A practical guide to arriving at Kona International Airport (KOA) and planning private transportation to Kailua-Kona, Waikoloa and the Kohala Coast.
Kona International Airport (KOA) is the main airport for the west side of Hawaii Island. Travellers commonly continue from the airport to Kailua-Kona, Waikoloa and resort areas along the Kohala Coast, so arranging ground transportation before arrival can make the first part of the trip much easier.


Distances on Hawaii Island vary considerably. A transfer into Kailua-Kona is very different from a longer journey north toward Waikoloa, Mauna Lani or Hualalai, so provide your exact hotel, resort or address when requesting a quote.
Include your airline and flight number with the booking request so pickup planning can be matched to your scheduled arrival and adjusted when necessary.
Families and resort travellers often arrive with several checked bags. Tell OTOMOGO your passenger and luggage count so the local transportation partner can confirm a suitable vehicle.
