Spacious, free wi-fi, bar, some snacks (albeit nothing to write home about), and good views, but UA really ought to install a shower or two.

UA club in HNL, unimpressed!
Stopped in briefly as we didn't have much time until our red eye back to LAX. Better than no club at all but kind of a dump. I hope they are on the list for a makeover. The chairs were all rather uncomfortable being mostly bamboo, wicker and tropical themed cushions that seemed to have lost their cush. Several big flat screened TVs blaring and dim fluorescent lighting.
Oh well, the drinking water was cold and then we were on our way!

While I entirely agree with above 2 comments, I respectfully suggest that the old "Red Carpet Club" is much more interesting, with better outside views, than the combined JAL/American HNL club in HNL.

Is the former HNL IFL in use as an additional seating area, or is it simply closed off like the old IFL was at the A-1 RCC at EWR before it was closed last fall?

Having made 3 MRs to HNL over the last eight weeks, I am starting to really appreciate the HNL club. I just pretend it is 1990, Japan is out to conquer the world, and that lounge is killer!
Even the carrots there were slimy 3/3 times...but they have come a long way. Dragon ladies at the reception also were not particularly helpful.
