The Hawaii-based airline is adding more weekly flights between Honolulu (HNL) and Boston (BOS), Las Vegas (LAS) and Pago Pago in American Samoa (PPG) this summer. The airline will also be adding two more flights, including a redeye, from Los Angeles (LAX) to Honolulu on Tuesdays and Fridays.

The additional LAX flights will help make "other U.S. mainland connections seamless and convenient," Overbeek added. During the peak summer season, there will be 23 weekly flights between Honolulu and Los Angeles.
