All Nippon Airways (ANA) will end operations of the ANA Express Bus on May 31 and transition to using the Waikiki Trolley.
The ANA Express Bus was a free bus service exclusively for ANA Mileage Club members, operating non-stop between Waikiki and Ala Moana in as little as 12 minutes. The buses were electric vehicles featuring the same sea turtle design as the Airbus A380 “FLYING HONU” aircraft, and a route to the Kakaʻako Farmers Market on Saturday mornings was also offered.
From June 1, the service will switch to the Waikiki Trolley. Eligible routes will be the Ala Moana Line (Pink Line) between Waikiki and Ala Moana Center, and the Kakaʻako Line (Yellow Line), which runs to the Kakaʻako Farmers Market on Saturdays only. Operations will be handled by Enoa Corporation.
Eligible users are ANA Mileage Club members who have a round-trip reservation on ANA-operated flights between Tokyo and Honolulu under an ANA flight number, including codeshare flights operated by other airlines. Up to three accompanying children under 18 years old are allowed per member, excluding the member themself, and companions cannot use the service on their own.
The boarding period is 30 days including the day of arrival, with no limit on the number of rides per day. Passengers must obtain a boarding ticket in advance and present it when boarding.
