Unhappy "Aloha" ... Now Only Means "Goodbye"

I really miss AQ ... always loved to see their 732, 73G, and DH8 flying over the Hawaiian skies.

I remember some lyric of their commecial:
Aloha means hello ...
Aloha means goodbye ...
And Aloha means I love you ...


After more than 60 years served interisland routes, now they have ceased operations.

The title of your post almost makes me cry. Seriously. Aloha and Mahalo are defining words for the Hawaiian culture and to see such beautiful planes disappear from flying over paradise is a sad thing indeed. And to be replaced by a trite livery such as 'Go' seems so very wrong.

Yes, it's very sad to see Aloha gone but the Aloha spirit still alive and well
hope one day a billionare will come to the rescue and have the bird of paradise fly again, that would be great.
