There are so many other airlines flying to the mainland that I cannot understand all the angst.  If you don't like them - don't fly them . . .  As for them starting inter-island flights you should look at comparable routes on the mainland.  They are not cheaper and with the cost of everything here so high I'd bet their inter island fares will be even higher.  We lost a great alternative to flying when the Super Ferry was killed off and we just have to live with the consequences.
