At HNL, my hubby has always had his own cell phone waiting area in the parking lot of the little strip mall with the Starbucks and Jamba Juice. Parking and snacks!

If it hasn't been already, it will be soon. That was a good waiting spot, and so was the lei stand area. Nothing beats waiting at the Airport Trade Center, though, as TF mentioned, with its Jamba Juice, Starbucks, and Ninja Sushi.

OGG has always let you wait for arrivals in the parking lot: drive in, take a ticket, first 1/2 hour free. Need to wait longer than a 1/2 hour? Exit after 25 minutes; re-enter on a new ticket.

It's good to see some of the $1,500,000,000 (billion!) dollars in improvements at HNL going to good use!

Fact. At OGG you can hang out in the parking lot in front of the arrivals area, look for your party, and then exit the parking lot and pick up your guests in probably 3-4 minutes. 6 minutes faster than HNL.

They have been doing interior refurbs of the Diamond Head concourse too. I'm guessing Linda Lingle's plan to tear down those two end concourses and rebuild them from the ground up fell short?
