Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Business and Basis of Presentation

Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. (the Company or Holdings) is a holding company incorporated in the State of Delaware. The Company’s primary asset is its sole ownership of all issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (Hawaiian). Hawaiian was originally incorporated in January 1929 under the laws of the Territory of Hawaii. Hawaiian became a Delaware corporation and the Company’s direct wholly-owned subsidiary in June 2005 pursuant to a short-form merger described in more detail in Note 2.

Hawaiian is engaged primarily in the scheduled air transportation of passengers and cargo amongst the Hawaiian Islands and between the Hawaiian Islands and certain cities in the Western United States, the South Pacific and Australia. Based on the total number of miles flown by revenue passengers in 2005, Hawaiian was the largest airline headquartered in Hawaii and the sixteenth largest domestic airline in the United States. At June 30, 2006, Hawaiian’s operating fleet consisted of 11 leased Boeing 717-200 aircraft and 14 leased Boeing 767-300ER aircraft. Additionally, Hawaiian purchased four used Boeing 767-300 aircraft during the first quarter of 2006 that are currently being overhauled and modified for entry into revenue service later this year.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s results of operations and financial position for the periods presented. Due to seasonal fluctuations common to the airline industry and Hawaiian, the results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the entire year. Additionally, and as is discussed in Note 4, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123R), effective January 1, 2006. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. and Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.

On April 1, 2003, following Hawaiian’s bankruptcy filing, the Company deconsolidated Hawaiian for financial reporting purposes and accounted for its ownership of Hawaiian using the cost method of accounting. The Company reconsolidated Hawaiian pursuant to SFAS No. 94, “Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries”, upon Hawaiian’s emergence from bankruptcy protection on June 2, 2005 in a transaction accounted for as a business combination. As a result, for financial reporting purposes, the Company was a holding company with no business operations or properties for the period April 1, 2003 through June 1, 2005. As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2006, the terms Company, we, our, and us refer to: (i) Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, with respect to the periods prior to and including March 31, 2003; (ii) Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. only, with respect to the period from April 1, 2003 through June 1, 2005; and (iii) Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. and its only consolidated subsidiary, Hawaiian Airlines, Inc., with respect to the periods from and after June 2, 2005.

2. Reorganization and Reacquisition of Hawaiian

On March 21, 2003, Hawaiian filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Hawaii. Holdings did not file for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. On May 30, 2003, a bankruptcy trustee was selected to serve in connection with the Chapter 11 case and thereafter operated Hawaiian under the jurisdiction of the bankruptcy court and applicable provisions of the bankruptcy code until June 2, 2005, the effective date of Hawaiian’s joint plan of reorganization (the Joint Plan) and its emergence from bankruptcy. The Joint Plan provided for payment in full of all allowed claims, including unsecured claims, by a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock. The Joint Plan also provided for the merger of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc., a Hawaii corporation, with and into HHIC, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (HHIC), with HHIC as the surviving entity immediately changing its name to Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.

The Company’s reacquisition of Hawaiian was accounted for as a business combination, with the assets and liabilities of Hawaiian recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements at their fair values as of June 2, 2005, and the results of Hawaiian’s operations included in the Company’s consolidated results of operations from that date. The following table presents pro forma financial information as if the business combination had occurred on January 1, 2005.

Hawaiian is a predecessor of the Company, as defined in Rule 405 of Regulation C under the Securities Act. As a result, separate financial statements of Hawaiian, prepared in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the SEC, as of June 1, 2005 and for the periods April 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005 and January 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005 are included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

3. Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force Consensus 03-6, “Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method Under SFAS Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share” (EITF 03-6), securities that participate in dividends and/or other distributions as if they were common stock are considered to be participating securities. Certain provisions of EITF 03-6 dictate that in certain circumstances, participating securities participate only in the earnings but not in the losses of an entity.  Accordingly, the Company was required to use the two-class method related to certain participating warrants it issued in connection with funding the Joint Plan to calculate basic and diluted net income per common stock share for the three months ended June 30, 2005.

The weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding used in the calculations of basic and diluted net loss per common stock share for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 includes approximately 617,000 contingently issuable shares related to the Company’s stock bonus plan. The weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding used in the calculations of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common stock share for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 includes approximately 478,000 and 240,000 contingently issuable shares, respectively, related to this stock bonus plan, which plan is discussed further in Note 4 below.

Options to acquire approximately 2.6 million weighted average shares of the Company’s common stock were not included in the calculations of diluted net loss per common stock share for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 because they were anti-dilutive. Options to acquire approximately 0.9 million weighted average shares and 1.6 million weighted average shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, were not included in the calculations of diluted net income (loss) per common stock share for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 because they were either out-of-the-money or anti-dilutive, as applicable.

8




Approximately 12.7 million and 13.3 million weighted average potential common stock shares related to convertible debt securities and common stock warrants were not included in the calculations of diluted net loss per common stock share for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, as they were anti-dilutive. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005, the calculations of diluted net income (loss) per common share exclude approximately 4.4 million weighted average potential common stock shares and approximately 2.2 million weighted average potential common stock shares related to convertible debt securities as they were anti-dilutive.

4. Stock Option and Stock Bonus Plans

Adoption of SFAS 123R

The Company has a stock option plan for its officers and non-employee directors and a stock bonus plan for all of its other employees. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS 123R to account for grants and awards made under these plans. SFAS 123R superseded Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB 25) and replaces SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (SFAS 123). Prior to its adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company accounted for its stock option and stock bonus plans pursuant to APB 25 and related Interpretations, and the pro forma disclosure provisions of SFAS 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure”.

SFAS 123R requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of such awards on the dates they are granted. The fair value of the awards is estimated using option-pricing models for grants of stock options, or the fair value at the measurement date (usually the grant date) for awards of stock. The resultant cost is recognized as compensation expense over the period of time during which an employee is required to provide services to the company (the service period) in exchange for the award, the service period generally being the vesting period of the award.

Under APB 25, no compensation expense was recognized for grants of stock options if on the date the option was granted its exercise price was equal to or more than the fair value of the underlying stock. Although SFAS 123, as amended, encouraged the recognition of expense associated with the fair value of grants of stock options, SFAS 123 allowed for the presentation in the notes to financial statements of pro forma net income (loss) as if a company had accounted for granted employee stock options using the fair value method prescribed by SFAS 123.

Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized stock-compensation expense were reported as operating cash flows.  Under SFAS No. 123R such excess tax benefits are reported as financing cash flows.  Although total cash flow under SFAS No. 123R remains unchanged from what would have been reported under prior accounting standards, net operating cash flows are reduced and net financing cash flows are increased due to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R.  For the six months ended June 30, 2006, there were excess tax benefits of $0.1 million, which are classified as financing cash flows at the accompanying consolidated condensed statement of cash flows.

In November 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position No. 123R-3, “Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards” (FSP No. 123R-3).  FSP No. 123R-3 provides an elective alternative transition method of calculating the additional paid-in capital pool of excess tax benefits to the transition method required by SFAS No. 123R.  The Company may take up to one year from the effective date of FSP No. 123R-3 to evaluate the alternative transition methods prior to making an election of which transition method it will use.

Stock Option Plan

The Company accounts for all stock options granted on and after January 1, 2006 pursuant to SFAS 123R. For stock option awards granted prior to January 1, 2006, but for which the vesting periods were not complete, the Company adopted the modified prospective transition method permitted by SFAS 123R. Under this method the Company accounts for such unvested awards on a prospective basis over their remaining vesting periods as of January 1, 2006, with expense being recognized in the statement of operations using the grant-date fair values previously calculated for the SFAS 123 pro forma disclosures presented below and for other applicable periods ended prior to January 1, 2006.

Options made under the Company’s stock option plan have exercise prices equal to the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the grant date, generally vest and become fully exercisable over periods ranging from two to four years and have ten-year terms. For grants that are subject to graded vesting over the service period, the Company historically recognized for purposes of the pro forma disclosures permitted by SFAS 123 and will continue to recognize expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. None of the Company’s grants include performance-based or market-based vesting conditions.

