Airlines flying from Honolulu to Kauai
Who flies from Honolulu to Kauai? Hawaiian Airlines and Southwest. Between them the route runs 10+ a day. We compare their fares, timings and baggage for your travel date and send the two or three that make sense, not a list of fifty.
- Hawaiian Airlines - Honolulu to Kauai
- Southwest - Honolulu to Kauai
Departure: Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL)
Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL) is where the Honolulu to Kauai flight begins. Terminals, gates and closing times are in the confirmation we send, with a note on the airport's security and passport checks. Arrive with a proper margin; low-cost carriers in particular close bag drop strictly on time.
- Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
- Haqqi Tours offers a private transfer from your hotel in Honolulu to Daniel K. Inouye International Airport
- Ask us about the terminal and fast-track options at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport
- Arrive about 2 hours before an international departure, 90 minutes before a domestic one
Arrival: Lihue Airport (Kauai) (LIH) and getting into Kauai
You arrive at Lihue Airport (Kauai) (LIH). Kauai has only a basic island bus and no rail, so an airport shuttle or a rental car are the usual options; a private car meets you at Lihue Airport, goes straight to Poipu, the Coconut Coast or the north shore and avoids the cost and effort of collecting a rental after a long flight. If you would rather not think about it, we book a private transfer from the airport to your hotel in Kauai, with the driver tracking the flight in case it is late.
Arriving late at night? We note it and, if you have booked a transfer, the driver tracks the flight; a delay costs you nothing.
Baggage, seats and classes on the Honolulu to Kauai flight
On board, the Honolulu to Kauai flight is about 35 minutes: economy is perfectly comfortable, and business class adds a bigger seat, a meal and lounge access for those who want it. Baggage rules differ by airline and fare; children and infants have their own allowances. Let us know who is flying and what you are carrying and we choose accordingly.
- Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy
- Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
- Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
- Seat selection free or paid depending on the carrier; families seated together on request
Flying with children, families and groups from Honolulu to Kauai
Travelling with children? Put the ages on the form: infants and children have different fares and different baggage allowances, and we apply both. Groups - a company, a school, a wedding party - are booked together so everyone sits in the same section and one confirmation covers the whole party. Haqqi Tours also provides the minivans and Sprinters that carry a group between the airport and the hotel at both ends.
Things to do in Kauai when you land
Kauai is Hawaii's 'Garden Isle', with the Na Pali cliffs, Waimea Canyon and quiet north-shore beaches. The reasons travellers fly from Honolulu to Kauai include Kilauea Point lighthouse, Wailua Falls, Limahuli and the botanical gardens, Na Pali Coast by boat or from the air and Waimea Canyon and Koke'e lookouts. For the first meal, try loco moco, shave ice and fresh-caught ahi and mahi-mahi.
Haqqi Tours provides guided tours, tickets, airport transfers and private drivers in Kauai; ask when you book the flight and we send the options.
Best time to fly from Honolulu to Kauai
Kauai is warm all year at 24 to 30 C; April to June and September to November are driest and quietest, while December to March brings whale watching, bigger north-shore surf and more rain; the roads are single carriageways, slow at weekday rush hours around Kapaa and Lihue. On the flight from Honolulu to Kauai, seasons show in fares more than in schedules: holiday departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for summer, Christmas, New Year, Eid and Easter journeys.
Return flight from Kauai to Honolulu
Coming back? Say so on the form. A return flight ticket from Kauai to Honolulu booked with the outbound is frequently cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.
How much is a flight from Honolulu to Kauai?
"How much is the Honolulu to Kauai flight?" is the question we get most, and the honest answer is that it moves every day. Low fares open months ahead and disappear as seats sell; peak seasons, school holidays and the most convenient departure times cost more; a fare with a checked bag and a flexible ticket cost more than a hand-luggage-only seat. Haqqi Tours can provide the current cost for your date shortly afterwards of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.
What the price we send includes: the ticket in the fare class you chose, the taxes and airport charges, the baggage that fare carries, and our service - comparing the airlines, booking, sending the electronic ticket and helping if the flight changes. We tell you clearly if a bag or a seat costs extra on that fare.
Cheapest flight from Honolulu to Kauai: how to pay less
The cheapest flight from Honolulu to Kauai is usually booked early, flown mid-week and chosen with the baggage you actually need. These are the rules our booking desk applies on every booking:
- Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are typically cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
- Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which frequently carry the lowest fares
- Tell us if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
- Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
- Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
- Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we check
When you complete the form, mention if you can move your dates. We scan the fares around them and send the cheapest Honolulu to Kauai flight first, then the alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.
Is baggage included in the Honolulu to Kauai flight ticket?
Not always. Full-service fares generally include a checked bag; low-cost and basic fares include hand luggage only. We state exactly what each fare includes before you book and add a bag where it is cheaper to do so at booking.
What if my flight is delayed or cancelled?
The carrier rebooks you and, depending on the rules that apply, may owe assistance or compensation; our WhatsApp desk helps you through it. If you have a transfer booked with us the driver tracks the flight.
Do children and infants need a ticket?
Yes, at their own fares: infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced rate, children from two need a seat and usually pay a child fare. Give the ages on the form and we apply them.
Do you provide flights in the other direction or to other cities?
We do. Haqqi Tours books any route - the return from Kauai to Honolulu, or onward flights from Kauai - and puts it all on one booking.
What is the difference between economy and business class?
Business class means a much larger seat, a meal, lounge access, priority boarding and normally a more flexible ticket; economy is the practical choice for a 35 minutes flight. We send the cost of both.
What is the cheapest flight from Honolulu to Kauai?
Normally a mid-week departure booked well ahead, on whichever airline has the lowest fare that day, with only the baggage you need. Give us flexible dates on the form and we search the cheapest Honolulu to Kauai flight across all of them.
Can I change or cancel my flight ticket?
It depends on the carrier and the fare class - flexible tickets can be changed, the cheapest usually cannot. We spell out the conditions before you confirm and handle any change for you afterwards.
Are there direct flights from Honolulu to Kauai?
Of course. Hawaiian Airlines and Southwest operate non-stop flights from Honolulu to Kauai 10+ a day, and non-stop is what we book unless a connection is clearly cheaper and you prefer it.
How early should I be at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport?
About two hours before an international flight and ninety minutes before a domestic one; more at peak times or if you have bags to check. Low-cost airlines close bag drop strictly on time.
Which airlines fly from Honolulu to Kauai?
On this route: Hawaiian Airlines and Southwest. Fares, departure times and baggage rules differ between them, so we compare all of them for your dates and send the sensible options side by side.
Can I book the Honolulu to Kauai flight for a group?
Yes, absolutely. Give the number of travellers on the form; we book the seats together in one reservation and ask the airline for a group fare where the numbers justify it.
Where do I land in Kauai?
Lihue Airport (Kauai) (LIH). Taxis and local transport leave from arrivals, and Haqqi Tours can have a driver waiting with your name.
Is it better to fly or take the train from Honolulu to Kauai?
For this route the flight is the practical choice - about 35 minutes in the air. We provide trains and transfers too and say honestly which is better for your dates.
Can I book a return flight from Kauai to Honolulu?
Certainly. Choose "return" on the form and give both dates; we compare a return fare with two singles and book the cheaper one. If the return date is not fixed, we spell out the flexible options.
Can I add extra baggage or sports equipment?
Yes, absolutely. Extra bags, skis, golf clubs and bicycles are added at booking on most airlines, cheaper than at the airport. Tell us what you are carrying and we include it in the cost.
