Getting from the airport

HNL sits about 11 km (7 mi) from Waikiki.

Rideshare/taxi — Uber, Lyft and taxis pick up curbside; Waikiki runs 20-40 minutes depending on the H-1 freeway.

Roberts/airport shuttles — Shared shuttles to Waikiki hotels run frequently and beat taxis on price for solo travelers.

TheBus — Honolulu's public buses (routes 20/40) reach Waikiki cheaply but allow only luggage that fits on your lap.

Rental car — Consolidated rental facility via shuttle. Book early — Oahu inventory sells out in peak weeks.

At the airport

Terminals. HNL has three linked terminals: Terminal 1 (Hawaiian Airlines), Terminal 2 (most mainland and international carriers), Terminal 3 (Mokulele commuters). The Wiki Wiki shuttle and walkways connect them airside.

On arrival. Arriving from the mainland is domestic — no customs. International arrivals clear immigration at Terminal 2. Agriculture rules are strict LEAVING Hawaii: checked bags are x-rayed for produce at departure.

After you land

Diamond Head over Waikīkī, the North Shore surf, and Pearl Harbor. Hanauma Bay needs an online reservation; Pearl Harbor's Arizona Memorial tickets drop online eight weeks out. The North Shore swell is a winter thing.
