Non-stop flights are available through United Airlines from Los Angeles and San Francisco, American Airlines from Los Angeles, Alaska Airlines from Seattle, US Airways from Phoenix. United, American, Delta, Northwest, TWA, Hawaiian and Continental serve Honolulu International Airport (HNL).

Traveling to Kauai from Honolulu is a quick "island hop" of just 25 minutes on either Hawaiian, Island Air or Go. Visitors will enjoy the brief journey's quite dramatic arrival with an aerial view of Hauupu Ridge, Nawiliwili Bay, and Kilohana Crater, impressive first images of the island. Landing and experiencing that first balmy breeze and a 360 degree vision of the island as you take it all in is unforgettable.

Each baggage claim area has restrooms, public telephones, and free tourist information.