9




For options granted prior and subsequent to January 1, 2006, the Company did and will continue to estimate their fair values using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. This option-pricing model requires the Company to make several assumptions regarding the key variables used in the model to calculate the fair value of its stock options. The risk-free interest rate used by the Company is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect for the expected lives of the options at their dates of grant. The Company uses a divided yield of zero as it never has paid nor intends to pay dividends on its common stock. The expected lives of stock options granted on and subsequent to January 1, 2006 were determined using the “simplified” method prescribed in the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. The most critical assumption used in calculating the fair value of stock options is the expected volatility of the entity’s common stock. Due to Hawaiian’s bankruptcy and the thin liquidity of the Company’s common stock during that period, the Company believes that the historic volatility of its common stock is not a reliable indicator of future volatility. Accordingly, the Company has used a stock volatility factor based on the stock volatility factors of a peer comparison group over a period of time approximating the estimated lives of its stock options.

Stock option activity during the six months ended June 30, 2006 is summarized in the following table.

On February 13, 2006 and May 31, 2006, options to acquire 36,000 shares and 120,000 shares of common stock were granted to certain of the Company’s officers and its non-employee board members, respectively. The options granted in February 2006 have exercise prices of $3.80 per share, vest on the third anniversary of their grant date and have ten-year contractual lives. The options granted in May 2006 have exercise prices of $3.85 per share, vest successively at the rate of one-third per year beginning on May 31, 2007 and have ten-year contractual lives. The aggregate fair value of the options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2006 was estimated at approximately $309,000, or $1.98 weighted average per share, using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model and the following weighted average assumptions:  risk- free interest rate of approximately 5.0%; dividend yield of zero; expected volatility of approximately 47%; and an expected option life of six years.

In June 2005, options to acquire approximately 582,000 common shares were granted to certain of Hawaiian’s officers, which options have exercise prices of $5.00 per share. The stock options vest as follows: options to acquire 300,000 shares vest (vested) in three equal tranches on January 1, 2006, January 2007 and January 1, 2008; options to acquire approximately 55,000 shares vest (vested) successively at the rate of one-half per year beginning on June 10, 2006; and the remainder of the options vest on June 10, 2008. All of these stock options have ten-year contractual lives. The aggregate fair value of these grants was estimated at approximately $1.8 million, or $3.08 per share, using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model and the following assumptions:  risk- free interest rate of approximately 4.0%; dividend yield of zero; expected volatility of approximately 58%; and an expected option life of seven years.

In January 2006 and February 2006, options were exercised to acquire a total of 322,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The total intrinsic value of these exercised stock options was approximately $0.3 million, and the Company received cash proceeds of approximately $0.9 million.

Stock Bonus Plan

Under the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. Stock Bonus Plan, which became effective June 2, 2005, Hawaiian’s eligible employees were granted 1.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock. Approximately 275,000 and 608,000 of these shares were distributed to Hawaiian’s employees on February 14, 2006 and May 1, 2006, respectively, and the remaining shares will be distributed on May 1, 2007. The May 2006 distribution was and the May 2007 distribution will be based on each eligible employee’s pro rata share of the applicable cumulative W-2 wages for the tax year preceding the year of each distribution. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company recognized approximately $0.7 million and $1.3 million of compensation expense, respectively, related to the May 2007 distribution, which expense is included in wages and benefits in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for those periods. The Company recognized compensation expense of $2.9 million during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 related to the February 2006 and May 2006 distributions.

Impact on Earnings due to Adoption of SFAS 123R

Total share-based compensation expense recognized by the Company under SFAS 123R was $1.2 million and $2.4 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, which was $0.7 million (or $0.02 per basic and diluted net loss per common stock share) and $1.3 million (or $0.03 per basic and diluted net loss per common stock share) more than what share-based compensation expense would have been under the previous accounting under APB 25 for those two periods in 2006. As of June 30, 2006, $3.7 million of compensation expense related to unvested stock options (inclusive of $0.4 million for stock options granted to non-employee directors) attributable to future performance had not yet been recognized, which related expense will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately two years. The Company will also recognize approximately $2.2 million of compensation expense during the period July 1, 2006 through April 30, 2007 related to the final distribution of the Company’s common stock to be made under its stock bonus plan in May 2007.

The following table illustrates the pro forma effects on net income (loss) for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005 as if the Company had accounted for the grants of employee stock options using the fair value method prescribed by SFAS 123. The fair values for the stock options were estimated at the dates granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model.

5. Debt and Common Stock Warrants

On March 13, 2006, the Company, as guarantor, and Hawaiian, as borrower, amended the two secured credit facilities (the Senior Credit Facility and Term B Credit Facility) Hawaiian entered into in June 2005 to help fund the Joint Plan. As a result of these amendments, the credit facilities were cumulatively increased by approximately $91.3 million. As of June 30, 2006, the Company’s amended credit facilities consisted of a $60.0 million, 9.4% variable interest rate amortizing term loan due December 10, 2010, a $72.5 million, 9.0% fixed interest rate non-amortizing term loan due March 11, 2011 and a $25 million revolving line of credit under which the Company had issued approximately $5.5 million in letters of credit. The amendment of the Senior Credit Facility was accounted for as a modification, and the Company expensed $1.4 million of legal and other professional fees paid to third parties in connection with amending that facility. The amendment of the Term B Credit Facility was accounted for as an extinguishment, and the Company incurred a nonoperating loss of $1.7 million in connection with amending that facility.

In connection with the amendment of the Term B Credit Facility in March 2006, the Company issued warrants to the Term B Credit Facility lenders and their affiliates to purchase 4,050,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the Term B Warrants). As is discussed at Note 10 below, approximately 500,000 of these warrants expired on July 11, 2006. The remaining Term B Warrants are exercisable for a period of three years from the date of issuance, have an exercise price of $5.00 per share, and contain a feature whereby the Company can elect to force the exercise of the Term B Warrants at anytime after the average closing price of the Company’s common stock is at or above $9.00 per share for 30 consecutive calendar days. A portion of the borrowings under the $72.5 million term loan equal to the relative fair value of the Term B Warrants when they were issued, or $6.3 million, was allocated to capital in excess of par value. The resulting debt discount is being amortized through March 2011 using the effective interest method (approximately 11.3%), and the unamortized balance of the discount was $6.0 million as of June 30, 2006.

On April 21, 2006, the Company redeemed all of the then outstanding 5.0% subordinated convertible notes it issued in connection with funding the Joint Plan for approximately $55.9 million, inclusive of an approximate $2.6 million prepayment premium and approximately $1.0 million of accrued and unpaid interest to that date. The Company incurred a $28.0 million nonoperating loss on the redemption of the notes due principally to the accelerated amortization of the remaining discount associated with the notes when they were initially issued in June 2005. Warrants to acquire approximately 6.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock issued to the former holders of these notes remain outstanding under their original terms until June 1, 2010.

The Company sponsors three tax-qualified defined benefit pension plans covering certain of its contract labor groups and its non-contract salaried employees. The Company made scheduled contributions of $3.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2006. The Company’s net periodic defined pension and other retirement benefit expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 includes only the period June 2, 2005 through June 30, 2005 when Hawaiian was consolidated by the Company.

7. Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $4.3 million and $4.5 million for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, as the tax benefit from operating losses was offset by an increase in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and the non-deductibility of certain expenses. Utilization of the Company’s deferred tax assets is based on the Company’s ability to generate taxable income in the future years.  In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the Company’s deferred tax assets will not be

12




realized. The ultimate realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets is dependent upon its ability to carry back net operating losses (NOL) to periods in which the Company or Hawaiian had taxable income, the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible, or the future utilization of the resulting NOL carryforwards prior to expiration. As of June 30, 2006, the Company recognized a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.

The IRS is currently in the process of examining Hawaiian’s income tax returns for 2003. In addition, the State of Hawaii Department of Taxation is currently in the process of examining Hawaiian’s general excise tax returns for 2001 through 2005, in addition to the tax credit for research activities claimed on the 2001 income tax return and the Hawaii capital goods excise tax credit claimed on the 2001 through 2004 income tax returns. Hawaiian cannot currently determine the impact of any potential assessments resulting from these examinations on its future financial position, results of operations and liquidity. Any additional taxes paid by the Company related to any periods prior to the effective date of Hawaiian’s plan of reorganization will result in a corresponding increase in goodwill; conversely, a reduction in the Company’s income tax liability resulting for the State of Hawaii examination will result in a decrease in goodwill.

