Advertiser Staff
American Airlines' decision to eliminate pillows on most of its domestic routes will not apply to flights to and from Hawai'i, the airline said.
The Fort Worth, Texas-based carrier said pillows will be removed from most flights beginning Tuesday in a cost-cutting move expected to save $370,000 a year.
Hawai'i will be exempt from the move, as well as U.S. coast-to-coast flights and international flights to Europe, Asia and South America, according to the airline.
The new owner of the Princeville resort has named retired hotel executive Jay Furfaro as general manager of the resort, which includes two golf courses, the Princeville Management Co. and Princeville Shopping Center.
Jeff Stone, president of Resort Group, which bought the resort, also announced that Mamo Cummings, former head of the Kaua'i Chamber of Commerce, will be director of marketing, and Eric Knutzen, former deputy finance director for Kaua'i County, will serve as the resort's finance director.
