For the first time, Hawaiian Airlines will offer twice-daily nonstop service between Los Angeles and Maui in response to a growing demand for peak summer travel.

Hawaiian is adding 34,000 air seats to Maui’s travel market over 10 weeks of service.

“We’re pleased to be supporting Maui’s visitor industry with this expanded peak season service and offering island residents another schedule option,” said Peter Ingram, Hawaii’s executive vice president and chief commercial officer, in a written statement this morning.

Ingram added that Hawaiian’s Maui hub, established earlier this year, offers an alternative connecting point for travel to Hawaii’s other islands with its expanded neighbor island flight schedule.

Tickets went on sale today for Hawaiian’s Los-Angeles-Maui service. The first daily flight will be offered June 13 through Aug. 25, 2013, with Flight HA 33 departing Los Angeles International Airport daily at 10 a.m. and arriving at Maui’s Kahului Airport at 12:25 p.m. The return Flight HA 34 departs Maui daily at 1:55 p.m. and arrives in Los Angeles at 10:05 p.m.

Hawaiian’s second daily flight will be offered from June 20 through Aug. 14, 2013, with Flight HA 55 departing Los Angeles at 1:30 p.m. and arriving on Maui at 3:55 p.m. The return Flight HA 56 will depart Maui at 10 p.m. and arrive in Los Angeles the following morning at 6:10 a.m.
