What is the best way (and cheapest) to get from Honolulu airport to the island of Kauai? Is there a ferry?

Leigh N asked:


I’d like to fly into Honolulu airport in the afternoon and get to Lihue, Kauai by night time. Any ideas?

    When we visited Hawaii a year and a half ago, we flew on Aloha Airlines. They were great and prompt. I am not sure, but I believe that there has since been a service opened to ferry people to other islands from Oahu.

    You can go right on Aloha Airlines and get tickets for $39. Not sure if thats one way or round trip but it only takes about 40 minutes to fly. I don’t know if it’s the cheapest but definitely the quickest.

    Best and cheapest way to get to Kauai from Honolulu is flying. Check prices at Go Airlines, Aloha Airlines, and Hawaiian Airlines. Go Airlines recently offered a special for one way tickets for $19. Other airlines will match. There were restrictions, though.
    Check prices and schedules with these airline web sites:

    Regarding the Hawaii Superferry, it is currently not able to operate until it completes an environmental impact assessment. The prices for the ferry were a bit higher that airfare anyway. The Hawaii Superferry situation is very touchy and controversial right now.

    It’s cheaper to fly, the rates for the superferry are one way $44 - $62.
