NEW PARKING RATES AT STATE AIRPORTS BEGIN DEC. 1
The new rates will take effect Dec. 1, 2015.
The daily maximum rate at five Hawaii airports will increase by $3. The maximum rate for 24 hours of parking at Honolulu International Airport (HNL) will change from $15 to $18. The maximum daily rate at Kahului Airport (OGG), Kapalua Airport (JHM), Lihue Airport (LIH), Hilo International Airport (ITO) and Kona International Airport at Keahole (KOA) will increase from $12 to $15.
The rate for the fourth hour of stay is also being adjusted. At HNL the fourth hour will increase by $3 (see Table 1 below). At neighbor island airports the fourth hour rate will increase by $2 (see Table 2 below). After the fifth hour the daily rate will be applied. Signs notifying the public of the change will be posted at key locations beginning on Nov. 1, 2015.
Short term rates for airport customers parking less than four hours will not change. A free grace period is allowed for those who exit within 15 minutes. Free airport cell phone lots will continue to be available for those picking up passengers.
The additional revenue will be utilized to help support increasing operational costs for Hawaii’s airport system. The airport system is solely self sufficient and does not depend on income or sales taxes.
Parking at Hawaii Airports for a 24 hour period is still less expensive when compared with rates at mainland airports (see Table 3 below). To put it into perspective, airport parking is less expensive than overnight parking at various Oahu hotels which can cost as much as $40 a night. Parking garages in Downtown Honolulu range anywhere from $24 – $96 for 24 hours.