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, ‘‘Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - An interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109’’ (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting and disclosure requirements for uncertainty in tax positions, as defined. Under FIN 48, a tax position must be at least more-likely-than-not to be sustained, based solely on its technical merits, upon examination by the relevant taxing authority before a benefit is recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of FIN 48, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.

8. Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive loss for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 was $22.2 million and $25.0 million, respectively, and included changes in the fair value and reclassifications into earnings of amounts previously deferred related to the Company’s fuel forward contracts, which contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges in accordance with SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” Total comprehensive income (loss) for the comparable three-month and six-month periods in 2005 was $1.4 million and $(0.7) million, respectively.

9. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Litigation and Contingencies

The Company is subject to legal proceedings arising in the normal course of its operations. Management does not anticipate that the disposition of such proceedings will have a material effect upon the Company’s financial statements.

Los Angeles Airport Operating Terminal

In December 1985, Hawaiian entered into an agreement with other airlines, as amended, for 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 leases the Facilities from the Regional Airports Improvement Corporation under an agreement accounted for as an operating lease. 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.

General Guarantees and Indemnifications

The Company is the lessee under certain real estate leases. It is common in such commercial lease transactions for the lessee to agree to indemnify the lessor and other related third parties for tort liabilities that arise out of or relate to lessee’s use or occupancy of the leased premises. In some cases, this indemnity extends to related liabilities arising from the negligence of the indemnified parties, but usually excludes any liabilities caused by their gross negligence or willful misconduct. Additionally, the lessee typically indemnifies such parties for any environmental liability that arises out of or relates to its use of the leased premises. The Company expects that it is covered by insurance (subject to deductibles) for most tort liabilities and related indemnities described above with respect to real estate that it leases. The Company cannot estimate the potential amount of future payments, if any, under the foregoing indemnities and agreements.

10. Subsequent Events

On July 11, 2006, Hawaiian made a $10.0 million prepayment of the non-amortizing term loan under the amended Term B Credit Facility. This prepayment resulted in an approximate $1.0 million nonoperating loss due principally to the accelerated amortization of portions of the unamortized debt discount and issuance costs associated with the Term B Credit Facility.  Additionally, warrants to acquire approximately 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock that were issued to the Term B Credit Facility lenders in March 2006 expired pursuant to their terms on July 11, 2006.

Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (Debtor)

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Business and Basis of Presentation

Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (Hawaiian), is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. (Holdings), and is engaged primarily in the scheduled air transportation of passengers and cargo amongst the Hawaiian Islands and between the Hawaiian Islands and certain cities in the Western United States, the South Pacific and Australia.  Hawaiian was originally incorporated in January 1929 under the laws of the Territory of Hawaii and became a Delaware corporation on June 2, 2005 concurrent with its emergence from bankruptcy protection and merger with and into HHIC, Inc. (HHIC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings, with HHIC as the surviving entity immediately changing its name to Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.

Hawaiian is a “predecessor” of Holdings, as defined in Rule 405 of Regulation C of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).  As a result, financial information of Hawaiian as of June 1, 2005 and for the periods April 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005 and January 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005 are included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Holdings for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2006.  The accompanying financial statements of Hawaiian were prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Statement of Position 90-7 “Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code”, and do not give effect to any adjustments to the carrying value of assets or the amounts of liabilities of Hawaiian resulting from and occurring subsequent to the consummation of Hawaiian’s plan of reorganization on June 2, 2005.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have also been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Hawaiian’s results of operations and financial position for the periods presented. However, due to seasonal fluctuations common to the airline industry and Hawaiian, results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the entire year.

2.  Chapter 11 Proceedings and Reorganization

On March 21, 2003, Hawaiian filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Hawaii. Holdings did not file for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. On May 30, 2003, a bankruptcy trustee was selected to serve in connection with the Chapter 11 case and thereafter operated Hawaiian under the jurisdiction of the bankruptcy court and applicable provisions of the bankruptcy code until June 2, 2005, the effective date of Hawaiian’s joint plan of reorganization and its emergence from bankruptcy.

On March 11, 2005, the Company, together with the bankruptcy trustee, the unsecured creditors of Hawaiian, HHIC and RC Aviation LLC (which is currently Holdings’ largest stockholder), sponsored the Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (the Joint Plan) to provide for Hawaiian to emerge from bankruptcy. The Joint Plan provided for payment in full of all allowed claims, including unsecured claims, and provided for the merger of Hawaiian and HHIC as discussed in Note 1.

The Joint Plan was financed through the issuance of approximately 14.1 million shares of Holdings’ common stock, a private placement by Holdings of $60.0 million in 5.0% subordinated convertible notes, and by Hawaiian’s $75 million variable rate and fixed rate secured credit facilities.

3. Stock Compensation

Hawaiian accounts for stock options in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB 25) and related Interpretations. Under APB 25, no compensation expense is recognized for stock option grants if the exercise price of the stock option is more than the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant.  Hawaiian also adopted the pro forma disclosure features of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (SFAS 123), as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure”.  The following table illustrates the pro forma effect on net loss if Hawaiian had accounted for its employee stock options and awards granted using the fair value method prescribed by SFAS 123.  The fair value for the stock options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.

4. Liabilities Subject to Compromise

Under the Bankruptcy Code, pre-petition obligations of Hawaiian generally could not be enforced, and any actions to collect pre-petition indebtedness were automatically stayed, unless the stay was lifted by the Bankruptcy Court. Concurrent with its Chapter 11 filing, Hawaiian received approval from the Bankruptcy Court to: (i) pay certain pre-petition and post-petition employee wages, salaries, benefits and other employee obligations; (ii) pay vendors and other providers in the ordinary course for goods and services received from and after the Petition Date; (iii) honor customer service programs, including the HawaiianMiles program and ticketing policies; (iv) honor obligations arising prior to the Petition Date related to Hawaiian’s interline, clearinghouse, code sharing and other similar agreements; and (v) pay certain pre-petition taxes and fees, including transportation excise taxes, payroll taxes and passenger facility charges. Substantially all other pre-petition liabilities not mentioned above, which consisted primarily of lease-related claims and pre-petition accounts payable, were classified as liabilities subject to compromise and were settled under the Joint Plan, as further described in Note 2.

5. Reorganization Items, Net

Reorganization items, net represents amounts resulting directly from Hawaiian’s Chapter 11 proceedings and are presented separately in its statements of operations. Reorganization items for the periods April 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005 and January 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005 consist primarily of a $4.9 million reduction in liabilities subject to compromise resulting from the settlement of a claim by American Airlines for pre-petition aircraft rent and maintenance charges, interest earned on accumulated cash balances, and professional fees incurred in connection with Hawaiian’s Chapter 11 case.

6. Employee Benefit Plans

Net periodic defined pension and other retirement benefit expense for the periods April 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005 and January 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005 included the following components (in thousands):

7. Income Taxes

Hawaiian’s effective tax rates differ from the federal statutory rate of 35% due primarily to increases in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, the non-deductibility of certain reorganization related expenses, and state income taxes.  Due in part to limitations on the availability of Hawaiian’s net operating loss carryforwards to offset federal income taxes payable, Hawaiian has paid income taxes on its taxable earnings in both 2003 and 2004.  As a result, increases in net deferred tax assets created by temporary differences also result in increases in the valuation allowance and in the provision for income taxes.  As of June 1, 2005, Hawaiian recognized a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets.

18




The IRS is currently in the process of examining Hawaiian’s income tax returns for 2003. In addition, the State of Hawaii Department of Taxation is currently in the process of examining Hawaiian’s general excise tax returns for 2001 through 2005, in addition to the tax credit for research activities claimed on the 2001 income tax return and the Hawaii capital goods excise tax credit claimed on the 2001 through 2004 income tax returns. Hawaiian cannot currently determine the impact of any potential assessments resulting from these examinations on its future financial position, results of operations and liquidity.

