Strategic Airlines has applied for traffic rights to the USA, prompting speculation the largely leisure orientated carrier is planning flights to Hawaii.

Strategic currently operates one Airbus A330-200 with plans to acquire more. Flights to Honolulu fit the A330-200’s payload range capabilities, and Strategic already flies to the leisure destinations of Phuket and Denpasar/Bali.
The airline is also planning to change its name, with The Sydney Morning Herald recently suggesting that ‘Air Australia’ was the likely new name.
