Huh? Flying between the islands is no more tightly controlled than flying between L.A. and Sacramento. It's flying between the mainland and the islands, then back again, that is tightly controlled. Anyway...

...the argument is simple. Kauai absolutely loathes the influx of tourists that have invaded Maui. Maui, in fact, doesn't like the influx of tourists it endures, but that's Maui's problem. The super ferry, which has been a source of contention for Kauai for at least two years now, is seen as a daily multiple delivery of three-hundred-plus tourists and cars to a very small island that not only cannot support such an influx, but does not want that influx.