8. Comprehensive Loss

Total comprehensive loss for the period April 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005 and for the period January 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005 was $42.8 million and $28.7 million, respectively. The difference between net loss and total comprehensive loss for those periods was due to changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments accounted for as cash flow hedges in accordance with SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, and to adjustments to Hawaiian’s minimum pension liability.

9.  Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, Hawaiian is subject to legal proceedings arising in the normal course of its operations. Management does not anticipate that the disposition of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect upon Hawaiian’s results of operations and financial condition. Furthermore, Hawaiian’s Chapter 11 filing automatically enjoined, or stayed, the continuation of any judicial or administrative proceeding or other actions against Hawaiian or its property to recover on, collect or secure a claim arising prior to the Petition Date.

In December 1985, Hawaiian entered into an agreement with other airlines, as amended, for 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 leases the Facilities from the Regional Airports Improvement Corporation under an agreement accounted for as an operating lease. 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.

Hawaiian is the lessee under various leases for real property.  It is common in such commercial lease transactions for the lessee to agree to indemnify the lessor and related third parties, if any, for tort liabilities that arise out of or relate to the lessee’s use or occupancy of the leased premises.  In some cases, this indemnity extends to related liabilities arising from the negligence of the indemnified parties, but usually excludes any liabilities caused by their gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Given the nature of its business, Hawaiian also typically indemnifies such parties for any environmental liability that might arise out of or relates to its use of the leased premises.  Although Hawaiian cannot estimate the potential amount of future liabilities that might be caused by the foregoing indemnities and lease agreements, if any, Hawaiian believes that it is covered by insurance (subject to deductibles) for most tort liabilities and related indemnities described above with respect to the real property that it leases.

Overview

Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. (the Company or Holdings) is a holding company incorporated in the State of Delaware. The Company’s primary asset is its sole ownership of all issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (Hawaiian). Hawaiian was originally incorporated in January 1929 under the laws of the Territory of Hawaii.  Hawaiian became a Delaware corporation and the Company’s direct wholly-owned subsidiary concurrent with its reorganization and reacquisition by the Company in June 2005 as is described in greater detail in Note 2 to Holdings financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Hawaiian is primarily engaged in the scheduled air transportation of passengers and cargo amongst the Hawaiian Islands (the interisland market) and between the Hawaiian Islands and certain cities in the Western United States (the transpacific market), the South Pacific and Australia (the South Pacific market). Based on the total number of miles flown by revenue passengers in 2005, Hawaiian was the largest airline headquartered in Hawaii and the sixteenth largest domestic airline in the United States. At June 30, 2006, Hawaiian’s operating fleet consisted of 11 leased Boeing 717-200 aircraft and 14 leased Boeing 767-300ER aircraft. Additionally, Hawaiian purchased four used Boeing 767-300 aircraft during the first quarter of 2006 that are currently being overhauled and modified for entry into revenue service later this year. Based in Honolulu, Hawaiian had 3,350 active employees as of June 30, 2006.

Despite increased competition in all of our markets, and particularly in our interisland and transpacific markets, our yield and load factor for the second quarter of 2006 increased to 12.17 cents and 86.9%, respectively, from 11.36 cents and 85.4% for the same quarter of 2005, which growth reflects the continuing favorable passenger demand for our competitive fares and excellent customer service. According to reports by the U.S. Department of Transportation, Hawaiian was the nation’s number one carrier for on-time performance, fewest flight cancellations and best baggage service reliability in 2005 and the first quarter of 2006, and Hawaiian had the best on-time performance and best baggage service reliability for the second quarter of 2006. Consumer travel surveys conducted by Conde Nast Traveler, Travel + Leisure, and Zagat all rank Hawaiian as the top domestic airline serving Hawaii, and in June 2006, we were named the nation’s top airline serving Hawaii in Travel + Leisure magazine’s 2006 World’s Best Service Awards.

In response to the strong customer demand for our services, we plan to increase capacity to certain of the U.S. West Coast cities we presently serve beginning in September with the first of the four 767-300 aircraft we acquired in the first quarter of 2006. The remaining three of these aircraft should be available for revenue service in our transpacific market one each in September 2006, October 2006 and November 2006, with one of the incremental aircraft to serve as a spare supporting our overall wide-body fleet. We believe that the combination of our increased schedule, our competitive fares and superior customer service will enable us to continue to be an effective competitor in this market. However, there are no assurances that potential downward pressures on our yields and load factors in the transpacific market due to capacity increases by Hawaiian and/or its competitors will not negatively and materially impact our future revenue in that market.

On June 9, 2006, Mesa Air Group, the parent company of Mesa Airlines (Mesa), began interisland service through its operating division, go!, with some one-way fares as low as $19, and by July 7, 2006, go! was operating 62 daily flights. Mesa’s entry into the interisland market initiated fare discounting (as recently as July 31, 2006, Mesa announced $29 one-way fares on certain flights) that was and is generally being matched by us and our other significant interisland competitors. As we experienced period-over-period passenger revenue and load factor gains in the interisland market for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same periods in 2005, and considering the limited period of time that Mesa has been operating in this market, we cannot reasonably predict the long-term effects on our results of operations and financial condition from Mesa’s presence in the interisland market or from any other potential actions by our other interisland competitors.

21




During the second quarter of 2006, we signed a letter agreement with the International Association of Machinists (IAM) that will allow us to use outsourcing as a means of controlling our future operating costs. The letter agreement pertains to our organized reservation agents and certain administrative staff and allows us to outsource the positions currently performed by these employees in exchange for providing them with job security. At present, we have made only limited and inconclusive investigations as to the possible cost savings from outsourcing the above positions.

In the first quarter of 2006, we purchased four used Boeing 767-300 aircraft for approximately $32 million, which acquisition was funded by a combination of cash and debt. These aircraft will be used exclusively on our transpacific routes beginning in September 2006 when the first of these aircraft is scheduled to be available for revenue service. The other three aircraft are scheduled for induction into our operating fleet one each in September 2006, October 2006 and November 2006. To support this growth in our 767 aircraft fleet, we have or will hire and/or recall a limited number of pilots, flight attendants and ground support personnel. However, due to possible delays in the timely completion of the overhauls and modifications of the aircraft and/or approval by the FAA to operate the aircraft on extended over water routes, there are no assurances that the aircraft will be available for their scheduled induction dates. See Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors, for additional information regarding the impact that any such delays might have on our results of operations.

General and other information about us is available at http://www.hawaiianair.com/about/. Our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K, as well as any amendments and exhibits to those reports, are available free of charge through our website as soon as reasonably practicable after we file them with, or furnish them to, the SEC.

Results of Operations

We incurred a net loss of $26.4 million ($0.56 per basic and diluted common stock share) on operating income of $9.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and a net loss of $38.7 million ($0.82 per basic and diluted common stock share) on operating income of $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Our results of operations for those two periods in 2006 were significantly and adversely affected by continuing increases in our cost of jet fuel and by nonoperating charges we incurred in connection with the redemption, extinguishment and modification of certain long-term debt we issued in June 2005 to help fund Hawaiian’s joint plan of reorganization. The cost of jet fuel is the single largest component of our operating expenses representing approximately 27.8% (or $59.2 million) and 27.2% (or $116.2 million), respectively, of our total operating expenses for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006.  In the second quarter of 2006 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006, we incurred nonoperating charges of $28.0 million and $31.1 million, respectively, related to our redemption in April 2006 of the then outstanding 5.0% subordinated convertible notes we issued in June 2005, and the extinguishment and modification in March 2006 of the two secured credit facilities Hawaiian entered into in June 2005. Additionally, pretax losses were negatively impacted by non-cash amortization and other continuing effects of $6.3 million and $13.4 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, associated with recording Hawaiian’s assets and liabilities at their fair values upon our reacquisition of Hawaiian on June 2, 2005.

