There's only two airlines I know of that fly the 717. They're AirTran and Hawian. I think we may codeshare with Hawian, but I'm not sure.

Northwest and TPG Capital helped to acquire Midwest. In 2005 Midwest owners and shareholders sought to sell the company. AirTran made first attempt at this but it was decided that Midwest would become a privately funded company by TPG and NWA. In June of 2009, Republic Airways Holdings, Inc. acquired Midwest for $31 million beating a proposal of buy-out from Southwest. I believe because of this buy-out by Republic, the codeshare with NWA was lost

"Midwest isnt a codeshare"

Don't think that is accurate. Flew ATL-FLL last Sunday and the flight had a Midwest code on it...

Midwest codeshares on Delta but Delta does NOT codeshare on Midwest, one-way agreement

I just realized that Northwest codeshares with Hawaiian on inter-island flights, could we see a future with the 717 and the fun island-hops.

Daniel, that entirely would depend on if Delta wants to keep that codeshare since they've taken over NWA.

Well, Delta is continuing their Frequent Flier agreement with Hawaiian so that is a good sign
