (i) cause a supplement to the Security Agreement, in
form and substance satisfactory to the Bank, to be duly executed by the
Borrower and recorded pursuant to the Federal Aviation Act, (ii) execute and,
if necessary, file such documents as may be reasonably required by the Bank
to confirm the Bank's security interest in such replacement engine, (iii)
furnish the Bank with such evidence of compliance with the insurance
provisions of Section 7.1 hereof with respect to such replacement engine as
the Bank may reasonably request, and (iv) furnish the Bank with an opinion of
counsel (and such other evidence of security interest as the Bank may
reasonably request) to the effect that, upon the execution of such
supplement, the Bank will acquire a first priority security interest in such
replacement engine to the same extent as the Engine replaced thereby. Upon
full compliance by the Borrower with the terms of this paragraph, the Bank
will release its security interest in the Engine with respect to which such
Event of Loss occurred. For all purposes hereof, each such replacement engine
shall, after such conveyance, be deemed part of the Collateral shall be
deemed an "Engine" as defined herein and shall be deemed part of the Aircraft.

the recovery of any judgment by Bank against Borrower or by the levy.
8.3 PROCEEDS OF COLLATERAL. All cash proceeds received by Bank in respect
of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of
the Collateral shall be held by Bank as collateral for, and then promptly

records pertaining to the Collateral with a legend in form and substance
satisfactory to Bank, indicating that such Collateral is subject to the security
interest Granted by the Security Agreement; and execute and file such documents
with the FAA , such financing or continuation statements, or amendments hereto
or thereto, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or
reasonably desirable, or as Bank may reasonably request, in order to perfect and

law, Bank shall give Borrower prior notice of its intention to perform for
Borrower.
9.4 BANK'S DUTIES. The powers conferred on Bank hereunder are solely to

conduct or custom on the part of the Bank in refraining from so doing at any
time or times. The failure of the Bank at any time or times to enforce its
rights under such provisions, strictly in accordance with the same, shall not be
construed as having created a custom in any way or manner contrary to specific
provisions of the Loan Documents or as having in any way or manner modified or
waived the same. All rights and remedies of the Bank are cumulative and
concurrent and the exercise of one right or remedy shall not be deemed a waiver
or release of any other right or remedy.
9.6 GENERAL INDEMNITY. The Borrower agrees to indemnify, protect and hold
harmless the Bank, and its assigns, directors, officers, employees, agents or
representatives (each an "Indemnified Party") from and against all losses,
damages, injuries, liabilities, claims, suits, obligations, penalties, actions,
judgments, costs, interest and demands of any kind or nature whatsoever (all the
foregoing losses, damages etc. are the "indemnified liabilities"), and expenses
in connection therewith (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel for such Indemnified Party in connection with any
investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding, whether or not such
Indemnified Party shall be designated a party thereto, and the expenses of
investigation by engineers, environmental consultants and similar technical
personnel; provided, that Borrower shall not be liable for the fees, costs and
expenses of more than one separate counsel (unless additional counsels are
reasonably necessary as a result of a conflict between the Indemnified Parties)
at the same time for all Indemnified Parties indemnified hereunder in connection
with the same action and any separate but substantially similar or related
action in the same jurisdiction) arising out of, in connection with, or as the
result of (i) any claim for personal injury or property damage arising from the

rejection, storage or repossession of the Aircraft while a security interest
therein remains in the Bank or during the exercise of the remedies of Bank
pursuant to any of the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that
the Borrower shall have no obligation to so indemnify any Indemnified Party
for any indemnified liabilities arising solely from the willful misconduct or

TO
AIRCRAFT LOAN AGREEMENT
Dated December 29, 1998
between
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc., as Borrower, and
Bank of Hawaii, as Bank
The Department of Taxation, State of Hawaii (the "DOT"), has been in
discussions with Borrower regarding a potential assessment of general excise tax
payments ("GET") on lease rents paid since 1989 to lessors of DC9 aircraft used
by Borrower intrastate. Pursuant to the respective leases, Borrower as lessee
would be liable for such assessment. Borrower has asserted that any such
assessment would be relevant only to lease rent paid under operating leases (not
capitol leases), that Borrower would not be liable for any assessment for
periods prior to its 1994 discharge in bankruptcy, and that any assessment would
be subject to various other defenses. The DOT has recently indicated that
capitol leases may be treated as sale transactions, also subject to GET.
The matter is under negotiation with the DOT.

Records during the five days immediately preceding the Proposed Delivery

under this Agreement.

the event of any dispute between the Seller and the Buyer arising under
this clause 4.3 as to the existence of any defect or fault, the same
shall be referred to Joseph Pettigrew of Cavtech (the "EXPERT") for
resolution. The determination of the Expert shall be final and binding

reasonable efforts to carry out any necessary repairs or modifications
to, or work on, the Aircraft to the Seller's approved maintenance
standards and operation specifications and the Seller shall, if requested

flight, when the

(from known mandatory airworthiness directives or service bulletins
on or after the date of this Agreement) are likely to exceed

obligation to sell the Aircraft to the Buyer; or

Buyer.

