This modest airport with gardens offers flights to mainland U.S. cities and between Hawaii's islands. The airport does not serve as a hub for any airline carrier. Numerous inter-island flights are available daily. The airport is mostly un-walled and open-air, and the check-in is completely outside. The airport is the primary gateway to Kauai for visitors (especially tourists).

Hours of operation: Whenever flights are operational.

Machine 1 and 2 have returned with the same designs as before. Both machines are located just past TSA near the Starbucks. Still 51 cents for both machines.
Machine 3 is retired.
Machine 4 is outside Ai Ono Cafe by the post.

9/20/2026 Machine 1 - coin slot jammed. "The garden island" design is also misaligned, you need to go slightly past the design to have it pressed correctly.
