Local Transportation

TaxisThere is taxi service available outside the baggage claim area at the airport. An average fare from the airport to Waikīkī or the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa campus is between $30 and $35.

You can also call:The CAB 808–422–2222Charley’s Taxi 808–233–3333City Taxi 808–524–2121EcoCab 808–979–1010

Airport shuttle services (rates are subject to change)Speedi Shuttle 877–242–5777 airport to Waikīkī for $15.48 ($24 roundtrip)Reliable Shuttle 888–924–9292 airport to Waikīkī for $12 ($22 roundtrip)VIP Transportation Airport Shuttle 866–836–0317 airport to Waikīkī for $12 ($22 roundtrip)

TheBUSRoute and schedule information 808–848–5555 Website: theBUS.org

O‘ahu’s bus system, logically dubbed “TheBUS,” offers island-wide service. The cost for a one-way fare is $2.50 for adults and $1.25 for elementary and high school students; exact change is required. People carrying large suitcases or baggage are not allowed on TheBUS. Riders are allowed to transfer to any connecting line

as long as it is going in the same general direction. Request a transfer slip from the bus driver when you board the bus.

A $35 4-day pass can be bought from ABC Stores in Waikīkī and the Ala Moana Shopping Center. This may be a good option for attendees relying on the bus for transportation during their stay.

Restaurant GuideThere is no shortage of dining guides to be had in a tourist town like this one, and here is yet another. The NFLRC restaurant guide has evolved over more than two decades with you, the hungry participant, in mind. We deem you to be adventurous, ecologically-minded, and not particularly wealthy (with an occasional craving for something really bad for you). Actually, that describes rather well the people who put this together. We tried to include a little of everything. We always appreciate your input by way of additions, updates, comments, and criticisms.

Breakfast in ParadiseGet up early and enjoy the pleasures of a leisurely breakfast. Possibilities exist for all tastes and budgets. Here are a few recommendations.

HEAVENLY Island Life Style $$ 342 Seaside Ave 923–1100Pick up some hot malasadas and coffee and take them down the road to Waikīkī or Kaimana Beach. Introduced to the islands by Portuguese immigrants, malasadas are holeless donuts sprinkled with sugar and served hot. Ono (Hawaiian for ‘delicious’)!

Hau Tree Lanai $$$ 2863 Kalākaua Ave 921–7066Outdoor tables, nestled under the hau tree, look right out at Kaimana Beach and the ocean. They serve a very good eggs Benedict as well as omelets and specialties like poi pancakes. Located in the New Otani Hotel, this is the perfect place to have a special breakfast.

A Special DinnerTry Hawai‘i’s special brand of East-meets-West cuisine at one of these restaurants. All have very nice atmospheres and are more pricey than your everyday dinner (entrees are from $25–50 per person). The place to go for a treat or a special occasion.

Alan Wong’s $$$$ 1857 S. King St #208 949–2526

Roy’s Waikīkī $$$ 226 Lewers St 923–7697

Top of Waikiki $$$ 2270 Kalākaua Ave 923-3877