Phoenix, Arizona, or at such other place as the Seller and the Buyer may
agree in writing.
5.2 When the inspection and test flight have been completed without any
defects being agreed in accordance with clause 4.3, or after the Seller
has remedied any such defect in accordance with clause 4.4 then, subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Seller shall tender
the Aircraft for delivery (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not
occur prior to the Proposed Delivery Date) and the Buyer shall execute
and deliver to the Seller the Acceptance Certificate and pay to the
Seller the Purchase Price less the amount of the Deposit.

relating to the Aircraft and each part thereof. The Seller undertakes
upon written request by the Buyer from time to time to use reasonable
endeavours to obtain any consents for such assignments that may be
necessary from the manufacturers or the suppliers. If any of such
warranties shall not be assignable, or if consent to assignment shall be
refused, then subject to receipt by the Seller of an indemnity from the
Buyer in such form as may be reasonably satisfactory to the Seller as to
costs and expenses to be incurred, the Seller will take such action as
the Buyer may reasonably request to enforce any such manufacturers' or
suppliers' warranties.

in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, otherwise than in
the circumstances referred to in clauses 4.4, 13.1, 14.1, 14.2, 14.3,

inter alia, be deemed to be a cause or matter beyond the Seller's
reasonable control.
12.2 If between the date of this Agreement and Delivery the Aircraft or any
part thereof suffers damage which in the Seller's opinion is repairable,
then the Seller shall notify the Buyer in writing of such damage and,
subject to clauses 4.4, 13.1, 14.1, 14.2 and 14.3 shall use all
reasonable efforts to repair such damage as soon as practicable. Upon
completion of such repairs, the Buyer shall purchase the Aircraft and
take delivery of the Aircraft in accordance with clause 5.2. The time
taken to effect any such repairs shall be deemed to be an excusable delay
for the purposes of this Agreement and the Proposed Delivery Date shall
be extended accordingly.
13 MANDATORY MODIFICATIONS
13.1 If the incorporation before the date referred to in clause 3.1(b) of any
airworthiness directive or service bulletin relating to the Aircraft is
made mandatory by the Aviation Authority after the date of this Agreement
but before Delivery then the Seller shall notify the Buyer in writing and
if in the Seller's reasonable opinion the aggregate cost of all such
modifications is likely to exceed ____________ or that the costs involved
together with (1) the costs previously incurred under this clause 13.1
and clause 4.4 and/or (2) costs expected to be incurred under clause 4.4
are likely to exceed ____________ then unless the Buyer elects to take
the Aircraft without the modification, or unless the Seller and the Buyer
otherwise agree in writing, the Seller shall be entitled to terminate its
obligation to sell the Aircraft to the Buyer by giving notice to the
Buyer to that effect. Upon a termination in accordance with this
15
<PAGE>
clause 13.1, the full amount of the Deposit for the Aircraft shall be
released to the Buyer in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement
but the Seller shall have no other obligation to the Buyer.
13.2 Any delay in tendering delivery of the Aircraft attributable to the
carrying out of any mandatory modification referred to in clause 13.1
shall be deemed to be due to a reason beyond the Seller's reasonable
control, the provisions of clause 12.1 shall apply and the time taken to
effect any such repairs shall be deemed to be an excusable delay for the
purposes of this Agreement and the Proposed Delivery Date shall be
extended accordingly. The Seller shall not be liable for any effect upon
the value, performance or airworthiness of the Aircraft which may be
attributable directly or indirectly to any such mandatory modification,
and notwithstanding anything to the contrary which may be contained in or
implied by this Agreement, the Buyer shall be bound to accept delivery of
the Aircraft as so modified.
14 TERMINATION
14.1 If as a result of any cause:
(a) delivery of the Aircraft is delayed for a period of more than one
month calculated from and including February 16, 1999; or
(b) if prior to Delivery Aircraft suffers repairable damage which in
the reasonable opinion of the Seller, is likely to take more than
one month to repair from and including February 16, 1999; then
the Buyer may terminate its obligation to buy and accept delivery of the
Aircraft upon giving the Seller notice to that effect.
14.2 If (a) as a result of any cause or matter beyond the Seller's reasonable
control as referred to in clause 12.1, delivery of the Aircraft is
delayed for a period of more than three months from and including
16
<PAGE>
February 16, 1999 the Seller may notify the Buyer of its election (subject
to no Extension Period being required by the Buyer) to terminate its
obligation to sell the Aircraft to the Buyer on a specified date no less
then ten days (a "TERMINATION DATE") following the date of such notice to
the Buyer. Unless the Buyer shall agree in writing within seven days of
receipt of such notice from the Seller to waive its rights to terminate
its obligation to buy and accept delivery of the Aircraft under clauses
4.4(b) and 14.1 for a period (an "EXTENSION PERIOD") ending (subject as
provided below) no earlier than thirty days after (1) the date of such
notice in the case of subclause (a) above or (2) the date on which the
Seller reasonably expects the Aircraft to be repaired in the case of
subclause (b) above, the Seller's obligation to sell the Aircraft to the
Buyer will terminate on the Termination Date. The Buyer may extend the
Extension Period from time to time by a notice in writing to the Seller,
such notice to be given no less than five days before the expiry of the
Extension Period. Where the Buyer has required an Extension Period, the
Seller's obligation to sell the Aircraft to the Buyer shall terminate on
the day succeeding the last day of the Extension Period. Notwithstanding
the above, no Extension Period (or extended Extension Period) shall
continue or be capable of continuing beyond September 1, 1999. Upon
termination in accordance with clause 14.1, or this clause 14.2 the full
Deposit for the Aircraft shall be released to the Buyer in accordance
with the terms of the Escrow Agreement but the Seller shall have no other
obligation to the Buyer.
14.3 If before Delivery the Aircraft is lost or destroyed, or suffers
substantial damage which in the Seller's opinion it would be uneconomical
to repair, or is requisitioned by any Government Entity, the Seller shall
promptly notify the Buyer of such occurrence, whereupon this Agreement
shall be deemed to have been terminated and upon such termination the
full Deposit for the Aircraft shall be released to the Buyer pursuant to
the terms of the Escrow Agreement but the Seller shall have no other
obligation to the Buyer.
14.4 Without prejudice to any other remedies then available to it each party
shall have the right to terminate this Agreement forthwith by notice to
the other party if:
17
<PAGE>
(a) a Bankruptcy Event occurs with respect to the other party; or
(b) there occurs, in relation to the other party in any country or
territory in which it carries on business, or to the jurisdiction
of whose courts any part of its assets is subject, any event which
appears in that country or territory to correspond with, or have an
effect equivalent or similar to, any of the events mentioned in (a)
above or such party otherwise becomes subject in any such country
or territory to the operation of any law relating to insolvency,
bankruptcy or liquidation;
and on such termination, the full Deposit for the Aircraft shall be
released to the terminating party pursuant to the terms of the Escrow
Agreement but the non-terminating party shall have no other obligation to
the terminating party.
14.5 If the Buyer shall fail to satisfy the conditions set out in clause 8.1
on or prior to the Proposed Delivery Date, or shall fail to take delivery
of the Aircraft when it is tendered for delivery in accordance with this
Agreement, or shall fail to pay the Deposit and the balance of the
Purchase Price or any other payment under this Agreement when due or any
part thereof, the Seller may by notice to the Buyer terminate its
obligation to sell the Aircraft to the Buyer and on such termination the
full Deposit for the Aircraft shall be released to the Seller pursuant to
the terms of the Escrow Agreement but the Buyer shall have no other
obligation to the Seller.

