Hawaiian Airlines Premier Club
★3.5(1,002 reviews)HNL
Hawaiian's basic HNL club — Premier members, elites and inter-island First Class.
The Premier Club is Hawaiian Airlines' more basic lounge at Honolulu, located on a lower level near Gate A18. It's open to Hawaiian's Premier Club members, Gold and Platinum elite customers and inter-island First Class passengers. The airline is candid that the Premier Club is fundamentally a waiting room rather than a full lounge: it offers comfortable seating, complimentary Wi-Fi, a few basic snacks and soft drinks, but not much beyond that — no hot buffet, bar or other major amenities. For island hopping it's a reasonable place to wait out of the terminal bustle, but premium long-haul and mainland First Class travellers are better served by Hawaiian's more premium Plumeria Lounge, which sits separately. If you qualify only for the Premier Club, set your expectations accordingly: a quiet seat, a snack and Wi-Fi before your flight.
Crowding · moderate
Fine for waiting and checking email with Wi-Fi and some power, but it's a basic waiting room rather than a work-friendly lounge.
A minimal offering — a few basic snacks with complimentary soft drinks, suited to a quick refreshment while you wait rather than a meal. There's no hot buffet or bar.
