The Daniel K. Inouye International Airport now has a rail station! This station is one of four…read morestations that opened in October 2025 as part of the Skyline Segment 2 extension. The station itself is great! There are 3 elevators so it can meet the large demand of people getting to their flights with luggage. There are no escalators though, so stairs or elevators only. There are three entrances; one at the mezzanine and two at ground level. I highly recommend going to the airport using the mezzanine entrance, left to Terminal 2 (non-Hawaiian Airlines besides to Japan) and right to Terminal 1 (Hawaiian Airlines exclusive). Terminal 2 is a short walk through the Terminal 2 garage and to the bridge to the terminal. Terminal 1 is a convoluted two-step process of walking through the International Garage, going to floor 6 to the overpass to the Inter-Island Garage, crossing the garage onto the Terminal. Pro Tip: If you're going to Waikīkī, buy your Holo Card at the Station and take the W Line, which a 3 minute walk to in front of the lei stands. If you don't want to walk that far, take Skyline one stop East to Ahua Station and meet the W Line in front of the station entrance (free transfers included). I can't wait to use the rail for my next flight!

It was a small birthday celebration--just myself, the newly minted 9-year-old grandson, and his…read moremother. The admission to the museum was pricey, even for Kama'aina, so we opted to get the Family Membership instead. The membership was for 2 adults and up to 4 kids, and also has discounts for other exhibits. After a quick sweep through the museum, and a wary observation of the flight simulator, the grandson decided it was time to eat. I got the Blue Angels Burger and he got the kids hot dog meal. I'd say the prices were reasonable, considering how much takeout and restaurant food costs these days. The burger was fat as hell and the dog wasn't Costco sized but definitely satisfied the kid. I didn't get pics of the food because I was too enthralled over the size of the patty! We spent the day also visiting the Mighty Mo, the Virtual Reality tour, and gift shop shopping also.

On Ford island and on an active military base. Which means 1. you cannot drive onto the base unless…read moreyou have a valid ID card. Buses are provided for free to each museum and visitor center. 2. You cannot bring a handbag unless it is clear see through or the size of a checkbook. You need to check it into a "locker" for $7.33. I understand that active military base, but not publishing on the website regarding the bag restrictions and then forcing people to pay it just not right. But oh well. Plan accordingly because while the buses run every 15 minutes, you need to wait. The museum is $30 entry fee but keep in mind 3/4 of the museum is currently closed for renovation. For $30 it is a bit pricey but because of the buses and the amount of employees, i understand the high price tag. 2 stars. The deep history and the significance of this place and the men and women that gave their lives makes this a 5 star must see to show your respect. Museum: very small but well done with restored planes recovered from the war. There was a Blue Angels pilot shared his experience. I was able to catch the last 5 minutes. The employees are very knowledgeable and willing to share stories. I read everything and was done in roughly 45 minutes. The museum is very small - 4 stars. Here is my recommendation: Come the visitor center it is free. Check that out and read everything. See the Submarine from the outside because it is free. Then jump on the bus because it is free. While you are driving to the warship, you pass the Arizona Memorial. Snap a photo and show your respect. Get off at the warship. Walk around the warship it is free. Then jump back on the bus and go to the Aviation museum. Again free. Walk around the outside and see the airplanes it is free. There is a gigantic helicopter it is free. Go to the back and look in the backside to get perspective. Then just back on the bus and go back to the visitor center it is free. If anyone says anything to you, go to the cafe/restaurant across from the Aviation Museum.

When they finish the east side of the Skyline rail transit system, it will be convenient to ride - if they buld a new Aloha Stadium Complex, as planned. Aloha means both hello and goodbye in the Hawaiian language. Nice station, overall. Park and ride lot; there are a couple of electric charging stations on the Diamond Head side. TheBus stops are right outside of the station. Rail cars are clean and nicely air-conditioned. City and County employee is on the car; also, security cameras are inside the station and car. Went last Sunday only to have morning rides cancelled due to issues with the tracks.

The ride is shaky as most said but nothing different from other rails I've ridden, depending on where you're sitting it's cool in comparison to the window seat I had earlier so it's all a matter of preference of view or comfort lol!! I had my doubts though see as this is another option when you want to get to a place where parking and traffic can be a nightmare. Give this ride a chance. Thank you!

