Actually, the mainland flights are profitable for Aloha. The interisland operation is obviously not. Having diversified and started up the mainland ops has helped keep the company from bleeding even more money. In fact, the mainland operation, the cargo operation, and the contract service stuff is all profitable. The interisland passenger flights are what is killing Aloha.
