Review: IASS Lounge Honolulu Airport

With our flight from Honolulu departing at 2PM, we got to the airport at around 12:40PM. That’s earlier than usual, but Honolulu Pride was going on the day we were there (unbeknownst to us), and the parade route blocked the way to the airport, so we were told to leave extra time.

The IASS lounge at HNL was the worst lounge I have visited. If you’re at HNL don’t waste your time here. Our visit was yesterday, Sept 9, 2023 and it hasn’t changed at all from the review written. The Plumeria Lounge at HNL in much better but a long walk from E gates.

This lounge is possibly the worse lounge in the world. Been to over 80 countries and aside from the lounge in Casablanca, Morocco. This is the worse. $25.00 for water and soda. Such an outright rip off.

In the nearly two years since this review was published, they haven’t changed the WiFi password.

I agree with this person's review of Honolulu Airport, as it is chaos at the Hawaiian check-in area every time I come (I think the airport in Lihue on Kaua'i is actually more efficient). Signage is terrible and the employees don't display the "aloha spirit." Time to update the airport. I'm glad I didn't try the IASS Lounge, looked bad in the review. But the Hawaiian Airlines Premier Club Lounge and The Plumeria Lounge wasn't really that much better.

I couldn't agree more regarding the insolent attitude of the Hawaiian Airline gate people I've dealt with for more than 20 years. I haven't visited their lounge but the description matches what I would expect.

Accurate review of the facilities at HNL. The interisland terminal is finally getting the long-awaited expansion and redesign that is needed to accommodate the growth of their hometown airline into the international long-haul carrier it has become. Hawaiian's inflight service is top notch. Wonderful crews and excellent service. In First/Business Class, the lie-flat seats have fitted mattress pads in the overhead bins... definitely make the seat very comfortable for sleeping. Auckland to Honolulu I slept for a solid 6 hours of a 10-hour flight.

One fun fact about the IASS Lounge is that it's against the rules to bring in and consume outside food (the lounge doesn't offer anything to eat).

HNL worked great for us when we departed on UA for the mainland this summer. Short and easy check-in line, very short pre-check line, and then a nice five minute walk to the United Club with great views of the tarmac.
