NFL: Seattle Seahawks to fly on Hawaiian Airlines

Associated Press

The Seattle Seahawks will traveling Hawaiian style for the second straight year.

Hawaiian Airlines Inc. is the official charter for the Seahawks for its eight road games, including four cross-country trips to the East Coast.

The Seahawks will travel 34,766 miles this season, more than any other NFL team.

The carrier says it will use a wide-body Boeing 767 to carry the sizable Seahawks and provide "hearty, extra-large meals with lots of fresh fruit during the flight and fulfill any special requests."

Hawaiian says with its standard two-class configuration on the 264-seat aircraft, there is enough space for each player to have his own row.
