Transportation

Transportation

Rental Cars:

Most visitors get around by renting a car. Hawaii has all the major car rental companies, including Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Hertz, National, Thrifty and others. Service desks are located at the airports and at major hotels. Taxicabs are also available on the major islands.

InterIsland Travel:

Island hopping is done via interisland airlines, primarily Hawaiian Airlines. Hawaiian Air is known for their great customer service, earning the #1 ranking in overall quality from the Airline Quality Rating study in 3 of the past 4 years. G0! Mokulele is another option that is generally a little less expensive, but you’re flying in a small aircraft and it can be a bumpy ride.

Resort Shuttles:

Many resorts provide shuttle transportation within the area. Check your hotel concierge for more information.
Food & Drink
