Hawaiian Airlines joins oneworld with new Airbus A330 livery and expanded global reach

Hawaiian Airlines formally entered oneworld on 22 April 2026, marking its first alliance membership in 96 years. CEO Diana Birkett Rakow unveiled a special Airbus A330 livery on 30 June 2026 in Honolulu, featuring the ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi phrase “Aloha a puni ka honua” beneath a purple oneworld banner. The design honors Hawaiian culture while signaling the carrier’s shift to a global operator with access to nearly 1,000 destinations across 170+ countries. Following its merger with Alaska Airlines, Hawaiian now shares the Atmos Rewards program and oneworld Priority benefits, including lounge access and fast-track security. The physical aircraft remains delayed due to painting issues, but the livery design was showcased digitally as a strategic Pacific connectivity enhancement.