Prior to the commencement of Hawaiian’s bankruptcy proceeding in March 2003, we consolidated Hawaiian. Following Hawaiian’s bankruptcy filing, we deconsolidated Hawaiian effective April 1, 2003 and prospectively accounted for our ownership interest in Hawaiian using the cost method of accounting until we regained control of Hawaiian on June 2, 2005.  Accordingly, our results of operations do not include Hawaiian’s operating results for the period April 1, 2003 through June 1, 2005.  During the periods April 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005 and April 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005, we generated no operating revenue, and our operating expenses consisted primarily of legal and other professional fees related to Hawaiian’s Chapter 11 case and consummation of its joint plan of reorganization, which expenses were approximately $0.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively. On June 2, 2005, the effective date of Hawaiian’s joint plan of reorganization, we reconsolidated Hawaiian as of such date for financial reporting purposes. Hawaiian’s emergence from bankruptcy was accounted for as a business combination (our acquisition of Hawaiian), with the assets and liabilities of Hawaiian recorded in our consolidated financial statements at their fair value as of June 2, 2005, and the results of operations of Hawaiian included in our consolidated results of operations since June 2, 2005.  Considering the significance of Hawaiian’s results of operations to our future results of operations and financial condition, as well as the extremely limited nature of our operations during the period January 1, 2005 through June 1, 2005, the historical results of operations of Holdings and Hawaiian for the three months and six months ended June, 2005 have been combined and discussed below in order to provide a more informative comparison with our consolidated results for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2006.

For the purposes of the following discussions of the results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, the term “the combined entity” refers to the consolidated results of operations of Holdings and Hawaiian for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, and the combined results of operations of Holdings and Hawaiian for the comparable periods in 2005.  As used in the context of this narrative, Holdings and Hawaiian refer to Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. and Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. in their individual capacities.

Three Months ended June 30, 2006 Compared to Three Months ended June 30, 2005

We incurred a net loss of $26.4 million on operating income of $9.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, compared to a net loss of $1.7 million on operating income of $0.2 million for the combined entity for the same three-month period in 2005.  Despite the $8.8 million improvement in operating income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2006 compared to operating income for the same three-month period in 2005, a $28.0 million nonoperating loss related to the redemption of certain debt in the second quarter of 2006 was principally responsible for the $24.7 million period-over-period increase in the combined entity’s net loss for the second quarter. The significant differences between other income and expense items for the second quarters of 2006 and 2005 are discussed below.

Operating Revenue. Operating revenue was $222.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, a 10.2% increase over operating revenue of $201.7 million for the same three-month period in 2005.  Scheduled passenger revenue was $202.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, compared to scheduled passenger revenue of $184.0 million for the same three-month period in 2005.  This $18.2 million, or 9.9%, increase in scheduled passenger revenue was due to improvements in traffic and yields in Hawaiian’s markets as is shown in the table below.

Other operating revenue was $20.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, and $17.8 million for the comparable three-month period in 2005.  The $2.3 million, or 13.3%, net increase in other operating revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was due primarily to an increase of $2.5 million in cargo and other operating revenue. The increase in cargo revenue was due primarily to an 18.4% improvement in cargo revenue per ton mile, and the increase in other operating revenue was due primarily to increases in ticket change fees and revenue earned from providing aircraft and traffic handling services to other airlines.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $213.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an $11.7 million increase from operating expenses of $201.6 million for the comparable three-month period in 2005.  The main components of the net increase in operating expenses for the three-month period in 2006 are shown in the table below and are discussed in the accompanying footnotes.

(a)          The increase in aircraft fuel expense was primarily due to an approximate 24% increase in the cost of jet fuel to an average of $2.15 per gallon for the three-month period ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same three-month period in 2005.  Aircraft fuel expense for the three-month period in 2006 included a gain of $1.7 million resulting from the fuel hedging programs in effect during that quarter compared to a fuel hedging gain of $2.1 million recognized in the comparable three-month period in 2005.

Hawaiian’s jet fuel operating expense in a particular period will reflect the spot price for jet fuel during that period, applicable fuel taxes, the cost of delivery to airports and the recognition of hedge gains or losses for the designated period. As a result of the designation of jet fuel forward contracts during 2005 at times when spot prices were generally higher than the settlement price of the contracts, Hawaiian’s reported fuel expense during 2006 will not reflect the full economic benefit of the forward contracts or the cash savings achieved by Hawaiian.

26




As illustrated below, Hawaiian’s average fuel expense per gallon in the second quarter of 2006 was $2.15, as a result of prevailing spot prices, taxes and the impact of jet fuel hedges designated for the quarter.

The settlement of the associated jet fuel forward contracts resulted in cash savings by Hawaiian of $5.2 million during the second quarter of 2006. See Item 3, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, for additional discussion of our jet fuel costs and related hedging program.

(b)          The net decrease in wages and benefits expense was due primarily to $4.7 million of compensation expense included in the second quarter of 2005 related to cash and stock bonuses associated with Hawaiian’s successful reorganization in June 2005.  The second quarter of 2006 included approximately $1.2 million of share-based compensation related to our adoption of SFAS 123R on January 1, 2006. Absent any additional stock option grants and/or cancellations, we estimate that we will recognize additional share-based compensation expense of approximately $2.7 million during the remainder of 2006 resulting from our stock option and stock bonus plans. See Note 4, “Stock Option and Stock Bonus Plans”, to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a more detailed discussion of the impact of SFAS 123R on the current and future periods’ results of operations.

(c)          The increase in maintenance materials and repairs expense was due primarily to increased costs incurred under power-by-the-hour (PBH) maintenance contracts for 767-300ER and 717-200 aircraft engines and other 767 and 717 aircraft components (e.g., auxiliary power units), and to increases in the number of 767 airframe and 717 landing gear overhauls performed in the second quarter of 2006 compared to the second quarter of 2005. The increase in expenses incurred under the PBH maintenance contracts was due in turn to the inclusion of additional 767 engines, increased hourly charges and increased utilization of our aircraft (approximately 3.3% more block hours were operated in the second quarter of 2006 compared to the same quarter of 2005). We expect aircraft maintenance expenses to continue to increase in future periods due in part to the four additional 767-300 aircraft we will induct into our fleet during the remainder of 2006, the aging of the rest of our aircraft fleet and as manufacturers’ warranties continue to expire for those aircraft we acquired when they were new.

(d)          The increase in depreciation and amortization is attributable primarily to $4.3 million of amortization of certain intangible assets recorded at June 2, 2005.

(e)          The net decrease in other operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was due primarily to decreases in legal and professional fees and advertising and promotional expense of $2.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The decrease in legal and professional fees for the second quarter of 2006 compared to the second quarter of 2005 was primarily due to reduced professional fees related to compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Hawaiian’s emergence from bankruptcy. The decrease in advertising and promotional expense for the three-month period in 2006 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to a reduction in the period-over-period growth in miles earned by the members of our frequent flyer program, HawaiianMiles.

Nonoperating Income and Expense.  Nonoperating expense was $31.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to nonoperating income of $16.2 million for the same three-month period in 2005. This $47.3 million period-over-period difference was due primarily to a $28.0 million loss incurred in the second quarter of 2006 in connection with the redemption of all of the then outstanding 5.0% subordinated convertible notes issued in June 2005, and to $15.8 million of gains recognized in the second quarter of 2005 related to jet fuel forward contracts that did not qualify for hedge accounting and the favorable settlement of a bankruptcy related claim.

Income Taxes.  Income tax expense was $4.3 million for the second quarter of 2006 compared to income tax expense of $18.1 million for the second quarter of 2005.  The tax provision and unusual effective tax rate are primarily due to the non-deductibility of certain expenses we incurred in connection with the redemption of the 5.0% subordinated convertible notes and an increase in net deferred tax assets requiring a full valuation allowance for the three-month period of 2006.

27




Six Months ended June 30, 2006 Compared to Six Months ended June 30, 2005

We incurred a net loss of $38.7 million on operating income of $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to a net loss of $3.4 million on operating income of $6.5 million for the combined entity for the same six-month period in 2005.  Nonoperating losses of $31.1 million related to the redemption of and modifications to certain debt instruments during the six-month period of 2006 were the primary causes of the $35.3 million period-over-period increase in the combined entity’s net loss for the 2006 period. The significant differences between other income and expense items for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 are discussed below.

Operating Revenue. Operating revenue was $432.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, a 10.5% increase over operating revenue of $391.1 million for the same six-month period in 2005.  Scheduled passenger revenue was $391.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to scheduled passenger revenue of $353.7 million for the same six-month period in 2005.  This $38.0 million, or 10.8%, increase in scheduled passenger revenue was due to improvements in traffic and yields in Hawaiian’s markets as is shown in the table below.

