The Hawaiʻi Department of Transportation (HDOT) has announced the availability of security checkpoint status and estimated wait times on electronic displays in Terminal 1 (formerly known as the Interisland Terminal) of the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL) starting Friday, June 13.
The wait times on the displays are generated using Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology. Checkpoint status displays will be added to Terminal 2 (formerly known as the Overseas Terminal) following the completion of the Checkpoint 3 Improvements, which include new air conditioning, ceiling renovation and lighting. The completion of the Terminal 2, Checkpoint 3 improvements, is expected in late 2026 due to coordination needed to maintain checkpoint operations during construction.
Total cost of the LiDAR and communications infrastructure to the displays for the Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 checkpoints is $6 million.