PASSENGER AIRCRAFT CHARTER AGREEMENT
This Passenger Aircraft Charter Agreement (the "Agreement") is made and
entered into this 9th day of November, 1997 and effective the 1st day of
February, 1998 (the "Effective Date"), by and between Hawaiian, Inc., a Hawaii
corporation, whose principal place of business and mailing address is P.O. Box
30008, Honolulu, Hawaii, 96820 ("Hawaiian") and HAWAIIAN VACATIONS, INC., an
Alaska corporation, whose principal place of business and post office address is
1010 West Northern Lights Boulevard, Anchorage, Alaska, 99503 ("Charterer").
Charterer and Hawaiian are sometimes referred to in this Agreement as the
"Party" or collectively as the "Parties."
W I T N E S S E T H :
WHEREAS, Hawaiian is engaged in the business of providing charter air
transportation, and Charterer is in the business of organizing and extensively
marketing and promoting travel arrangements for sale to the public;
WHEREAS, Hawaiian and Charterer desire to set forth the charter fare
levels, flight schedules and other procedures to be followed, whereby Charterer
may purchase charter air transportation on Hawaiian,
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
obligations hereinafter set forth, Hawaiian and Charterer agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1. GENERAL
1.1 The Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the
Parties regarding the subject matter hereof, and, as of the commencement
date, supersedes all prior agreements, whether written or oral, between
the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof.
1.2 Subject to Hawaiian and Charterer receiving the necessary regulatory
approvals, this Agreement shall be effective on the Effective Date and
shall continue through April 30, 1999.
1.3. During the term of this Agreement, Hawaiian shall not enter into the
Anchorage/Hawaii market on a scheduled basis other than flights
scheduled for this Agreement, or extend charter services to any other
operator other than Charterer. During the term of this Agreement,
Charterer shall not operate any scheduled service or charter service in
the Anchorage/Hawaii market other than with Hawaiian.
ARTICLE 2. CHARTER AIR TRANSPORTATION, FLIGHT SCHEDULES AND FARE LEVELS
2.1 CHARTER FLIGHT(S). Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, Hawaiian agrees to make available to Charterer, and Charterer
agrees to charter from Hawaiian, aircraft of the type and configuration
as set forth in Attachment(s) A, attached hereto, for the performance of
the charter flight(s) described in Attachment A ("Charter Flights").
2.2 REGULATORY APPROVALS. It is agreed that both Parties' performance under
this Agreement is subject to Hawaiian receiving from Charterer evidence
satisfactory to Hawaiian that Charterer has complied with and obtained
governmental regulatory approval necessary to conduct Charter Flights,
including but not limited to Department of Transportation ("DOT") Forms
4533 "Statement of Charter Operator or Direct Air Carrier and Securer,"
4532 "Statement of Charter Operator and Direct Air Carrier Flight
Schedule" and 4534 "Statement of Charter Operator, Direct Air Carrier
and Depository Bank," and has complied with Part 380 of the DOT.
2.3 During the course of the Agreement should another scheduled air carrier
or charter operator approved by the DOT enter the Hawaii market on a
nonstop basis from Alaska the
<PAGE>
PASSENGER AIRCRAFT CHARTER AGREEMENT
HAWAIIAN VACATIONS, INC.
Page 2
Parties will jointly review the viability of a continuation of the
contract. If it is agreed to continue, the contract price will be
revised to represent ____ of the lowest "published" retail price point
offered by the other air carrier. "Published" shall mean the
appearance of the fare in at least two (2) CRS systems, or in
advertising in the local media or in written communication to retail
travel agents in the Hawaii/Alaska market. "Published" shall not
constitute an announcement of intention to operate but must be proven
to be available for purchase. If Hawaiian reduces the cost per seat
the accompanying rules of the published fare shall apply to the
reduced Charterer fare. If Hawaiian decides that continuation of the
Agreement is not viable, the Agreement may be canceled with ninety
(90) days written notice by Charterer to Hawaiian. In that case,
Hawaiian will agree to amend the Agreement to match ____ of the
competitive published rate forty-five (45) days prior to the
commencement of operations by the other air carrier and for the
balance of the ninety (90) days remaining from receipt of the written
cancellation notice.
ARTICLE 3. FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS
3.1 SECURITY DEPOSIT. Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement,
as security for the payment of any and all amounts due Hawaiian pursuant
to this Agreement and not paid by Charterer within the periods
specified, Charterer or its designee shall deliver to Hawaiian an
appropriate instrument, as specified in Attachment A and in a form
reasonably acceptable to Hawaiian, which shall remain valid until
forty-five (45) days after the termination of this Agreement. Hawaiian
shall promptly report to Charterer any draw made against such security.
Charterer shall immediately amend such security to provide for
additional security in the amount so reported to have been drawn or
cause to be issued a new security in the amount so reported to have been
drawn.
3.2 PAYMENTS. This Agreement is for a public charter under Part 380 of the
Regulations of the DOT. Charterer, Hawaiian and Charterer's bank (the
"Depository Bank") shall execute a depository agreement in form and
substance satisfying the requirements of Part 380. Upon execution of
the bank depository agreement by the Parties hereto, said agreement
automatically becomes a part of this Agreement. Hawaiian shall be paid
in accordance with the depository agreement. Such payments, made in
accordance with Part 380, due to Hawaiian hereunder, will be made by
Depository Bank on or before the due date in immediately available funds
by electronic funds transferred to the Escrow Account as follows:
Bank of Hawaii

