Competition is good. United will survive with international destinations. Alaska or Hawaiian may be at risk but they have been profiting on this for too long. AK used to have flexibility to book up to 60 days without cancellation fee and did not have basic economy, but now they have followed the herd - potentially to their demise.
I'm really curious to see what the total cost to the airline is for a flight from the mainland to Hawaii. There are all kinds of variables like fuel cost, number of passengers, weather, etc., but it would be interesting to hear what the approx cost is and how much they mark up the fare.
