Hey fellow travelers! It’s Olivia here, and having been in and out of airports countless times, I’ve got the deets on the VIP lounges at Honolulu Airport (HNL). If you’re looking to chill out before your flight, I’ve got you covered. Let’s dive in!
Terminal 1:
Hawaiian Airlines Premier Club: Located on the second floor by Gate A18. Open from 5:00 am to 7:00 pm. Offers snacks, TV, newspapers, magazines, and Wi-Fi. For entry, you’ve got to be flying Hawaiian Airlines executive class or be a Pualani Platinum, Gold, or Premier Club member.
The Plumeria Lounge: Open from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm and it’s on the third floor. They’ve got AC, newspapers, magazines, Wi-Fi, TV, snacks, and drinks. Entry through Priority Pass membership, Hawaiian Airlines executive class tickets, Pualani Platinum or Gold memberships, online reservations, or by paying at the door (USD40.00).
Terminal 2:
Gosh, there’s so much to cover here!
ANA Lounge: Right above Gate C4 but currently closed. They have food, drinks, Wi-Fi, newspapers, magazines, and even a breastfeeding room. Entry is for those with certain memberships like Diamond Service, and passengers of specific airlines and classes.
Delta Sky Club: Right in front of Gate F1. Operating between 5:30 am and 9:30 pm. They have Wi-Fi, electronic charging stations, reading materials, food, and a bar. Entry varies from memberships to certain credit card users.
