In a notice to travel agents this week, Hawaiian Airlines said it was pushing back the implementation date of its GDS surcharge from April 1 to May 31.<\/p>\n
The airline said it was giving business partners “more time to make the technical adjustments required to accurately process the modifications and complete testing.”<\/p>\n
Hawaiian’s GDS surcharge will be $7 per segment. A roundtrip Los Angeles-Honolulu-Maui itinerary has four segments for a total surcharge of $28.<\/p>\n
When Hawaiian announced the GDS surcharge last November, the airline said travel agencies will have three options for avoiding it. They can use HA Connect, which is the carrier’s NDC-enabled direct-connect solution; book via the new Hawaiian Airlines Partner Portal; or book via approved NDC-enabled aggregators.<\/p>\n
