TNlovestocruise Posted July 8, 2006 #1 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Sailing on the Pride of America in one week (7/15/06)! We bought our plane tickets from Priceline instead of NCL. Going to stay in Waikiki the night before we sail. What is the best way to get from the Airport to our motel and most economical? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miko Posted July 8, 2006 #2 Share Posted July 8, 2006 hi, there is a bus shuttle from the airport to any Waikiki hotel. It's just outside the airport, follow the signs to the bus station. If i remember its cheaper to buy round trip, like $14 per person. Dont forget to tell the driver the hotel u will be staying, he will stop right in front of it!

spleen93 Posted July 8, 2006 #3 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I think that's a shuttle, not a bus. The Bus (public transportation system on Oahu) doesn't allow luggage. Shuttle/taxi is probably your best way to get from airport to Waikiki. Shuttle cheaper. Taxi faster and more space. Spleen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogi Posted July 8, 2006 #4 Share Posted July 8, 2006 We are flying in to honolulu{from Maui} and renting a car. We are then on a cruise. Is it best to rent our car at the airport or a location in town? Would there be a shuttle at the airport if, say my husband dropped me off at the ship with the luggage and then returned the car? Does that sound like the best way.? Thanks in advance for any help. Yogi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiera99 Posted July 8, 2006 #5 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Yes, there is a shuttle back to the pier, if you decide to drop the car off at the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNlovestocruise Posted July 8, 2006 Author #6 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Would using Oahu's Bus system be a good idea to use from Waikiki to tour Pearl Harbor? From what I understand the bus stop is right outside our motel. Thank you for all of the good info?:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spleen93 Posted July 9, 2006 #7 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Yes, there is a shuttle back to the pier, if you decide to drop the car off at the airport. Are we sure about this? This was not my understanding but maybe things have changed. Spleen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bug_dan Posted July 10, 2006 #8 Share Posted July 10, 2006 It's been awhile, but last we were there, Alamo did not have a shuttle from their airport location to the pier, but did have one from the Waikiki office. If you are renting at the airport location regardless of the company, call the local office and check with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogi Posted July 10, 2006 #9 Share Posted July 10, 2006 We will be at the HHV and picking up the car at the airport. Would we be better off returning the car, shuttle back to the hotel{is there a hotel shuttle?} and then taxi to the pier? Thanks yogi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spleen93 Posted July 10, 2006 #10 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Hotels in Waikiki do not have shuttles that run between the airport and the hotel. Spleen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bug_dan Posted July 10, 2006 #11 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Many of the car rental agencies have offices in Waikiki very near to the Hilton Hawaii. You might consider picking the car up at the airport and dropping it off at one of the Waikiki offise, IF they have one. Beware, some rental agencies charge a dropoff fee, while others do not. Most of the Waikiki offices do provide shuttle service to the pier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Us2inFL Posted July 10, 2006 #12 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Enterprise has an office right at Aloha Tower Market Place (700 Fort Street 96813-4838.) We are renting a car at the Honolulu Airport and returning it three days later to the cruise pier. There is a $30 drop-off fee for a different location. NCL generally uses piers 10 and 11. Here is the map website for the Honolulu Harbor: http://www.state.hi.us/dot/harbors/honolulu.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
