Following the announcement from the Hawai‘i Department of Transportation (HDOT) that Transportation Network Companies will be eligible to pick up customers at neighbor island airports, beginning Feb. 1, 2019, Uber plans to begin operations at the following neighbor island airports:
  • Kona International Airport (KOA)
  • Hilo International Airport (KOA)
  • Kahului Airport (OGG)
  • Kapalua Airport (JHM)
  • Līhue Airport (LIH)

“We applaud the Hawai‘i Department of Transportation’s decision to allow rideshare pickups at neighbor island airports,” said Nathan Hambley, Uber spokesperson. “We’re thankful to the riders, drivers and community members who expressed support for this change. It’s good news for Maui, Kaua‘i and Big Island Uber drivers, as well as for neighbor island residents and visitors.
