Las Vegas Mccarran International (LAS) is an accommodating airport and getting there is simple. If you are arriving by bus, routes 108, 109 and WAX lead to Terminal 1, while Terminal 3 is accessible by the WAX and CS routes. Taxi drop-offs are also a viable option.

After a five-to-six-hour flight to Honolulu International (HNL), the H-1 Interstate freeway is the best option for drivers, while SpeediShuttle and taxi services are other convenient ways to get to your hotel.

Attractions

Pay respects at the USS Arizona Memorial in Honolulu’s Pearl Harbor. You can also visit the USS Missouri Battleship while in Honolulu and tour the active military base Ford Island. Hikers will enjoy a trek up Diamond Head, and sunbathers should flock to Waikiki Beach.

Hanauma Bay offers a look at active sea life that make the habitat home, and the Waikiki Aquarium is the second oldest aquarium in the United States.

Hints and tips

Plan ahead if you are touring other islands in Hawaii. Molokai, which sits directly to the east of O’ahu, is accessible through Molokai Airport (MKK), and you must rent a car on Molokai because there is no public transportation on the island. If you are going to Kauai, you will fly into Lihu Airport (LIH).
