THE FOLLOWING IS A QUESTION & ANSWERS RELEASE DISTRIBUTED TO HAWAIIAN EMPLOYEES
AND INCLUDED IN A NEWSLETTER TO ALOHA EMPLOYEES ON FEBRUARY 21, 2002.





                            ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS
                            -------------------------
                                By Greg Brenneman

I appreciate all the times we have been able to meet and your phone calls to the
Employee Hotline. I've received some terrific and well thought out suggestions
about how the merger can work best for the employees, and I am taking a good
look at each of them to see how they can help as we bring the two carriers
together.

Some of you have left your names and telephone numbers, and I've enjoyed my
follow-up phone calls with you to answer your questions. Some of you have left
some great questions that I believe everyone would like to know the answers to.
I've pulled those questions together and addressed them for you in this letter.
I'll periodically send updates as new questions arise.

I leave a new voicemail message every Monday, so please continue to check it to
learn the status of the merger, my schedule, and other information. We have two
phone numbers for your convenience. On Oahu please call 537-2023, and from other
islands or the U.S. mainland, you can call our toll free number, 1-888-900-8003.

Q.   Immediate or close family members work for Aloha and Hawaiian. After the
     merger, are we able to still work together for the same company?

     Hawaii is a close-knit community, and I think it's terrific that family
     members work together. We will work to avoid direct reporting relationships
     while honoring our collective bargaining agreements and maintain compliance
     with the Hawaii law.

Q.   Do you plan to keep contract services?

     Absolutely. Hawaii is our home, and we should continue to serve the
     carriers who want to utilize our services.

Q.   Will there be positions available in other destinations or would you use
     contract services?

     One of the merger's benefits is that growth of the airline means growth
     opportunities for employees. As a general rule and depending on the
     frequency of the flights, about four flights per day are needed in any
     destination to productively bring the work in house. We have not finalized
     the route plan or fleet plan yet, but we are looking at increasing our
     service from cities we currently serve on the West Coast, so there may be
     opportunities to bring work in house over time.

Q.   Explain the furlough protection.

     It is very important to me to keep as many employees working as possible.
     In early January we offered furlough protection to about 70 percent of the
     combined work force - all the flight attendants, gate, ramp, reservations
     agents and contract services employees. In order to receive this protection
     the two groups need to merge their seniority lists and accept the recently
     adopted Hawaiian contracts quickly. If we do this, we will generate the
     cost savings required to keep everyone working. The unions are reviewing
     our offer, and together we will let you know as decisions are reached.

Q.   Why did you pick the Hawaiian Airlines contract?

     The Hawaiian contracts were recently negotiated and have the longest
     duration, so it made sense to use them.

Q.   Our pension benefits are different. Will we lose the benefits we have
     accrued over the years?

     There are very specific laws that govern retirement plans. The Internal
     Revenue Code prohibits an amendment or change to the plan that reduces the
     benefits you have accrued to the date of the amendment or change. For
     contract employees, discussions about the form of pension benefits
     following the merger will be part of the current talks with bargaining
     representatives. For non-contract/non-represented employees, the form of
     pension benefits will be among the many issues that will be reviewed and
     addressed as part of the integration process.

Q.   What happens to the retirees? Will they still be able to continue with
     space-available travel?

     Former employees of both airlines worked hard during their careers, and I
     am committed to having a fair travel policy for all employees, including
     retirees. One of the key parts of our go Forward Plan is called "Working
     Together," and working together means taking care of each other. It is our
     intent to provide retirees with continued space-available travel.

Q.   How will our seniority be merged? Will I get credit for my longevity?

     As you know, the unions at each airline are largely the same, and the MECs
     of each union are working to merge their seniority lists based on their
     merger policies. Your union representatives will notify you when the
     combined seniority listing is ready for your review.

     You will not lose your current longevity in the new airline.

Q.   Why are people using the term "merger of equals" when Hawaiian is twice as
     big as Aloha and has new planes?

     The term "merger of equals" is a totally irrelevant term.

     From an employee perspective, each of the unions has seniority integration
     policies that apply in this merger.

