★2.5(786 reviews)OGG · Premier Club
Maui's most flexible lounge — Priority Pass, Hawaiian Premier Club or pay at the door.
The Premier Club sits airside on the upper (2nd) level of Kahului's single terminal, opposite Gate 17. It's a Hawaiian Airlines Premier Club and the more flexible of OGG's two lounges: Priority Pass members are welcome, eligible premium Hawaiian Airlines passengers can use it as part of their ticket, and paying guests can buy in when there's space. The room leans into its setting, with island-inspired decor, tropical accents and large windows that flood the space with natural light and look out over Maui's landscape. It's a quiet, low-key place to settle before a flight rather than a full-service flagship — expect light refreshments, soft drinks, Wi-Fi, air conditioning and TV. With the longer hours of the two lounges (roughly 06:00 to 20:30 daily), it's the default choice for most departures from Kahului.
Crowding · busy at peak
A workable spot for light pre-flight tasks, with reliable Wi-Fi and some power outlets. Dedicated work surfaces are limited, so it suits email and calls more than long working sessions.
The Premier Club keeps food and drink simple, with a light selection of snacks and soft drinks rather than a full buffet. The focus is on a relaxed pre-flight refresher with a local, Hawaiian feel — think coffee and fresh fruit over hot meals. All food and drink must be consumed inside the lounge.