Other operating revenue was $40.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, and $37.4 million for the comparable six-month period in 2005.  The $2.9 million, or 7.8%, net increase in other operating revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was due primarily to increases of $3.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively, in other operating and cargo revenues, which increases were offset in part by a $2.4 million decrease in charter revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The increase in other operating revenue was due primarily to increases in ticket change fees and revenue earned from providing aircraft and traffic handling services to other airlines. The increase in cargo revenue was due primarily to a 17.2% improvement in cargo revenue per ton mile and increased excess passenger luggage fees.  The decrease in charter revenue was due almost entirely to a 37.8% decrease in charter revenue block hours operated in that period compared to the same six-month period in 2005.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $427.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, a $43.0 million increase from operating expenses of $384.6 million for the comparable six-month period in 2005.  The main components of the net increase in operating expenses for the six-month period in 2006 are shown in the table below and are discussed in the accompanying footnotes.

(a)          The increase in aircraft fuel expense was primarily due to an approximate 32% increase in the cost of jet fuel to an average of $2.12 per gallon for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same six-month period in 2005.  Aircraft fuel expense for the six-month period in 2006 included a loss of $1.7 million resulting from the fuel hedging programs in effect during that period, compared to a fuel hedging gain of $2.0 million recognized in the comparable six-month period in 2005.

Hawaiian’s jet fuel operating expense in a particular period will reflect the spot price for jet fuel during that period, applicable fuel taxes, the cost of delivery to airports and the recognition of hedge gains or losses for the designated period. As a result of the designation of jet fuel forward contracts during 2005 at times when spot prices were generally higher than the settlement price of the contracts, Hawaiian’s reported fuel expense during 2006 will not reflect the full economic benefit of the forward contracts or the cash savings achieved by Hawaiian.

As illustrated below, Hawaiian’s average fuel expense per gallon in the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $2.12, as a result of prevailing spot prices, taxes and the impact of jet fuel hedges designated for the quarter.

Although the hedge impact on Hawaiian’s jet fuel expense resulted in a reduction in operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2006, the settlement of the associated jet fuel forward contracts resulted in cash savings by Hawaiian of $7.4 million during that six-month period. See Item 3, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, for additional discussion of our jet fuel costs and related hedging program.

(b)          The increase in aircraft rent expense was due primarily to revaluing Hawaiian’s aircraft and spare engine leases to their fair values when Holdings reacquired Hawaiian in June 2005.

(c)          The increase in maintenance materials and repairs expense was due primarily to increased costs incurred under power-by-the-hour (PBH) maintenance contracts for 767-300ER and 717-200 aircraft engines and other 767 and 717 aircraft components (e.g., auxiliary power units), and to increases in the number of 767 airframe and 717 landing gear overhauls performed during the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same six-month period in 2005. The increase in expenses incurred under the PBH maintenance contracts was due in turn to the inclusion of additional 767 engines, increased hourly charges and increased utilization of our aircraft (approximately 4.3% more block hours were operated in the six-month period of 2006 compared to the same period of 2005). We expect aircraft maintenance expenses to continue to increase in future periods due in part to the four additional 767-300 aircraft we will induct into our fleet during the remainder of 2006, the aging of the rest of our aircraft fleet and as manufacturers’ warranties continue to expire for those aircraft we acquired when they were new.

29




(d)          The increase in depreciation and amortization is attributable primarily to $8.7 million of amortization of certain intangible assets recorded at June 2, 2005.

(e)          The net decrease in other operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was primarily due to decreases in advertising and promotional expense and legal and professional fees of $4.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively, which decreases were offset in part by an increase of $3.6 million in other purchased services. The decrease in advertising and promotional expense for the six-month period in 2006 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to a reduction in the period-over-period growth in miles earned by the members of our frequent flyer program, HawaiianMiles. The decrease in legal and professional fees for the six months ended June 2006 compared to the same six-month period in 2005 was primarily due to reduced professional fees related to compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Hawaiian’s emergence from bankruptcy. The increase in other purchased services for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005 was due primarily to processing fees incurred on increased credit card sales, fees paid for computer-based systems and services (e.g., Hawaiian’s website) and ancillary fees associated with Hawaiian’s two credit facilities.

Nonoperating Income and Expense. Nonoperating expense was $38.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to nonoperating income of $8.7 million for the same six-month period in 2005. This $47.3 million period-over-period difference was primarily due to $31.1 million of losses incurred during the six-month period of 2006 related to the redemption of the 5.0% subordinated convertible notes we issued and modifications to the two credit facilities we undertook in  June 2005 to help fund Hawaiian’s joint plan of reorganization, and to $14.6 million of gains recognized during the comparable six-month period in 2005 related to jet fuel forward contracts that did not qualify for hedge accounting and the favourable settlement of a bankruptcy related claim. See Note 5, “Debt and Common Stock Warrants”, to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a more detailed discussion of the aforementioned nonoperating losses incurred in the six-month period of 2006.

Income Taxes.  Income tax expense was $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to income tax expense of $18.6 million for the same six-month period in 2005.  The tax provision and unusual effective tax rate are primarily due to the non-deductibility of certain expenses we incurred in connection with the redemption of the 5.0% subordinated convertible notes and an increase in net deferred tax assets requiring a full valuation allowance for the six-month period of 2006.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity is essentially completely dependent on the operating results and cash flows of Hawaiian, along with the two credit facilities put in place in June 2005 in connection with Hawaiian’s joint plan of reorganization (the Joint Plan), as amended on March 13, 2006, and as are described in more detail below and in Note 5, “Debt and Common Stock Warrants”, to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Substantially all of our assets are encumbered under our existing credit facilities. Due to the significance of the operating cash flows of Hawaiian to our future liquidity, our consolidated sources and uses of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2006, and ours and Hawaiian’s combined sources and uses of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2005 are discussed below in order to provide a more informative comparison of cash flows for those two six-month periods.

Hawaiian has been able to maintain positive cash flow from operations principally by increasing scheduled passenger revenue through a combination of yield management and scheduling on its long-haul and interisland routes, and through increases in the sales of miles to companies affiliated with its frequent flyer program, HawaiianMiles.  However, the introduction of new and expanded service into our transpacific market by certain major domestic airlines, and the introduction of service into our interisland market by Mesa Airlines in early June 2006, together with any other potential downward pressures on our yields and load factors in those markets from other competitors, may negatively and materially impact Hawaiian’s future revenues in these markets.

Cash and cash equivalents were $172.5 million as of June 30, 2006, an increase of $19.2 million from cash and cash equivalents of $153.4 million as of December 31, 2005. We also had restricted cash on those dates of $87.0 million and $53.4 million, respectively. Of the total restricted cash as of June 30, 2006, $10.2 million consisted of cash held in escrow (inclusive of interest earned to that date) that was included in long-term payments and other under other assets in the accompanying consolidated June 30, 2006 balance sheet. As is discussed in more detail below, $10.0 million of such escrowed funds was used to prepay certain long-term debt in July 2006.  The balance of restricted cash at June 30, 2006 and the restricted cash at December 31, 2005 consisted almost entirely of cash held as collateral by entities that process our credit card transactions for advance ticket sales.  The cash held as collateral for credit card sales transactions earns interest for our benefit and is released to us as the related travel is provided to our passengers.  Historically, Hawaiian’s cash flow from operations is higher in the second and third quarters, while the first and fourth quarters traditionally reflect reduced travel demand except for specific periods around holidays and spring break.

