Skyline station parking: the four park-and-ride lots

Skyline has four free park-and-ride lots: Keoneʻae (UH West Oʻahu) and Honouliuli (Hoʻopili) on the Leeward side, Hālawa (Aloha Stadium), and Kahauiki (Kalihi Transit Center). They are free for anyone riding Skyline or TheBus, with a 24-hour limit.

Hawaii News Now reported in May 2026 that the Keoneʻae lot is full by around 8 AM on weekdays.

Add your wait for the train: Skyline runs every 10 minutes until about 8:30 PM and every 15 minutes after that. Skyline does not reach downtown yet, so a trip into town finishes on TheBus, for example from Āhua or Kahauiki. The Skyline rail guide has every station and its bus connections.

Which lot to use

  • From Kapolei, Makakilo or ʻEwa: Keoneʻae and Honouliuli are 2 minutes apart on the train. Keoneʻae is the lot reported to fill on weekday mornings; Honouliuli has 40 more stalls but no TheBus service.
  • From ʻAiea, Salt Lake or Moanalua: Hālawa is the largest lot, with 590 stalls, 12 minutes by train to Kahauiki.
  • Heading west from town (to the airport, Pearl Harbor or the Leeward side): Kahauiki is the only lot at the town end of the line, with 95 stalls.
  • If the lot is full: a drop-off works at any station. TheBus stops at Keoneʻae, Hālawa and Kahauiki, but not Honouliuli.

Park and ride, or drive the whole way?

Parking at a station adds a train ride, and usually a bus at the other end. Whether that beats driving all the way depends on H-1 traffic when you leave and when you need to arrive.

Nalu compares driving the whole way with taking Skyline and TheBus, including getting to the station, for your exact trip and the time you want to go.

Common questions

Is parking free at Skyline stations?

Yes. The city's Skyline park-and-ride lots are free for transit riders, including TheBus riders, with a 24-hour limit.

Which Skyline stations have parking?

Four: Keoneʻae (UH West Oʻahu), Honouliuli (Hoʻopili), Hālawa (Aloha Stadium) and Kahauiki (Kalihi Transit Center).

How many stalls does each Skyline park-and-ride have?

The city lists 304 stalls at Keoneʻae, 344 at Honouliuli, 590 at Hālawa and 95 at Kahauiki.

Does the Keoneʻae park-and-ride fill up?

Yes. Hawaii News Now reported in May 2026 that it fills by around 8 AM on weekdays. Honouliuli, the next station east, is the closest other lot, but TheBus does not serve it, so you need to drive or be dropped off there.

Yes. Kahauiki (Kalihi Transit Center) has a 95-stall park-and-ride. Enter from Middle Street toward the Kalihi Transit Center.
