Airport

Kona International Airport (KOA) (18 Miles) is the primary airport on the Island of Hawaii. It serves international, overseas and interisland flights. KOA is located in West Hawaii in Keahole. The Big Island is known for its active volcanoes, orchids, golf courses and scenic coastline. We look forward to welcoming you to Kona.

Airline tickets to the Hawaiian Islands can really vary. Please check departures from all your nearest airports, in some cases the savings can be far greater than the inconvenience. Also, consider inner island flights, especially from Oahu to Kona. Consider using www.kayak.com for price comparisons.
