About Aloha Air Cargo Aloha Air Cargo had its beginnings as a unit of Aloha Airlines, a passenger airline that served Hawaii and US mainland destinations from 1946 to 2008 for 61 years. Originally, Aloha's cargo business consisted of carrying freight in the cargo holds below the floors of regular passenger flights. Aloha's dual purpose Boeing 737-200 QC aircraft, better known as 'quick change' aircraft, had the unique ability to convert from a passenger configuration to an exclusively cargo configuration in less than an hour. In the evening, pallets of seats were removed to accommodate the overnight cargo. On March 31, 2008, Aloha Airlines halted scheduled passenger service due to the combined effects of high fuel prices and relentless competition. Aloha Airlines and its creditors, with the help of U.S. Senator Daniel Inouye, sold the airline's profitable cargo division to Seattle-based Saltchuk Resources, Inc. Saltchuk Resources has been doing business in Hawaii since 2000 when it acquired Young Brothers / Hawaiian Tug & Barge. Committed to the welfare of Hawaii and strengthening the local economy, the company also acquired Hawaii Fuel Network, Maui Petroleum and Minit Stop Stores in 2006. Today, Aloha Air Cargo's aircraft fleet consists of four (4) Boeing 737-200 freighters in an all cargo configuration. Each has a cargo carrying capacity of approximately 25,000 lbs. Daily operations include 16 - 18 nightly departures out of Honolulu and two daily charters, including service to every major airport destination within the State of Hawaii including Kahului, Lihue, Hilo and Kona. Through partnerships with other Hawaii airlines and international carriers, Aloha Air Cargo can arrange shipments from any Hawaii city to any destination worldwide. Aloha Air Cargo carries diverse products such as; fresh bakery products, fish and seafood, produce, tropical fish, live animals, time sensitive shipments, cut floral and tropical fruit export products, general cargo and much more. DHL, Federal Express, Love?s Bakery, UPS, and the US Postal Service are some of the notable shippers. Aloha Air Cargo is the only overnight carrier to offer refrigeration capabilities at all Hawaiian island locationsAloha Aircargo Address
