Under federal law, aviation accidents cannot be buried: 49 CFR Part 830 makes reporting mandatory, and the results become public record. That makes this ledger complete in one direction. An operator that never appears in it has no federal accident history to report. 37 of Hawaii's 101 air tour and scenic flight operators do appear, and the record includes 43 fatal accidents. Star ratings almost never say which is which.
Before you book with any Hawaii operator, run the check: search the company name on zReports, see which side of the ledger it sits on, and get the full record. Every operator has an answer.
