On February 5, Southwest Airlines made its first Hawaii validation flight in an effort to obtain the "ETOPS" certification it needs from the Federal Aviation Administration. Once Southwest Airlines receives its ETOPS certification, it’ll announce their timing for selling and operating flights. Could it be as early as March, as reported by the Beat of Hawaii? It’s an aggressive timeline given the delay imposed by the government shutdown, but this week’s validation flight brings the airline that much closer to its highly-anticipated service to Hawaii.
