Lounges at HNL

HNL has lounges split across terminals: the Premier Club in Terminal 1 and the I.A.S.S Hawaii Lounge in Terminal 2 are both general-access Priority Pass lounges. Hawaiian Airlines also operates its own Plumeria Lounge in Terminal 2, which is a separate, airline-run product.

Insider tip

Hawaiian Airlines' Plumeria Lounge is not part of the Priority Pass network — it requires elite status, a same-day first/business ticket, or a paid day pass. Priority Pass holders should instead head to the Premier Club (Terminal 1) or I.A.S.S Hawaii Lounge (Terminal 2) depending on which terminal their gate is in, and budget time to move between terminals since HNL's layout is spread out.

Lounge availability, access policies and amenities at HNL change regularly. Verify with the lounge operator or your card/membership provider before travel.

Lounge Tips for Honolulu, Oahu

Arrive at the lounge at least 90 minutes before departure — most lounges get crowded in the final hour before peak departures.
Lounge WiFi is usually much faster and more reliable than the general terminal network — ideal for last-minute work.
Check your travel credit card benefits before buying a Priority Pass — many premium cards include complimentary lounge access.
Alliance status matters: Star Alliance Gold, oneworld Emerald/Sapphire and SkyTeam Elite Plus members can typically access partner lounges even when flying Economy.
Some lounges at HNL may be airside only — confirm whether your lounge is accessible before or after security.
