# Lanai Airport (LNY) > Lanai City, US · 3.5 miles southwest of Lanai City Web: https://airport.flights/airport/lny JSON: https://airport.flights/api/airport/lny.json ## Facts - **IATA**: LNY - **ICAO**: PHNY - **Timezone**: Pacific/Honolulu - **Runways**: 1 - **Terminals**: 1 - **Passengers**: .074M/yr - **Official site**: https://airports.hawaii.gov/lny/ ## Overview ## Welcome Lanai Airport (LNY) breaks the mold of typical commercial airports. Nestled just 3.5 miles southwest of Lanai City, this facility is more akin to a rural airstrip. With no Wi-Fi, shops, or restaurants, it serves primarily as a gateway for resort guests and private flyers, offering a laid-back and quiet atmosphere in stark contrast to other bustling Hawaiian airports. The vibe here is relaxed, almost residential, and you’ll find yourself quickly stepping off the plane and into shuttles bound for the island’s interior. ## At a glance Handling just around 74,000 passengers annually, Lanai Airport supports one runway and a single passenger terminal. Hawaiian Airlines and Southern Airways Express operate here, facilitating the primary inter-island hops. With no traditional airport hustle, you'll experience swift transitions from terminal to transportation, starkly different from larger Hawaiian hubs like Honolulu. ## Terminals & layout Lanai Airport houses a single terminal emphasizing efficiency and simplicity. This no-frills terminal includes only the basic amenities: restrooms and seating. Think of it as the polar opposite of sprawling mega-terminals. If flying privately, Signature and Atlantic Aviation coordinate ground services and provide a modest lounge with a quieter waiting area, adding a touch of comfort over the spartan public terminal. ## Getting to and from the city The airport is conveniently located just a short drive away from the heart of Lanai City. Several transportation options are at your disposal, although most require advance arrangement. The Four Seasons shuttle is available for guests, but its schedule and availability vary. Alternatively, rental cars from local providers, pre-arranged ground transportation, and Lanai Taxi Services can get you to your destination, albeit with some pre-planning involved due to the lack of on-site rental counters. ## Traveller essentials Prepare before your arrival: the airport is bereft of dining, shopping, or even vending machines, and there’s no Wi-Fi on offer. Bring snacks and entertainment downloaded ahead of time to make your wait more comfortable. There are also no ATMs, so if you need cash for tips or small services, make sure to withdraw at your departing airport. ## Dining & shopping highlights With no restaurants, shops, or even vending machines, Lanai Airport is certainly barebones when it comes to culinary or shopping delights. You’ll want to eat and stock up on snacks before arrival. Check out options on your prior stop on Maui or Oahu to avoid being caught off guard. ## Lounges For commercial passengers, there are no lounges to speak of within the public terminal. However, those flying privately might find comfort in the small waiting lounges coordinated by Signature Aviation or Atlantic Aviation, which offer a more relaxed waiting experience. ## Insider tips - **Insider:** No food options exist at the airport.
