There are two cell-phone lots at HNL Airport that provide free parking - Diamond Head Cell Phone Lot and Ewa Cell Phone Lot. These first-come, first-served waiting areas are designated only for picking-up passengers. It is not permitted to stay longer than 60 minutes. If you leave your vehicle unattended, it will be towed.
Once your passengers have collected their baggage and they are ready to be picked up, they should give you a call so that you can swing around to the front of the airport to pick them up.
On Aolele Street, the Diamond Head Cell Phone Area is conveniently located close to all three airport terminals. Considering the number of passengers that move through the airport, this waiting point can get crowded very quickly.
At the intersection of Nimitz Highway and Aolele Street, there is a smaller parking area, Ewa Cell Phone Waiting Area. It is approximately 5 - 10 minutes' walk from Terminals 1 and 2. The capacity is rather limited, and during busy periods, such as holiday weekends, it is almost impossible to find a space.
