Island Air had some really good deals for travel between Honolulu and Lanai.  This regional carrier serves airports on all major Hawaiian Islands.  They fly smaller turboprop Dash 8 airplanes that fly at lower altitudes than jets do.  Flying lower provides passengers with spectacular views of Hawaii's natural beauty, pristine coastlines and majestic mountains.  I like the fact that Island Air is in a small terminal next to the main airport terminal in Honolulu.  The terminal has a large parking lot directly in front of the check in and baggage claim areas.  This makes getting in and out very fast and easy.  You can check your bags and clear security here in just a few minutes.  Boarding is also a breeze.  With just 37 seats, the plane boards faster than the larger jets and you are in the air without any hassles.  Once aboard you are greeted by a flight attendant who explains emergency procedures and also provides complimentary Maui grown coffee or water.  The Dash 8 has a pilot and co-pilot on board.  Our trip to Lanai was less than 20 minutes.  The flight was smooth and quiet.  Once on Lanai we walked down the steps and had our baggage is less than five minutes.
