It sounds like some brilliant move carried out by a hood-wearing professional wrestler, but in actuality, a Hub-Buster is a smack-down of a different kind. A Hub-Buster is a deal that one airline puts out to specifically mess with a rival airline at that rival’s hub airport.

An airfare war of sorts has been waging over the “smaller” Hawaiian Islands for the last year. First, the territory of inter-island carriers like Go!, Aloha Airlines and Hawaiian Air have been mixing things up by offering reduced rates to locations throughout the archipelago.
