Alaska Airlines plans to add daily Boeing 737-800 service on selected Honolulu-Kahului routes beginning October 3, 2026. The expansion increases 737 capacity in the Hawaii market and supports demand for additional narrowbody service. The move is linked to fleet and network modernization across Alaska Airlines and Hawaiian Airlines, including Hawaiian’s planned transition toward 737 aircraft with premium interiors by 2028. The development provides a customer-level indication of continued demand for Boeing narrowbody aircraft in U.S. leisure markets.