Despite the $35.3 million increase in the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same six-

30




month period in 2005, net cash provided by operating activities before reorganization activities decreased by only $3.7 million for the 2006 period compared to the same period in 2005. This disparity was due principally to the fact that substantially all of the $31.1 million nonoperating losses we incurred in the six-month period of 2006 resulting from the redemption of our 5.0% subordinated convertible notes and modifications of Hawaiian’s two credit facilities did not use cash. Reorganization activities used $4.5 million in net cash during the six months ended June 30, 2005 mostly for payments of professional fees associated with Hawaiian’s bankruptcy case and eventual reorganization. Net cash used in investing activities was $55.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $14.9 million for the comparable period in 2005, the increase in cash used in the 2006 period being primarily due to the acquisition of and the overhauls of and modifications to the four Boeing 767-300 aircraft discussed below and the net cash held in escrow discussed above.  Financing activities provided net cash of approximately $26.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to net cash used in financing activities of approximately $0.3 million during the comparable period in 2005. The period-over-period difference in net cash provided by/used in financing activities was primarily due to the approximate $86.8 million of additional debt we raised in the six-month period of 2006 (net of associated issuance costs) less $52.3 million principal of the 5.0% subordinated convertible notes we redeemed in April 2006 and $6.9 million of other principal repayments we made during the six-month period in 2006.

In the first quarter of 2006, Hawaiian purchased four used Boeing 767-300 aircraft for a total purchase price of approximately $32 million. We estimate that our capital expenditures during the last two quarters of 2006 will be approximately $45 million. Anticipated capital expenditures include overhauls and modifications of the recently acquired aircraft for entry into revenue service, upgrades and enhancements to our information technology systems, improvements to certain of our ground facilities and acquisitions of ground support equipment (principally for the four aircraft acquired in 2006). Excepting certain contracts pertaining to the induction of the above four aircraft, the majority of the other anticipated capital expenditures are not firm commitments, and therefore we can adjust the level of our capital spending based on our then available and projected available cash.

In March 2006, we raised approximately $86.8 million, net of debt issuance costs, of additional capital by amending the two credit facilities (the Senior Credit Facility and Term B Credit Facility) that Hawaiian initially entered into in June 2005 to help fund the Joint Plan. We used such additional funds to partially fund the acquisition of the aforementioned four used Boeing 767-300 aircraft and to redeem the outstanding balance of the 5.0% subordinated convertible notes issued in June 2005 to help fund the Joint Plan.  As of June 30, 2006, approximately $10.0 million (excluding interest earned to that date) was held in escrow for the purpose of acquiring certain capital assets.  On July 11, 2006, and pursuant to the provisions of the amended Term B Credit Facility, the $10.0 million of escrowed funds was released to the Term B Credit Facility lenders, and our total obligation under that facility was reduced commensurately.  The release of the $10.0 million to the Term B Credit Facility lenders was accounted for as an early repayment of the $72.5 million term loan we made under that credit facility in March 2006 and resulted in a nonoperating charge of $1.0 million due to the accelerated amortization of portions of the debt discount and issuance costs associated with the $72.5 million term loan.

On April 21, 2006, we redeemed all of the then outstanding 5.0% subordinated convertible notes due June 1, 2010 for approximately $55.9 million inclusive of a $2.6 million prepayment premium and $1.0 million of accrued and unpaid interest to that date.  We incurred an approximate $28.0 million loss on such redemption due principally to the accelerated amortization of the remaining discount associated with the notes when they were initially issued in June 2005.

During the six months ended June 30, 2006, we made scheduled contributions of $3.4 million to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans, and we expect to make additional contributions of $7.6 million to those plans during the remainder of 2006.

 

On August 3, 2006, the U.S. Congress passed and sent to President George W. Bush for his signature pension reform legislation that would, among other things, require us to fully fund our defined benefit plans over a period of ten years, beginning in 2008.  Also under the legislation, airlines that freeze their defined benefit plans are allowed to fund their plans over a 17-year period and to use a higher discount rate of 8.85 percent to calculate their pension liabilities.  Based on comments made by certain members of the U.S. Senate, it is expected that a “technical corrections” bill will be passed later in 2006 that will provide equal treatment for all airlines.  However, no assurances can be made that such legislation will be passed by the U.S. Congress and signed into law by the President.  We are currently evaluating this new legislation, but have not yet determined what impact it would have on our future pension funding obligations if it is passed into law by the President.

As of June 30, 2006, we had borrowing capacity of approximately $15.7 million available under the Senior Credit Facility.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and/or conditions.

Critical accounting policies and estimates are defined as those accounting policies and accounting estimates that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties that potentially could result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. For a detailed discussion of the application of our critical accounting policies other than the one discussed immediately below, see “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” and Note 3, “Summary of Accounting Policies”, to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Aircraft maintenance and repair costs.  Maintenance and repair costs for owned and leased flight equipment, including the overhaul of aircraft components, are charged to operating expenses as incurred. Engine overhaul costs covered by power-by-the-hour arrangements are paid and expensed as incurred, on the basis of hours flown per contract. Under the terms of our power-by-the-hour agreements, we pay a set dollar amount per engine hour flown on a monthly basis and the third-party vendor assumes the obligation to repair the engines at no additional cost to us, subject to certain specified exclusions.

Additionally, although our aircraft lease agreements specifically provide that we, as lessee, are responsible for maintenance of the leased aircraft, we do, under our existing aircraft lease agreements, pay maintenance reserves to aircraft lessors that are to be applied towards the cost of future maintenance events. These reserves are calculated based on a performance measure, such as flight hours, and are specifically to be used to reimburse third-party providers that furnish services in connection with maintenance of our leased aircraft. If there are sufficient funds on deposit to pay the invoices submitted, they are paid. However, if amounts on deposit are insufficient to cover the invoices, we must cover the shortfall because, as noted above, we are legally responsible for maintaining the leased aircraft. Under certain of our existing aircraft lease agreements, if there are excess amounts on deposit at the expiration of the lease, the lessor is entitled to retain any excess amounts; whereas at the expiration of certain other of our existing aircraft lease agreements any such excess amounts are returned to us. The maintenance reserves paid under our lease agreements do not transfer either the obligation to maintain the aircraft or the cost risk associated with the maintenance activities to the aircraft lessor. In addition, we maintain the right to select any third-party maintenance provider. Therefore, we record these amounts as prepaid maintenance on our balance sheet and then recognize maintenance expense when the underlying maintenance is performed, in accordance with our maintenance accounting policy. Prepaid maintenance totaled $28.5 million as of June 30, 2006.  Any excess amounts retained by the lessor upon the expiration of the lease, which are not expected to be significant, would be recognized as additional aircraft rental expense at that time.

ITEM 3.                                                     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

We are subject to certain market risks, including commodity price risk (i.e., jet fuel prices), and interest rate risk. We have market sensitive instruments in the form of variable rate debt instruments and financial derivative instruments used to hedge Hawaiian’s exposure to jet fuel price increases. The adverse effects of potential changes in these market risks are discussed below.  The sensitivity analyses presented do not consider the effects that such adverse changes may have on overall economic activity nor do they consider additional actions we might undertake to mitigate our exposure to such changes.  Actual results may differ.

Aircraft Fuel Costs. Aircraft fuel costs constituted a significant portion of Hawaiian’s operating expense. Fuel costs represented 28.0% and 25.2%, respectively, of Hawaiian’s operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and the year ended December 31, 2005.  Based on gallons expected to be consumed in 2006, for every one-cent increase in the cost of jet fuel, Hawaiian’s annual fuel expense increases by approximately $1.2 million.

As of June 30, 2006, Hawaiian had entered into jet fuel forward contracts with a single counterparty to hedge the cost of approximately 24% of its fuel requirements for the remainder of 2006. Hawaiian does not have any definitive plans to hedge its fuel requirements beyond 2006. Under the terms of these jet fuel forward contracts, Hawaiian pays a fixed price per gallon for jet fuel ranging from $1.89 to $2.17 per gallon and receives or pays a floating price per gallon for jet fuel from the counterparty based on the market price for jet fuel. The fair value of the jet fuel forward contracts was $1.6 million as of June 30, 2006 and was recorded in prepaid expenses and other in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

From June 2, 2005, when the Company reconsolidated Hawaiian for financial reporting purposes, until August 31, 2005, the jet fuel forward contracts did not qualify as hedges under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (SFAS 133). On September 1, 2005, all jet fuel forward contracts held on that date were designated as hedges, with an effective price based on the September 1, 2005 spot price, irrespective of the settlement price of the specific contracts. The spot prices on September 1, 2005 were $2.25 for Los Angeles based jet fuel forward contracts and $1.99 for Singapore based jet fuel forward contracts. Additionally, during September 2005, Hawaiian entered into additional jet fuel forward contracts that did not qualify as hedges under SFAS 133 until October 13, 2005, at which point the Company designated the jet fuel forward contracts as hedges, with an effective price based on the October 13, 2005 spot price, irrespective of the settlement price of the specific contracts. The spot prices on October 13, 2006 were $2.09 for Los Angeles based jet fuel forward contracts and $1.86 for Singapore based jet fuel forward contracts.