Parking was affordable but limited if you come back to room late. The rooms need updating, bed needs new mattress and bathroom shower deep cleaning.

Most staff was very friendly and a few that were not helpful. Amazing view surrounding the resort.

The Makalapa/Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam Station is perhaps the most beautiful station in the…read moresystem so far. This station is one of the four stations that opened in October 2025 as a part of the Skyline Sement 2 extension. It's located right across the street from the Makalapa Gate of the Pearl Harbor Naval Base on Kamehameha & Radford. It is also about a 7 minute walk uphill to the NEX (take 1L from the Hālawa Station if that's too far for you), and Target Salt Lake about a 13 minute walk away. Two buses serve this station, with PH8 running to Pearl Harbor (10 minute frequency at rush hour; every 1 hour mid-day) and 331 to Hickam AFB every hour. The station itself is very beautiful, from the green roof, cool artwork in the mezzanine level, green-painted fences, and a nice design on the station entrance tile. This is also one of the only stations that have escalators from ground level to platform (one direction only though). Also, another surprise is the bike rack storage within the paid area with a security camera watching over the area!!! You can literally bike to the rail and keep it here while you work at Pearl Harbor. It's really nice! I haven't used it other than sightseeing on opening day, but I look forward to using it going to the UPS Store at NEX, or Target (if I don't want to wait for the 1L lol).

FYI: there are two stations on Kualakai Parkway (aka North-South Road). This station is closest to…read moreH1 and by University of Hawaii, West Oahu Campus. This is station 2 (station 1 is right by the Kroc Center). Lots of parking here but I'm finding out that the lot fills up fast and although the grassy area across the street is not designated spots, I've seen cars parked there. If you insist on parking, try Station 3 (Honouliuli) as they have the most parking. If you've never taken the rail before, it's not hard at all. You must have a Holo card with some funds on it. This card can be purchased at 7-11 or anywhere you get a bus pass. I was gifted my card and i charged/filled it with $20.00. It's basically $3.00 each direction. With that card, you tap the sensor and the gate opens. Walk, take the elevator or escalator to CP level and wait for your ride. Since this is the second to the furthest west, the only stop west is station 1 (Kroc center and closer to Ka Makana Mall) or go east and get off on your desired stop. The actual rail has forward facing and side facing (fold down) seats, as well as an area for luggage or big items. I've seen people come on with their e-bikes and regular bikes on here. Hold on to your Holo card as you'll use it again when you disembark and leave the station. Simply tap the exit screen and the gate opens. I've used the rail to and from the airport now and it's wonderful!! Only thing, there is no overnight parking for vehicle and the rail starts at 4am and runs to 10pm (for now).

AMAZING! If you are…read morethinking about booking a private tour on Oahu, STOP browsing and book ETOHI now! My experience with our guide, Jimmy, was honestly the highlight of our entire Hawaiian cruise. This isn't just a sightseeing tour--it's a 10 hour, personalized, authentic, and unforgettable island adventure tailored just for you. Jimmy didn't just drive us around; he gave us a genuine, local experience and no hassle. Pick up was quick and right outside the cruise terminal. We settled in and he quickly got to know us. After making sure we were fed and watered, he went over what we wanted to see. He made sure we hit them all and then some, sharing incredible stories and insights into Hawaiian culture along the way. The absolute best moment was when Jimmy pulled over to a tourist viewing spot and told us to "jump the rail." We were instantly rewarded with unbelievable, sweeping ocean views that were completely free of crowds. It felt like we had a secret window into the island's beauty. This "rule-follower" didn't hesitate to jump the rail again ;). And let's talk about the food! Jimmy took us to local food spots I had heard about but we would never have found on our own. It was authentic, delicious, and fueled us up perfectly for the day. The level of personal service blew me away. I casually mentioned my favorite soda early in the day, and Jimmy made sure I had a 12-pack before dropping us back at the cruise ship. That attention to detail is what sets ETOHI apart. He truly cares about making your day perfect. If you want a tour guide who delivers a personalized itinerary, shares cultural depth, and treats you like family--Jimmy is your guy. Book this tour! You won't regret supporting this amazing local business.
