HAL has code sharing agreements with Alaska Airlines, America West Airlines, American Airlines, Continental Airlines, Northwest Airlines, and Virgin Atlantic Airways.
Hawaiian Airlines filed for bankruptcy in March 2003, and is overdue for $4.5 million USD worth of payments to the pilots' pension plan. Within the company, it has been suggested that the plan be terminated. As of May 2005, Hawaiian Airlines had received court approval of its reorganization plan. The company emerged from bankruptcy protection on June 2, 2005 with reduced operating costs through renegotiated contracts with its union work groups.
