Hawaiian Airlines to begin service to South Korea in 2011

Hawaiian Airlines will begin nonstop service to Seoul, South Korea starting January 2011, the carrier announced today.

The airline will fly to the destination four times a week — Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays.

The new route will be the airline’s sixth international destination.

Hawaiian, the state’s largest interisland air carrier, currently serves Sydney, Australia; Manila; Pago Pago, American Samoa; Papeete, Tahiti; and has tentative approval to begin service to Tokyo’s Haneda International Airport in October.