Attention: Escrow Department
and credited to the escrow account of Hawaiian at Bank of Hawaii. Each
deposit to the Escrow Account shall be accompanied by sufficient
information to properly identify the payment in accordance with the
requirements of Part 380 and Part 207. All monies shall remain in the
escrow account until the rotation for which payment is made has been
completed.
3.3 MANIFEST LIST. At least two (2) days prior to the departure of each
flight, Charterer will fax to Hawaiian a manifest list of all passengers
of the flight and their return flight. This manifest list will be
provided to Hawaiian, Schedule Planning, through the use of the
SABRE-Registered Trademark- system with airline capabilities provided by
Hawaiian to Charterer or by any other means that is mutually agreed to
by both Parties. No later than 7 p.m. (HST) on the day of departure of
<PAGE>
PASSENGER AIRCRAFT CHARTER AGREEMENT
HAWAIIAN VACATIONS, INC.
Page 3
each flight, Charterer will use its best efforts to provide a revised
manifest list of all passengers of the flight and their return flight to
Hawaiian, Schedule Planning and Customer Services, by any means mutually
agreed to by both Parties.
3.5 NON-PAYMENT. Hawaiian has no obligation to perform any Charter Flight
unless the full payment amounts set forth in Attachment A and any other
payment due in advance hereunder have been properly remitted to Hawaiian
in full at least fifteen (15) days before departure. Such payments
shall be paid on or before the due date(s) set forth herein, without
notice, demand, counterclaim, set off or deduction whatsoever.
3.6 TRANSPORTATION TAXES. The charter price as set forth in Attachment A is
exclusive of transportation tax, passenger facility charges (PFCs) and
charter international terminal fees (CITs). Charterer is responsible
for these taxes/fees and any additional airport assessments or passenger
charges. To the extent that Hawaiian is required to remit any such
payments directly, Charterer will pay such amounts directly to Hawaiian
as set forth in Attachment A. Hawaiian also reserves the right to amend
payment of transportation fees within the effective period of this
contract.
3.7 LATE CHARGES ON PAST-DUE PAYMENTS. In the event Charterer or Hawaiian
fails to make payment to the other Party when it becomes due pursuant to
this Agreement, the defaulting Party shall pay the non-defaulting Party
interest on the amount in default from its due date to the date of
payment at the then current prime rate of interest plus
___________________ per annum announced in the Wall Street Journal, or
at the highest rate applicable by law, whichever is less.
ARTICLE 4. PERFORMANCE OF CHARTER FLIGHTS
4.1 AIRCRAFT AND REGULATIONS. Hawaiian shall provide the aircraft properly
crewed, maintained and fueled as set forth in Attachment A. Charterer
shall observe all operating rules and regulations of Hawaiian and shall
comply with all reasonable instructions of Hawaiian employees and
agents. It is understood that the aircraft and its crew will at all
times during the course of the Charter Flight be under the exclusive
command and control of Hawaiian and Hawaiian's Pilot-in-Command, whose
orders will be strictly complied with by the Charterer and all
passengers.
4.2 FLIGHT SCHEDULE. Hawaiian shall use its best efforts to carry the
charter passengers and their baggage with reasonable dispatch.
Departure times are subject to and may be altered by aircraft
availability and routing, the availability of airport gate spaces,
weather conditions and other operational factors.
Each Party hereto agrees to use its best efforts in causing on-time
departure of all Charter Flights in accordance with the schedules, which
are set forth in the Attachment(s). In no event shall Hawaiian be
liable to the Charterer or any other individual for the transportation
of any passenger who is not at the specified check-in point at least
one-half (1/2) hour prior to the scheduled departure, and such flight
may depart as scheduled without such passenger(s), except that
Charterer's airport agent at departure can request a delay to Hawaiian's
airport agent in order to accommodate passengers who are not at check-in
or on board at the specified time. It is further agreed that Hawaiian
will check with Charterer's airport agent prior to committing the
aircraft for departure to determine if Charterer chooses to exercise
such option. Payment, if any, for such a requested delay shall be
billed at the rate outline in section 4.12 of this Agreement.
4.3 SUBSTITUTE AIRCRAFT. Hawaiian may, at its option, substitute comparable
aircraft (i.e. aircraft with at least 300 passengers seats and the
capability to fly non-stop between Honolulu and Anchorage) of a type
different from that specified in Attachment A without penalty to
Hawaiian, provided that any such substitution shall not result in an
increase in the charter

price payable by the Charterer. Hawaiian may, to the extent permitted

exercise of its reasonable discretion, at any time, that the landing
facilities at any point(s) on the itinerary of the charter are
inadequate for safe operation or if landing is prohibited or restricted

damage or delay to or suffered by the Charterer or any passengers due to

civil commotions, strikes, labor disputes, weather conditions, acts of
God, public enemies, quarantine, or due to the absence of any necessary
government approvals, or due to any other cause (whether of the same or

