"He pupule wale nā kumukūʻai," wahi a deBorhegyi. Ua nānā ʻo ia i kekahi mau pūnaewele huakaʻi, e ʻimi ana i ka mokulele maikaʻi loa.

"I kekahi manawa, he $1,000 ka tikiki. A i ka lā aʻe, e hāʻule i lalo i $650. Aia ma nā wahi a pau, "wahi āna. I loko o kekahi mau lā, ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo ia i nā tiketi no $850 i kēlā me kēia ma ka pūnaewele pūnaewele ʻo American Airlines.

Ua hoʻomau mau ʻia nā puke e like me ka ʻoki ʻana o nā mokulele i ka hiki ke neʻe kokoke i ka loaʻa kālā, ʻo ia hoʻi ke hoʻopiha wikiwiki nei nā mokulele. ʻO Eagan-based Northwest Airlines, no ka laʻana, e ʻoki i ka nui o ka 9.5 pakeneka o ka mana o ka ʻōnaehana i kēia hapaha, ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia me ka makahiki i hala. ʻO nā mea lawe ʻē aʻe o ka lāhui, me nā mea hoʻokūkū haʻahaʻa, ua hana like.

ʻO kahi hopena o ka mākeke paʻa loa ʻo ia ka hoʻomaka ʻana o nā ʻāpana pāʻani e nānā maikaʻi aku i nā mea kūʻai aku, wahi a nā mea huakaʻi.

"Makemake ka poʻe i ka mana, e ʻeli i kā lākou hōkele ponoʻī," wahi a Saglie, ka mea hoʻoponopono huakaʻi pūnaewele. Akā ʻo ka ʻaelike pūʻolo paha ke kūʻai maikaʻi loa i kēia kau. Ke pane nei nā hōkele a me nā hōkele i ka ʻoihana huakaʻi o kēia manawa.

ʻO ka nānā nui ʻana i nā mokulele "e pili ana i ka poʻe huakaʻi ʻoihana e like me ka mea i hana ʻia i kēlā me kēia kanaka," wahi a Button. A i ka hopena, e alakaʻi ia i kahi ʻoihana mokulele olakino, manaʻoʻiʻo ʻo ia. No nā makahiki he nui, ua hana nā mokulele i ka poho, "a ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke ola e like me ia."
