Lanai Airport[2], also written as Lānaʻi Airport, is a state-owned public-use airport located three nautical miles or about 3.4 miles (6 km) southwest of the central business district of Lanai City (Lānaʻi City), in Maui County, Hawaii. The airport began regular operations in 1930.[3] It is the only airport serving the island of Lanai (Lānaʻi).
It is included in the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2021–2025, in which it is categorized as a non-hub primary commercial service facility.[4]
The airport covers an area of 505 acres (204 ha) at an elevation of 1,308 feet (399 m) above mean sea level. It has one runway designated 3/21 with an asphalt surface measuring 5,001 by 150 feet (1,524 x 46 m).
For the 12-month period ending July 31, 2016, the airport had 6,326 aircraft operations, an average of 17 per day: 65% air taxi, 25% scheduled commercial, 9% general aviation and 1% military. In April 2022, there were no aircraft based at this airport.
There were two commercial airlines, Mokulele Airlines with the Cessna Grand Caravan 208EX and Ohana by Hawaiian with the ATR-42. Due to Hawaiian Airlines suspending the Ohana service, Mokulele is the only commercial airline that flies to Lanai.
The government of Hawaii did not charge landing fees from March 2021 to help during the pandemic.[5]
