A Hawaiian A330 clears the Salesforce Tower as it departs SFO. Of their current fleet of 61 aircraft, 24 are of this model. Their A330 aircraft were the first to wear the updated livery unveiled in 2017, which includes the addition of the lei on the fuselage. Upon delivery, each Hawaiian Airlines A330 is named for a celestial body of particular importance to ancient Polynesian navigators (in this example Mele Mele, the Polynesian name for the constellation Corvus) used to navigate to the Hawaiian islands.
