Today’s Aloha Airlines flight 843 from SNA to OGG “arrived” a little over an hour after departure. That’s one fast 737-700! Is this the infamous Hawaii glitch in action or is something else going on?
Read the postings on short flights. Hint: There’s a search link at the top of every forum page. Another hint: Big discussion on this regarding Delta.
Yet another hint: Dami is a real ball buster!
Thanks, pika. I’ve always depended on the kindness of strangers to offer me kind words.
Thanks for the warm welcome. Thought I’d done the proper due-diligence (hence my reference to the “Hawaii Glitch”) but apparently not. Per your recomendation I did search “short flights” and/or “Delta” to no avail. Please humor me and toss me a link or just let me know why a five hour scheduled flight would show up as arrived after one hour.
Yeah, dami…

Delta-Hawaiian Routes - how determined: Mduell (FlightAware staff) says “It may have accidently been marked as arrived while enroute.”

Just goes to show that there’s nothing new in the world – or in the Forums – anymore.
“Search harder” is the new answer to everything.
