About Kahului International Airport

Overview

Kahului International Airport serves as a primary aviation gateway for Maui, Hawaii, located in the central part of the island. The airport handles significant commercial passenger traffic and supports inter-island transportation, serving the populated central region of Maui near the city of Kahului.

Flying Conditions

Maui's tropical maritime climate produces generally stable flying conditions with moderate winds and minimal extreme weather variations. The airport's low elevation of 54 ft MSL and coastal location contribute to predictable meteorological patterns that are typically favorable for aviation operations.

Notable Features

The airport features two asphalt runways with substantial lengths: Runway 02/20 at 6,995 feet and Runway 05/23 at 4,990 feet. Its geographic positioning provides pilots with multiple runway options based on wind direction, with runways oriented to accommodate prevailing trade winds common in the Hawaiian island chain.

Approach Considerations

Runway selection will depend on current wind vectors, with the longer 02/20 runway offering more flexibility for larger aircraft operations. Pilots should anticipate potential crosswind conditions typical of island airports, and be prepared to utilize either runway based on current meteorological conditions at the time of arrival or departure.

Data Sources & Accuracy: Airport information sourced from OurAirports.com, a collaborative database of worldwide airport data. Weather data from official aviation weather services including NOAA Aviation Weather Center and international METAR/TAF providers.
