It's possible, a resort is looking at possibly setting up a property on Molokai and wants to link it to their property on Maui. They are exploring the option of scheduled daily service between their two properties with connections off of the inbound/outbound flights in Maui.

We're looking at options for equipment and have narrowed it down to the EMB-120 and Saab 340. The DHC-8 is a great aircraft for the mission but the market is far too slim and prices on the aircraft have been driven to insane levels. The ATR-42 is also acceptable but the investors are hesitant since most/all US carriers stop operating that aircraft (and they believe there must be a good reason for that).
