Private charter to & from Honolulu

Honolulu is Hawaii’s capital and its economic center, the heart of an island that holds about two-thirds of the state’s population, and home to its corporate headquarters, the University of Hawaii at Manoa and the largest concentration of hotels in the islands along Waikiki. Tourism is the biggest industry, but the military is a close second: Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam and the headquarters of U.S. Indo-Pacific Command make Oahu the hub of American defense in the Pacific. Healthcare, real estate, construction and government round out an economy that ties together all of the Hawaiian islands.

Most trips between the islands mean airline schedules, security lines and a crowded terminal at the main airport. Flying private lets you choose your departure time and fly direct to smaller airports close to where you are going, such as Lanai, Molokai, Kapalua on west Maui or Hana, instead of routing through the busiest hubs. That makes it practical to visit a resort, check on a property or attend a meeting on another island and be back the same day. On Oahu itself, visitors come for Waikiki’s beaches, the Pearl Harbor memorials, Diamond Head, Iolani Palace and the surf towns of the North Shore.
