Hawaiian Airlines The Plumeria Lounge
★2.6(30 reviews)HNL
Hawaiian's premium HNL lounge — Business and First passengers, plus pay-in guests.
The Plumeria Lounge is Hawaiian Airlines' flagship lounge at Honolulu and the better of the two clubs the airline runs at the airport. It's built for the carrier's premium long-haul passengers — international Business Class customers and First Class customers flying to the U.S. mainland — and, usefully, it also accepts pay-in guests, so you can buy your way in even without a premium-cabin ticket. The lounge offers a comfortable place to relax before a Hawaiian departure, with complimentary snacks, soft drinks and house wine and beer in a Hawaiian Airlines-branded space. It's a clear step up from the airline's other Honolulu lounge, the Premier Club, which is reserved for elite members and inter-island First Class passengers and sits on a lower level near Gate A18. If you're flying Hawaiian in a premium cabin to the mainland or internationally — or you simply want to pay for lounge access — the Plumeria Lounge is the one to head for.
Crowding · moderate
A comfortable spot for email and light tasks before a flight, with Wi-Fi and power at seating, though it's geared towards relaxing rather than focused work.
A relaxed offering of complimentary snacks with soft drinks and house wine and beer — enough for a comfortable pre-flight refreshment rather than a full meal.
