THE BUS

Route and Schedule Information: (808) 848-5555. Website: http://www.thebus.org

O‘ahu's bus system, logically dubbed "TheBUS," offers island-wide service. The cost for a one-way fare is $2 for adults and $1 for elementary and high school students; exact change is appreciated. People carrying large suitcases or baggage are not allowed on TheBUS. Riders are allowed to transfer to any connecting line as long as it is going in the same general direction. Request a transfer slip from the bus driver when you board the bus.

A $20 Visitor Pass (good for 4 consecutive days) can be bought from ABC Stores in Waikiki and the Ala Moana Shopping Center and from the Bus Pass Office. This may be a good option for attendees relying on the bus for transportation during the workshop.

From Waikiki, take Bus #4 to the University of Hawai‘i.

CAR RENTALS

Cars can be rented from the Honolulu International Airport and also in Waikiki. Major companies include Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Hertz, National, and Thrifty. For phone numbers (both toll-free and local), click here.
