Public Bus Service - Oahu Transportation Services offers “The Bus” public bus transportation routes to all parts of Oahu. For information on routes, times and fares please call (808) 848-5555 or visit the web site at www.thebus.org. (From a cursory glance at the Web site it looks as if the 19, 20 and 42 bus lines go from the airport to the Kalia Rd + Paoa Pl Stop (ID: 886), which is just outside the Hilton Hawaiian Village property, and the trip looks to take about an hour.) NOTE: From “The Bus” website: “Baggage that can be stored under a passenger's seat or on a passenger's lap, that will not protrude to another seat or otherwise interfere with other passengers, will be admitted at no charge.” The maximum size is 22“x14”x9“ (i.e., carry-on size). http://www.thebus.org/howtoride/RulesReg.asp?l=
