Airlines assist travelers in changing their Maui plans

Read Time:42 Second

Major airlines are helping passengers rebook trips due to the Hawaii wildfires.

Hawaiian Airlines, American Airlines, Southwest Airlines, and United Airlines are waiving change fees for trips to and from Kahului Airport on the island of Maui.

Hawaii is “discouraging non-essential travel to Kahului, and we are supporting our guests with flexible options to change their flights,” Hawaiian Airlines said in a statement to CNN. “The safety of our guests and employees, including teammates who live and work on Maui, is our priority, and we will continue to support the state with its ongoing response.”

More than 120 commercial flights are scheduled to depart from the two-runway airport Wednesday, with only six Maui flights canceled in the last 24 hours, FlightAware data shows. Kahului Airport is served by 10 airlines in total, including Delta Air Lines and Alaska Airlines.
