About Kapalua Airport
Kapalua Airport is a small regional airport serving West Maui and the nearby communities of Lahaina, Kaanapali, Napili and Kapalua. Opened in 1987 and now operated by the State of Hawaii, it focuses on commuter inter-island flights connecting West Maui with Honolulu and other Hawaiian destinations. Located about 11 km (7 mi) north of Lahaina along Honoapiilani Highway, the airport offers a compact, open-air passenger terminal and a single runway. It is served by propeller commuter aircraft, and operations are limited to daylight hours with no jet service. Ground access is straightforward for travelers continuing to Lahaina town, Kaanapali, Napili or Kapalua resorts, with taxis, rideshare, shuttles and pre-arranged private transfers available. Public bus service does not stop directly at the airport, so booking ahead is helpful. With its small size and relaxed pace, the airport keeps arrivals and departures quick and easy for visitors staying in West Maui. Basic passenger facilities and a short walk from curb to gate make it a convenient gateway to Maui's western coast.