WHEREAS, Hawaiian and Charterer desire to set forth the charter fare
levels, flight schedules and other procedures to be followed, whereby Charterer
may purchase charter air transportation on Hawaiian,
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual obligations
hereinafter set forth, Hawaiian and Charterer agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1. GENERAL
SECTION 1.01 ENTIRE AGREEMENT.
The Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties
regarding the subject matter hereof, and, as of the commencement date,
supersedes all prior agreements, whether written or oral, between the
parties concerning the subject matter hereof.

<PAGE>
SECTION 2.02 REGULATORY COMPLIANCE.
The performance of both parties under this Agreement is subject to the receipt
by each party from the other on or before DECEMBER 31, 1998 of evidence
that the other party hereto has obtained all necessary government
regulatory approvals for conduct of the Charter Flights, such approvals to
include as to Hawaiian, but not be limited to, a grant of landing rights
from the Government of Tahiti, necessary for the period of this Agreement;
and as to Charterer, one of the following:
(a) A Cruise Line Waiver from the United States Department of Transportation
("DOT") authorizing the sale and operation by Charterer of the Charter
Flights or, in the alternative,
(b) Approval by the DOT of Form 4533 "Statement of Charter Operator or Direct
Air Carrier and Securer", Form 4532 "Statement of Charter Operator and

of __________________________________ and in a form reasonably acceptable
to Hawaiian, which shall remain valid until ninety (90) days after the
termination of this Agreement. Hawaiian shall promptly report to Charterer
any draw made against such letter of credit and, unless all Charter Flights
hereunder have been cancelled, Charterer shall immediately amend such
letter of credit to provide for additional security in the amount so
reported to have been drawn or cause to be issued a new letter of credit in
the amount so reported to have been drawn, so that the total security
availability to Hawaiian pursuant to the letter(s) of credit shall remain

SECTION 3.02 PAYMENTS.
Charterer shall make all payments due to Hawaiian under this Agreement,
including as listed in Attachment A, on a timely basis and in the manner
described herein. Hawaiian, Charterer and Bank of Hawaii shall enter into

remain in the Escrow Account until the rotation for which payment is made
has been completed, at which time such funds shall be paid to Hawaiian.
(a) If Charterer obtains a Cruise Line Waiver from the DOT, then payment shall
be made directly by Charterer into the Escrow Account as above described.
(b) In the event that Charterer does not receive a Cruise Line Waiver from the
DOT, then Charterer, Hawaiian, and the Charterer's bank (the "Depository
Bank") shall execute a depository agreement (the "Depository Agreement") in

shall automatically become a part of this Agreement. Payment from customers
for Charter Services shall be deposited directly into the Depository Bank.
Hawaiian shall be paid in accordance with the terms of the Depository
Agreement.
(c) If any rotation for which payment has been made into the Escrow Account is
not completed as the result of a failure by Hawaiian which is not otherwise
excused under Paragraph 11.13, then Bank of Hawaii shall dispose of such
funds in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, or,
alternatively, where a Cruise Line Waiver is in effect, such funds shall be
paid over to Charterer, unless otherwise provided in this Agreement.
SECTION 3.03 MANIFEST LIST.

regulations, this list shall contain full names of passengers and the
name and telephone number of a non-accompanying contact for each
passenger.
SECTION 3.04 NON-PAYMENT.
If full payment for any Charter Flight is not deposited into the Escrow Account
fifteen (15) days before the scheduled departure of said flight, Hawaiian
shall have the right to draw said payment under the Letter of Credit for
deposit into the Escrow Account and shall report said draw to Charterer
pursuant to Section 3.01 and the Escrow Agreement. Hawaiian shall have no
obligation to perform said Charter Flight and reserves the right to cancel
any Charter Flight unless, at least eleven (11) days prior to the scheduled
departure date for said Charter Flight, Charterer shall have amended the
Letter of Credit so that the availability thereunder is restored to
_______________ or have otherwise made full payment for the Charter Flight.
Such payments shall be paid, without notice, demand, counterclaim, set off
or deduction whatsoever.
SECTION 3.05 TRANSPORTATION TAXES AND FEES.
The charter price as set forth in Attachment A is exclusive of transportation
taxes, passenger facility charges (PFCs) and charter international terminal
fees (CITs). Charterer is responsible for these taxes/fees and any
additional airport assessments or passenger charges. Hawaiian will remit
any such payments directly to the appropriate entity and will process a
reconciliation invoice to Charterer on a monthly basis. Charterer will pay
such amounts directly to Hawaiian with the regular payment made fifteen
(15) days prior to rotation, if known, or within fifteen (15) days of
receipt of invoice from Hawaiian. Any decreases or increases in
transportation taxes, PFCs, or CITs, or other such costs will be passed
through by Hawaiian to Charterer.
SECTION 3.06 LATE CHARGES ON PAST-DUE PAYMENTS.
In the event Charterer fails to make any payment to Hawaiian when it becomes due
pursuant to this Agreement or fails to restore the Letter of Credit to
________________ within four (4) days of receipt of notice from Hawaiian of
such failure or draw, Charterer shall pay Hawaiian interest on the amount
in default from the due date to the date of payment at the then current

rate applicable by law, whichever is less.

