I wonder if the answer is in, ironically, another release this month. If they don't survive and if the mainland service is profitable, I wonder if we could see Alaska Airlines move into some of the satellite airport to Hawaii markets at some point in the future. Kona and Maui are suspiciously missing from the Alaska Airlines route map.
