Time to do Old Lahaina Luau and fly back to Oahu?
 

We are staying in Oahu but would like to go to Maui for the day. The Luau ends at 9, and the last flight is at 10 back to Oahu. Is an hour enough, reasonably, to get to the plane? Its listed as about 36 minutes. Is it even reasonable?

laurenasholock:
If am not mistaken the airport it's about a 30 minute drive from Lahaina. If you really want to do it and to play it safe I would leave to the airport by 8:30 p.m. are you planning to rent a car? or are you going to depend on a cab? I went to the OLL this past June and I really enjoyed it I don't want to discourage you but, is it worth it to pay for round trip fare and probably rent a car, and then have to run out to make it back? Good luck I hope this helped and have a great time.

No, I don't think so.

Nope

Why not stay overnight if you want to go to the luau? There are good luaus in Oahu too. We went to the one at the Polynesian Cultural Center which was fun. There was lots to do there before the Luau too.

Even though you'll be flying an island hopper, you'll still have to return your car (I'm assuming you're renting one) and get through security. If I had a 10pm flight, the absolute latest I'd leave Lahaina is 8:00pm.

(I'm assuming you're flying out of OGG and not the small airport in Kapalua.)

OK thanks so much. I didnt think so but better to ask than assume!