<PAGE>
ARTICLE 4. PERFORMANCE OF CHARTER FLIGHTS
SECTION 4.01 AIRCRAFT AND REGULATIONS.
For each Charter Flight, Hawaiian shall provide the Aircraft properly maintained
and fueled. Charterer shall observe all operating rules and regulations of
Hawaiian and shall comply with all reasonable instructions of Hawaiian
employees and agents. The Aircraft and its crew will, at all times during
the course of Charter Flights, be under the exclusive command and control
of Hawaiian and Hawaiian's Pilot-In-Command whose orders will be strictly
complied with by Charterer and all passengers.
SECTION 4.02 FLIGHT SCHEDULE.
Hawaiian shall use its best efforts to carry the Charter passengers and their
baggage with reasonable dispatch. Departure times are subject to and may be
altered by routing, the availability of airport gate spaces, mechanicals,
weather conditions and other force majeure factors listed in Section 11.13.
Each party hereto agrees to use its best efforts in causing on-time
departure of all Charter Flights in accordance with the schedules which are
set forth in Attachment A or as otherwise agreed by Hawaiian and Charterer.
Hawaiian will not be liable to the Charterer or any other individual for
the transportation of any passenger who is not at the specified check-in
point at least one and one-half (1-1/2) hours prior to the scheduled
departure, and such flight may depart as scheduled without such
passenger(s).
SECTION 4.03 FLIGHT DELAY.
In the event of a delayed departure of a Charter Flight, Hawaiian shall use its
best efforts to accommodate passengers on other Hawaiian flights, including
Charter Flights, and shall provide to passengers the services described in
Exhibit C.
SECTION 4.04 SUBSTITUTE AIRCRAFT.
Under circumstances described in Section 11.13 or in the event of a mechanical
failure which results in an anticipated delay of twelve (12) hours for any
Charter Flight, Hawaiian will attempt to substitute comparable aircraft
(i.e., aircraft with at least 256 passenger seats, and the capability to
operate between LAX and PPT) of a type different from that specified in
Attachment A without penalty to Hawaiian, provided that any such
substitution shall not result in an increase in the charter price payable
by the Charterer. If Hawaiian is unable to perform for any reason set out
in paragraph 11.13 hereof or in the event of a mechanical failure which
results in a delay of twelve (12) hours for any Charter Flight, it may, to
the extent permitted by applicable government regulations, subcontract the
performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement, provided that
it shall not thereby be relieved of its obligations to Charterer and
provided that all passengers with reservations on such flights will be
protected by such substitution at no additional cost to Charterer. Hawaiian
shall provide Charterer with not less than nine (9) months written notice
in advance of any scheduled maintenance which would affect the flight
rotations noted in Attachment A hereto.

