Flights from Honolulu to Tokyo: the best tips from KAYAK users' own experiences

Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from Honolulu to Tokyo 
michaelFlew with ANA-Mar 2026
Get to the airport early to experience the ANA lounge.
ChrisFlew with ANA-Mar 2026
I would say that for international flights, be prepared for a possibly very long walk to your gate after security check. Also, there is an agricultural check for leaving the islands that you have to queue up for before you even get inside the airport. So that is another delay to prepare for. Otherwise, it’s a typical flight, just leave yourself some extra time for these added steps.
