Nothing beats the genuine aloha spirit you'll experience with a Kauai Custom Lei Greeting (Choose Your Lei) – Lihue Airport. From the moment you step off the plane, this 15-minute personalized welcome transforms your arrival into something truly special for families and small groups of 2-7 travelers on the same flight.
Picture this: you're collecting your luggage when a friendly greeter in distinctive dark-purple and white aloha wear approaches with a personalized sign featuring your group's name. Each person receives their own handcrafted fresh lei – choose between the popular Classic Orchid Lei or upgrade to the Deluxe Orchid Lei with its varying styles and orchid colors. Your greeter will happily snap photos using your phone or camera, capturing these precious first island moments.
The service runs daily from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM Hawaiian Standard Time at Lihue Airport (3901 Mokulele Loop, Lihue, HI 96766). Here's what makes this experience special – the staff actually monitors your scheduled flight, so whether you arrive early or late, someone will be there waiting. Your greeter doesn't just hand over leis and disappear; they'll offer any assistance you need to help your group start their stay with ease.
You'll meet your greeter at the baggage claim area as you exit the terminal. The service welcomes travelers with mobility needs and is both stroller and wheelchair accessible. Note that transportation is not included.
Book at least 48 hours ahead for cancellations, though 4-day advance booking is required for guaranteed availability. A $10 late fee applies if the online calendar is blocked. Make sure to provide accurate flight details including your airline and flight number when reserving. The service is non-refundable if you miss your greeting or fail to notify of flight changes, and flights arriving after 9:00 PM may not be serviced. If your itinerary changes, just give them a heads up so your experience goes off without a hitch.
