Department of Transportation Reminds Travelers of Limited Airport Parking During the Holiday Season

The Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) Airports Division is reminding travelers that parking at the five main airports across the state is limited during the holiday season due to an anticipated increase in airline passengers.

All five of Hawaiʻi’s major airports, Honolulu (HNL), Kahului (OGG), Kona (KOA), Hilo (ITO), and Lihue (LIH) are expected to be busy.

Last month during the Thanksgiving holiday two of the three parking structures at HNL were near capacity between Thursday and Saturday. There is some relief in sight at HNL as 724 spots will be returned as public parking early next year.

HDOT is asking travelers  to consider getting dropped off by family, friends or taking a taxi, or ride share service.

If utilizing the airport’s public parking garages, travelers are advised to arrive early and allow for additional walking time to the ticket lobbies, as some lots are farther from the main terminal than others. The maximum parking rate for a 24-hour period at HNL is $18. The maximum parking rate for a 24-hour parking at neighbor island airports is $15.
