A Hawaiian Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Maui was canceled after being forced to return to Los Angeles International Airport three times on Friday, according to reports.

Flight 33, bound for Hawaii's Kahului Airport, was experiencing unspecified mechanical problems, the reports said. The third return prompted airline officials to cancel the flight, according to the reports. The type of aircraft was not clear.

Some passengers complained on Twitter, with one saying, "I always use @HawaiianAir for inter-island flights, but chose to do domestic with them this time and I realize it was a mistake."