<PAGE>
SECTION 4.05 ALTERNATE ROUTING.
If, for any reason, Hawaiian determines, in the exercise of its reasonable
discretion, at any time, that the landing facilities at any point(s) on the
itinerary of the charter are inadequate for safe operation or if landing is
prohibited or restricted by law, Hawaiian may substitute in place thereof
the nearest point at which, in Hawaiian's sole judgment, suitable landing
facilities are available and landing can be made. In this event, the
parties shall share equally in the costs for the transportation and all
additional costs of whatever nature, of the passengers to the original
destination.
SECTION 4.06 ALTERNATE LANDING.
Hawaiian shall not be liable for loss, injury, damage or delay to or suffered by
the Charterer or any passengers or consigned cargo due to landing at an
airport or at a destination other than as contracted, or due to a failure
to stop at any contracted intermediate airport, or due to any flight
interruption, delay or cancellation caused by riots, wars, civil
commotions, strikes, labor disputes, weather conditions, acts of God,
public enemies, quarantine, or due to any other cause (whether of the same
or different nature) beyond Hawaiian's control. In the event any of the
foregoing shall occur, Hawaiian shall have the right, without any
liability, to cancel any portion of this Agreement affected by the above.
SECTION 4.07 INFLIGHT SERVICE.
Hawaiian shall staff each Charter Flight with an inflight crew as listed in
Attachment A. Inflight service will be provided as described on Attachment
A. If requested by Charterer, Hawaiian will provide duty free sales on the
Charter Flights.
SECTION 4.08 CUSTOMER SERVICE HANDLING.
Hawaiian will provide customer service agents, either Hawaiian employees or
agents under contract with Hawaiian for ground service, at each origin and
destination point to provide dedicated service for the Charter Flights in a
manner consistent with the "business class" service provided inflight, as
listed in Attachment A.
SECTION 4.09 PASSENGERS' AND CONSIGNORS' TRAVEL DOCUMENTS.
Charterer and all passengers and all cargo consignors shall comply with all
laws, regulations, orders, demands and travel requirements of all states
and countries to be flown from, to or over and shall comply with all of
Hawaiian's associated rules and instructions. Charterer and all passengers
and all cargo consignors and consignees shall present all exit, entry,
health and other documents required by the laws, rules or regulations, of
the states or countries concerned. Hawaiian reserves the right to refuse
carriage to any passenger or refuse to carry any cargo on Charter Flights
if, in Hawaiian's sole judgment, the required documents have not been
completed or the applicable laws, regulations, orders, demands or travel
requirements have not been complied with, and Hawaiian shall not be liable
for loss or expense suffered by any passenger or cargo consignor due to its
failure to comply with the requirements listed in this paragraph.
6
<PAGE>
Charterer will provide appropriate information on required travel
documentation to all passengers. Charterer agrees to pay for the
transportation of all persons or baggage that, on government regulation or
order, is required to be returned to the point of origin or elsewhere owing
to inadmissibility into a state or country, whether of transit or
destination, if information provided to Hawaiian was fraudulent. Hawaiian
shall be responsible for the expense of transportation of all persons or
baggage that, on government regulation or order, is required to be returned
to the point of origin or elsewhere if Hawaiian boarded passengers without
the proper documentation. If Hawaiian is required to pay or deposit any
fine or penalty or make any expenditure by reason of a failure to comply
with the laws, rules or regulations of the states or countries concerned,
Charterer shall reimburse Hawaiian for all amounts so paid or deposited and
any expenditures so incurred.
SECTION 4.10 INSPECTION.
Passengers will be required to comply with the requirements of Customs, United
States Department of Agriculture, Airport Security Personnel and any other
governmental officials regarding the inspection of passenger baggage.
Hawaiian shall not require Charterer to assist with Security Directive
SD-96-05B relating to profile screening.
SECTION 4.11 PASSENGER TICKETING.
Hawaiian will provide ticket jackets which Charterer will provide to all
passengers. Each ticket jacket will incorporate by reference this Agreement
and will include Hawaiian's Terms of Contract of Carriage and Warsaw
Convention limitations on liability. In the event of any inconsistency, the
terms of this Agreement shall prevail. Hawaiian authorizes Charterer to act
as its agent for the sole purpose of issuing tickets for Charter Flights
pursuant to this Agreement.
SECTION 4.12 UNUSED CAPACITY.
If the Charterer does not use all of the passenger space on any Charter Flight,
Hawaiian reserves the right to utilize said space with written consent from
the Charterer. Any revenue collected by Hawaiian for usage of such space
shall be paid over to Charterer.
SECTION 4.13 CARGO UTILIZATION.
As part of this Agreement, Charterer has the right to utilize the cargo space on
the Charter Flights as necessary to service its cruise vessels in Tahiti
and will pay Hawaiian handling charges for cargo shipments at rates/fees to
be provided by Hawaiian and will pay any related duties or fees levied on
such cargo. Charterer agrees to notify Hawaiian as early as possible, but
no later than ten (10) days before each Charter Flight of the amount of its
cargo usage for said Cargo Flight. Any cargo space on the Charter Flights
not utilized by Charterer may be utilized by Hawaiian for commercial or
company usage. Charterer and Hawaiian shall make every effort to
communicate with each other in a timely fashion regarding existence and
utilization of unused cargo space.
7
<PAGE>
SECTION 4.14 NO SHOW PASSENGERS.
Hawaiian shall not be responsible or liable for the transportation of passengers
who fail to report at the specified Hawaiian check-in point at the airport
one and one-half (1-1/2) hour prior to the scheduled departure time of the
flights, or who are, through no fault of Hawaiian's, not aboard at time of
departure. If one or more passengers fail to so report or board, Hawaiian
may depart as scheduled and shall in no way be responsible for or to such
individual but shall be deemed to have completed its contractual obligation
to Charterer.
SECTION 4.15 ADDITIONAL USE OF AIRCRAFT; DEVIATIONS FROM SCHEDULE.
When not in service pursuant to the schedule established in Attachment A to this
Agreement, the Aircraft remains available to Hawaiian for other operations,
and Hawaiian agrees to provide notification to Charterer immediately upon
negotiation of any such other operations.
(a) Charterer may, on not less than ninety (90) days notice to Hawaiian of the
points to be serviced and number and dates of rotations, charter the
Aircraft for other charter flights between different pairs of points, at
rates and under terms and conditions to be agreed between the parties
subject to availability of the Aircraft.
(b) Any deviations from the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement that
are subsequently made at the request of the Charterer, or caused by actions
of the Charterer, which result in an increase in costs to Hawaiian, shall
be billed to Charterer at a rate to be agreed between the parties, provided
that such rate, at a minimum, covers all of Hawaiian's costs plus _____.
SECTION 4.16 PASSENGER AND BAGGAGE LIMITATIONS.
Passengers and baggage will be carried within the space and weight limitations
of the Aircraft, said limitations to be established solely at the
discretion of Hawaiian. Hawaiian will have no responsibility for any
baggage which exceeds the space and weight limitations of the Aircraft, and
such baggage will be at the disposition and the expense of the Charterer.
Baggage limitations per passenger are two (2) checked bags, each having
linear dimensions no greater than 80", with a maximum weight of 70 pounds
each, and additionally two (2) unchecked bags having maximum linear
dimensions of 41", which may be carried on board the aircraft, unless such
limitations are reduced by governmental action, in which event the lower
limits shall apply. Hawaiian reserves the right to charge each passenger
for any baggage in excess of the maximum set forth herein at the applicable
excess baggage charges established in Hawaiian's Terms of Contract of
Carriage.
All excess baggage will be accepted on a space available basis. Hawaiian
will not accept liability for any expenses, including delivery, resulting
from the delayed delivery of such baggage.