Accordingly, the economic value of Hawaiian’s jet fuel forward contracts entered into during 2005 will not be recognized as an equivalent reduction in fuel expense during the designated periods. Rather, the expense savings resulting from such forward contracts (and/or expense increases in the event of a reduction of spot prices below the settlement price) will be reduced (or in the event of a loss, increased) by the corresponding portion of the amount of unrealized gain previously recorded in 2005 as a component of nonoperating income.

(1) Contract designation prices are based on spot prices on the date of designation of the applicable jet fuel forward contracts.

Our jet fuel operating expense in a particular period will reflect the spot price for jet fuel during that period, applicable fuel taxes, the cost of delivery to airports and the recognition of hedge gains or losses for the designated period. As a result of the designation of jet fuel forward contracts during 2005 at times when spot prices were generally higher than the settlement price of the contracts, our reported fuel expense during 2006 will not reflect the full economic benefit of the forward contracts or the cash savings achieved by Hawaiian.

The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.  The Company is exposed to credit risks in the event the above counterparty fails to meet its obligations; however, the Company does not expect this counterparty to fail to meet its obligations.

Interest Rates.  Our results of operations are subject to fluctuations in interest rates due to the resultant effects on our variable rate debt and certain of our interest bearing cash and restricted cash accounts. As of June 30, 2006, we had $60.0 million of variable rate debt indexed to the Wells Fargo Bank Prime Rate and a LIBOR rate that were 8.25% and 5.38%, respectively, and $98.9 million of fixed rate debt, including capital leases of $1.0 million. The weighted average effective yield for June 2006 was approximately 4.40% for certain of our interest bearing cash and restricted cash accounts, which totaled $246.9 million as of June 30, 2006.

We do not mitigate our exposure to variable-rate debt by entering into interest rate swaps. Changes in market interest rates do, therefore, have a direct and corresponding effect on our pretax earnings and cash flows associated with our floating rate debt and cash investments. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in the Wells Fargo Prime Rate and the LIBOR rate in effect at June 30, 2006 and the effective yield on our cash investments for June 2006 would increase our pretax earnings and cash flows associated with these variable rate instruments by approximately $1.9 million for the 12-month period ending June 30, 2007. For the purpose of determining this hypothetical increase, the only cash flow subsequent to June 30, 2006 that was considered was the scheduled amortization of our variable rate debt.

Market risk for fixed rate long-term debt and capitalized lease obligations is estimated as the potential increase in fair value resulting from a hypothetical 10 percent decrease in interest rates, and amounted to approximately $3.1 million as of June 30, 2006.

ITEM 4.                                                     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), performed an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, which have been designed to permit us to effectively identify and timely disclose important financial information. Based on that evaluation, our management,  including our CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of June 30, 2006 to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Remediation of Material Weakness in Internal Control

As reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, we determined that changes in the fair value of certain fuel derivatives designated as fuel hedges and used to manage the risk of changing jet fuel prices were not appropriately recognized into earnings during the fourth quarter of 2005 as required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We concluded that these errors resulted from the lack of an effective review of the account reconciliations related to our fuel hedging, which constituted a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.  We have designed and implemented new internal control procedures to remediate the controls over our accounting for fuel derivatives. During the first six months of 2006, we performed an extensive review of our account reconciliations related to our fuel derivative financial instruments in an effort to ensure the proper recognition under generally accepted accounting principles.  Effective March 2006, we implemented a review of open counterparty contracts, developed a fuel derivative checklist, and implemented additional reconciliation controls to ensure that the valuation and recognition is both complete and adequately reviewed. We believe we have taken the steps necessary to remediate this material weakness relating to our fuel derivative accounting processes, procedures and controls.

33




Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

Other than as noted above in this Item 4, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) identified in connection with the evaluation of our internal controls performed during the quarter ended June 30, 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.                                                     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Mesa Air Group

As previously disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2006, on February 13, 2006, we filed a complaint against Mesa Air Group, Inc. (Mesa) in the Bankruptcy Court, Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. v. Mesa Air Group, Inc., Adversary Proceeding No. 06-90026 (Bankr. D. Haw.), alleging that Mesa misused confidential and proprietary information that we provided to Mesa in 2004 pursuant to a process established by the Bankruptcy Court to facilitate our efforts to solicit potential investment in connection with our Chapter 11 plan of reorganization. On March 16, 2006, Mesa filed its answer to the complaint and a counterclaim alleging violations of the Sherman Anti-Trust Act, intentional interference with prospective economic advantage and unfair trade practices.  We filed a motion to dismiss the counterclaim in its entirety; at a hearing held on May 19, 2006, the Bankruptcy Court dismissed the two state law causes of action but not the antitrust action.  Accordingly, discovery on the antitrust claim has commenced.  Mesa also filed a motion to withdraw the reference, in which it sought to remove the proceeding from the Bankruptcy Court’s jurisdiction and to have the proceeding instead adjudicated by the federal district court. At a hearing held on May 15, 2006, the District Court ruled in our favor and denied the motion.   Mesa also filed a motion to dismiss Hawaiian’s turnover claim, under which Hawaiian had requested the return of any Hawaiian confidential documents in Mesa’s possession; the Bankruptcy Court denied Mesa’s motion at a hearing held on June 30, 2006.  On June 28, 2006, we filed a motion for a preliminary injunction, requesting that the Bankruptcy Court enjoin Mesa for a period of one year from selling or issuing tickets in the inter-island market.  Mesa’s objection to the motion for a preliminary injunction is due on August 11, 2006, and a hearing on the motion is scheduled for September 15, 2006.  On June 30, 2006, we filed a motion to extend the deadline to move to amend our complaint or add new parties, or in the alternative, for permission to add as a defendant the former aviation consultant for Hawaiian Holdings that was retained by Mesa in April 2005 to evaluate the Hawaii inter-island market.  Mesa subsequently agreed to the 45 day extension, which the Bankruptcy Court approved.  The deadline for completion of fact discovery is November 15, 2006.  To date, the parties have exchanged documents, have exchanged their initial disclosures pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(f), and depositions have begun. A trial date has been scheduled for April 2, 2007.

We are not a party to any other litigation that is expected to have a significant effect on our operations or business.

Item 1A.                                                  RISK FACTORS.

Item 1A. Risk Factors, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 includes a discussion of our risk factors. Other than the matter discussed below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A of our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. The information below updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the risk factors and information disclosed in our Form 10-K.

We may experience delays in introducing our recently acquired 767-300 aircraft into revenue service.

As is discussed in more detail above in Item 2 of Part I, Management’s Discussion and Analysis Of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, we expect to have all four of the 767-300 aircraft we acquired in the first quarter of 2006 available for revenue service by the end of 2006. However, due to possible delays in the timely completion of the overhauls and modifications of the aircraft and/or approval by the FAA to operate the aircraft on extended over water routes, there are no assurances that the aircraft will be available by their scheduled induction dates.

We have sold and are selling tickets for future travel on certain of our transpacific flights that are scheduled to be operated by these aircraft.  The possible unavailability of the aircraft and resultant cancellation of the flights they are scheduled to operate might require us to accommodate those displaced passengers on other airlines and at costs exceeding the fares we collect for such canceled flights. Additionally, until the aircraft are in revenue service, there will be no direct incremental revenue to fund the fixed costs associated with our ownership and operation of these aircraft, including the wages and benefits for the additional flight crews and ground personnel we hired to accommodate the growth in our 767 aircraft fleet and the debt-service costs related to the increased debt we incurred in the first quarter of 2006 to help fund our acquisition of these aircraft.

ITEM 2.                                                     UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

None.

ITEM 3.                                                     DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES.

None.
