Castle & Cooke Aviation has promoted Amy Kaleikini to general manager of its Daniel K Inouye International airport FBO (PHNL) in Honolulu, Hawaii.

Kaleikini brings more than 20 years of both commercial and business aviation experience to the role, along with a personal passion for service. Over her career, Kaleikini has demonstrated a proven record of building high-performing, guest-focused teams, making her an ideal choice to lead an FBO focused on ‘Nonstop excellence. Nonstop elegance’.