<PAGE>
SECTION 4.17 CHARTER CANCELLATION (OBLIGATION TO PASSENGERS).
If either party hereto, apart from any reason provided in Section 11.13 hereof,
elects to cancel one or more segments of any Charter Flight or group of
flights, or defaults on any provision of this Agreement, which default
results in cancellation of one or more segments of any Charter Flight or
group of flights, then it shall be the sole responsibility of the party
defaulting or electing to cancel to provide return transportation to the
point of origin, if necessary, for all passengers, with no additional
expense to the non-defaulting/non-electing party. Hawaiian will exercise
its best efforts to arrange the necessary transportation, provided that if
the cancellation is due to Charterer's default or election, Charterer will
reimburse Hawaiian for its incremental expense.
SECTION 4.18 DENIED BOARDING COMPENSATION.
Hawaiian shall make good efforts to provide alternative travel necessary due to
an overbooking situation. Charterer shall reimburse Hawaiian its actual
documented costs and expenses for such alternative travel within ten (10)
days of submission of invoice for such alternative travel.
ARTICLE 5. FUEL
SECTION 5.01 FUEL SURCHARGE.
Charterershall pay for fuel based on the Fuel Surcharge Price Range and
application thereof as incorporated in Attachment A hereto. Any changes in
the Fuel Surcharge Price during the term of this Agreement shall be passed
through to Charterer. If the Fuel Surcharge Price falls below the low end
of the range provided in Attachment A, Charterer will be credited the
balance; if the actual Fuel Surcharge Price increases above the high end of
the range provided in Attachment A, Charterer will be charged for the
difference. Hawaiian will notify Charterer on or before the 25th day of
each month after commencement of operations hereunder of the net amount of
the total Fuel Surcharge Price costs incurred in the preceding month by
Hawaiian pursuant to this Agreement. Within fifteen (15) days after such
notification, Charterer shall pay Hawaiian any additional amount due to
Hawaiian above the basic Fuel Surcharge Price or Hawaiian shall credit
Charterer's account any balance due to a decrease below the basic Fuel
Surcharge Price.
SECTION 5.02 FUEL AVAILABILITY.
The provision of all necessary fuels, lubricants and other necessary aircraft
fluids is the sole obligation of Hawaiian, and Hawaiian hereby covenants
that all fuels, lubricants and the like necessary for operation of the
Charter Flights provided herein, will be available at all times as
required, except as provided in Sections 11.13. Any breach of this
provision shall be deemed a material breach of the Agreement.

<PAGE>
ARTICLE 6. SPECIAL SERVICES AND CHARGES
In the event Charterer requests, in writing, Hawaiian's assistance in securing
ground transportation for passengers or baggage, hotel reservations or other
services, Hawaiian shall make supplier recommendations and suggestions but
Charterer shall perform its own negotiations and bear the cost of such services
and all risks of injury, damage or loss arising out of such services.
ARTICLE 7. CHARTER ELIGIBILITY
SECTION 7.01 CHARTERER'S COMPLIANCE WITH DOT REGULATIONS.
Charterer and its agents, and all passengers shall be deemed to have notice of
and shall comply in all respects with Parts 207 and 208 of the Economic
Regulations or Part 380 of the Special Regulations of the DOT and all other
applicable laws, rules, or regulations (the "Regulations"). Should Hawaiian
reasonably determine that the Charterer, its agents or any passengers have
failed to comply with any of the Regulations, Hawaiian shall provide
immediate notice to Charterer and afford Charterer a right to cure such
failure for a period of fifteen (15) days or such shorter period as shall
end eleven (11) days before the next scheduled Charter Flight. If such
failure is not cured to Hawaiian's satisfaction, Hawaiian shall have the
right without penalty, return of deposits, or payments and damages, to
cancel a Charter Flight or refuse to board any of the passengers. A copy of
Part 207 and Part 380 has been provided to Charterer.
SECTION 7.02 CHARTERER FURNISHED DOCUMENTS.
The Charterer and its agents shall furnish Hawaiian in a timely manner with all
documents required by the Regulations, including, but not limited to, load
manifests, passenger lists, certifications and such other supporting
documentation as may be necessary for Hawaiian to obtain traffic rights for
the Charter Flight(s) in any state or country. Charterer acknowledges that,
once approved, any prospectus filed with the DOT will expire one (1) year
from the date of approval and that it must file a new prospectus with the
DOT prior to that expiration.
SECTION 7.03 CHARTERER BREACHES OF REGULATIONS.
Charterer agrees to give, at its own expense, such notice to the passengers
and/or consignors as Hawaiian shall request in the event the Charterer or
any charter participant breaches any of the Regulations and thereby causes
or threatens to cause delay or cancellation of a Charter Flight or
cancellation of any of the charter participants thereon. Hawaiian shall
incur no liability of any nature to Charterer, its agents, any travel
company or any charter participants as a result of giving such notice, or
refraining therefrom, whether or not such breach shall, in fact, cause or
result in the delay or cancellation of a Charter Flight. Charterer agrees
to indemnify Hawaiian and hold Hawaiian harmless from any claims, demands
or suits brought by Charterer's agents, any travel company or any charter
participants, defending such claims, demands or suits, arising out of
Charterer's giving the notice requested by
10
<PAGE>
Hawaiian, or refraining therefrom, whether or not such breach shall,
in fact, cause or result in the delay or cancellation of a Charter Flight.
ARTICLE 8. LIABILITY
SECTION 8.01 CHARTERER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO PASSENGERS.
Charterer acknowledges that it shall solely be responsible to passengers for
furnishing all services not required to be performed by Hawaiian, as set
forth in the Charterer's charter prospectus and solicitation material
distributed in connection with said Charter Flights. Charterer agrees to
hold Hawaiian free and harmless from and to defend Hawaiian and keep
Hawaiian indemnified against any and all claims, actions, or demands
brought or asserted against Hawaiian, including any legal fees and expenses
incurred in the defense of such claims, arising out of any act or omission
of the Charterer, its agents, servants or employees.
SECTION 8.02 BAGGAGE LIABILITY; LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY; EXCLUSIONS FROM
LIABILITY; DECLARATION OF HIGHER VALUE.
The Terms of Contract of Carriage, which are attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and
