Kahului Airport (OGG) Parking

If you pick up a passenger at the Airport, use the free (up to 60 mins) cell phone waiting lot at Hemaloa Street, off Keolani Place. Stay in your car until your party has collected baggage and calls you to be picked up at the curb.

Other parking options are available in the 1,437 space lot across from the passenger terminal. If exiting wwitin 15 minutes of entry, the first half hour is free; if exiting after 15 mins of entry the first half hour is $1.

Automatic ticket dispensers issue parking tickets at the entrance to each parking area. Have your ticket, cash or credit card ready and present the ticket to the cashier as you exit.
Parking designation row letters are posted to help you find your vehicle--take note of the designation letter to find your car when you return. Place your parking ticket in a safe place and not on your car's dashboard.

As an alternative to on-site parking, there are off-airport parking at Kahului airport options which may offer significant discounts. Most have shuttle vans or buses which operate from their facilities to the terminals, and feature secure facilities with security guards and cameras 24 hours.

Many local hotels offer up to 2 weeks free parking with one night stay. This can be especially convenient if you have an early flight and need to park at Kahului airport. They provide shuttle service too.

Nothing is more frustrating than circling an airport parking lot looking for space when you're already running late for a flight or paying an exorbitant amount for parking when you return from a trip. You can avoid these common predicaments by doing your homework before leaving to park your vehicle at the airport.

Most airports offer multiple parking lots at various rates (hourly, daily and economy). Some airports even offer costly, but convenient valet parking. Visit the airport website or call the airport to determine the location and rates for each type of parking garage or service. During peak travel times, it's also prudent to check the short-term and long-term parking lot availability before leaving for the airport, so you can make other arrangements if lots are full. Parking in a daily garage (short-term parking) instead of an economy (long-term parking) lot for multiple days will burn a big hole in your wallet.

You’ll find commercial off-site parking lots near most major airports. These parking lots are farther from the airport, but the distance is often compensated with lower prices, 24-hour security, car-to-terminal shuttle services and other perks like frequent parker programs. Aside from off-site commercial parking lots allow you to reserve a parking spot in advance, which can be a real timesaver during peak travel times. In addition, many airport hotels offer stay, park and fly deals in which you stay at the hotel the night before your flight and then you can park your car at the hotel for free or a low daily rate. Just make sure the hotel parking lot is secure as some aren’t monitored around-the-clock like airport and commercial lots.

It’s too easy to forget where you parked or where you put the parking ticket after an extended trip. Even if you’re running late, take the time to note where you parked in your cell phone, PDA or on the parking ticket if you take it with you. Just make sure you don’t lose the parking ticket, because most airports charge a hefty fee for missing tickets. For that reason, it may be safer to leave the ticket in your car.
