Lāna‘i Air, operated by Western Aircraft, Inc., launched a new route connecting Moloka‘i and O‘ahu. The expanded service between Moloka‘i Airport (MKK) in Ho‘olehua and Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL) in Honolulu includes four daily flights serviced by a Cessna SkyCourier, a twin engine turboprop airplane with a spacious cabin that seats 19 passengers.
For added safety, each flight is operated by two pilots. A passenger ramp allows for greater accessibility during boarding.
“We’ve seen many requests over the years to add more service to Moloka‘i,” said Hawai‘i State Sen. Lynn DeCoite. “Residents have made it clear that the need is there, so I’m glad to see that Lāna‘i Air has listened and acted to bring more options to the community.”
One-way tickets for the Moloka‘i route are priced at $169. Fares are inclusive of taxes and fees and include two complimentary checked bags, as well as amenities like airport lounge access and airport shuttle service on O‘ahu. Guests enjoy further flexibility with zero fees for changes (made at least two hours prior to departure) or cancellations (at least 48 hours prior to departure)…
