Gate or UC to bus stop is 5 minutes - breezeway to bag claim, Diamond Head exit, up stairs back to departure level, cross departure lanes to island. Swipe Holo card. Stop one-block from home in 25 minutes
Lyft/Uber is so thin here, ride share passengers can be waiting longer than 25 minutes just for their driver to show. Heck, bags were still coming off conveyor belt for my flight when I passed thru bag claim after having lunch at the UC. I don't want to overcrowd the HNL UC, but a quick 15 minute bite to eat (or a Dole Whip) there for eligible arriving passengers will still get them to bag claim before their bags show up.
