This is not the case with HA; they arrive at the inter-island terminal, not the commuter terminal.

I always walk. Takes about 15 minutes.

FYI; love the shell collection in the RCC, and the very helpful ladies that work there!
+1. MauiUAflyer hit it exact. I did it last month. Walk was easy and 15 minutes tops. Shuttle is just as easy but I prefer the open air walk and visiting the gardens on the lower level to waste some time.