     From an investor perspective, both the Hawaiian and Aloha Boards have
     approved the merger. The independent (public) shareholders of Hawaiian will
     also get to vote on the merger. Given that the Hawaiian stock price has
     dramatically increased since the merger was announced, it is likely that
     they will approve it.

Q.   When will the proxy filing with both carriers' financial results be
     available?

     The proxy was filed on February 14 and is available at
     http://sec.freeedgar.com. It is 570 pages long.

     It points out that each airline lost between $100,000 and $170,000 per day
     in Q4 2001 and that the breakeven load factor for the interisland market is
     over 80 percent. Clearly, the interisland market is broken, as neither
     carrier has achieved consistent 80-percent load factor in interisland
     flights.

Q.   What happens to the coupons that were purchased?

     Coupons sold before the merger will be honored after the merger closes.

Q.   When will you decide on a fleet plan?

     We are working with Boeing on that right now, and I'll let you know as soon
     as we reach some decisions. Boeing has said it will offer us very
     attractive lease rates on 717s as it has lots of excess airplanes. For
     interisland cargo, we are looking at several options but most likely will
     keep 737-200 freighters. For TransPac routes, it looks like we'll grow with
     a mix of 767s and 757s.

Q.   Will you move maintenance and reservations to the mainland?

     I am committed to Hawaii's flagship carrier benefiting the economy and the
     people of Hawaii. There are no plans to move these operations out of the
     state.

Q.   Why are we merging the two airline companies?

     Every airline in the industry has been hard hit as a result of the economic
     slowdown and the tragic events of September 11. Aloha and Hawaiian started
     with limited cash balances and have both experienced significant financial
     losses over the last several months. Even with some layoffs and the
     reduction in capacity, both airlines are running interisland load factors
     well below the breakeven point of 80 percent. Unless something is done,
     further downsizing is inevitable and both companies risk running out of
     cash.

     Combining the airlines creates the opportunity to establish a financially
     strong Hawaii-based carrier to serve Hawaii similar to the way Alaska
     Airlines serves Alaska. Once we get to a profitable core, it is our plan to
     every year enter new markets on the mainland and in the Pacific and grow to
     a sizable and profitable airline.

     The key thing to remember is that this merger is the best way to ensure the
     continued viability of Hawaii's interisland air service in a changing
     marketplace. The merger creates a flagship carrier for Hawaii that allows
     the continuation of frequent, affordable, quality interisland service to
     all existing routes. It also provides the financial muscle and staying
     power needed to allow us to bring more visitors to Hawaii by growing in new
     markets, both on the mainland and in the Pacific region.

Q.   What will be the size of this new company when the two airlines are merged?

     The combined company will rank 10th in size in the nation, with about $930
     million in revenues. With the financial strength and stability we gain from
     the merger, we project 7-10 percent growth in available seat miles
     annually.

Q.   How soon will you be involved in running the company?

     Until the close of the merger transaction each airline will continue to
     operate independently, and I will not be involved in day-to-day management.

     I am, however, hard at work laying the groundwork for translating the
     potential for the merged company into reality, beginning the moment the
     merger comes into effect.

Q.   Do you plan to add new routes?

     The business plan calls for the addition of new routes/lines beginning in
     2003. Whatever specific new routes are chosen, they will generally be aimed
     at making it easier for visitors in underserved markets to visit Hawaii
     more conveniently - and for Hawaii residents to travel to these areas with
     equal convenience.

Q:   Does the new company plan on keeping the same alliance partners?

     We intend to be a partner with any airline that wishes to connect its
     passengers between the islands. We plan to allow both companies' alliance
     partners to keep their current agreements until they expire, and I've
     spoken with all the CEOs of our alliance partners to assure them of this.
     In the meantime, we will work with our partners to develop future
     agreements. And we plan to offer the same reasonable alliance terms to any
     other carrier who wants to work with us to get their customers to neighbor
     island destinations.

     For our frequent flyer members, we are working on enhancements to our
     existing frequent flyer program, and we plan to create a frequent flier
     advisory board, which will include frequent flyers to represent the
     interests of Hawaii residents.

     In both these areas - alliances and frequent flyer programs - the essential
     thing to keep in mind is that we are "flying to win." That means trying to
     provide as much value to customers as we can, so they will purchase our
     services.

                                      #####
