TRANSPORTATION
Hotel pick-up is available from 7 convenient pick-up points in Waikiki with departure times ranging from 3:35-4:20 pm depending on your departure location.

Please arrive at your departure location 10 minutes prior to the scheduled departure time, as Chiefs is unable to wait for guests arriving late.
