There's also a price for teens. Mixed variety of people. There's a section in front that the driver opens up for someone on a wheelchair. Clean interior with moderate air conditioning. The driver I've encountered have been cordial though always with a serous look.

Some observations on riding TheBus:…read more When entering a bus with more than half the seats filled, you might notice a natural human tendency for everyone to first take a seat all to themselves. As the bus continues to fill, another common sight is that a fairly large percentage of folks seem to be reserving the double seats for their own use, either by sitting on the aisle side of the seat, or by sitting on the inner side but seeming to block the aisle side with their belongings. Either way, this appears to signal that they're not inviting others to sit next to them. And most seasoned passengers seem to read these behaviors for what they appear to be. Some remain standing even when there are otherwise open aisle seats, making it difficult for newly boarding passengers to navigate around them, especially when those standing choose to do so while blocking the exits. Speaking of "exits," many or most buses have the type of rear doors with yellow strips on both sides, with some version of "Touch Here to Open Door." They also include an image of an open hand - seeming to mean you use your palms to push the doors open. On newer buses with the sensors still working properly, often you can use one finger to press on either yellow strip and the doors will open. But apparently because of abuse over time, for some doors you may need to use some force to cause the mechanism to work. Many ignore the yellow strips and the instructions and just attempt to push the doors open - which sometimes doesn't work at all - and then they may yell to the driver, "Back door!" My suggestion is to first wait for the green light over the exit doors to come on, then use your finger(s) to press on one of the yellow strips, but to smoothly switch to using more force, while still focusing on the yellow strips, if the mechanism has been desensitized. It should almost never be necessary to ignore the yellow strips and push on the doors themselves.

First time riding the Rail! Took my husband and boys today to ride the much anticipated HI mass…read moretransit system. It was a great experience overall! The husband works for the DOE so he knew the logistics of purchasing a Holo card prior to our adventure. Stopped by at a local 7-11 to grab adult Holo cards (kids Holo cards are NOT available at the stations and can only be purchased at Satellite City Hall or the transit centers). Luckily my boys were under the age limit, so no cards were needed for them. Adult rides are about $3 each way and factoring in our transfers, we were looking at around $7.50 per person. We drove from town to the Pearlridge station, then parked at the Park and Ride lot. About 14 stalls were available, visible and conspicuous from the main road. NO bathrooms at the stations. Trains run every 10 minutes. A friendly attendant was there to keep the premise safe and answer any questions. Trains were clean, safe, and well maintained. We were one of the few families riding the rail which made for a relaxing first experience! If they completed the line to end at Ala Moana, that would have been so convenient. If not in our lifetime, perhaps our boys will see it before their retirement! Lol

Clean, spacious, and cool! Must buy holoholo card to ride and it's reloadable. It cost $9.50 for a…read moreday pass, which is pricey for me. Fun ride and can't wait for it to be fully completed.

My first ride from the airport to Hoopili. I looked at the uber rate and decided to take the rail…read moreas far as I could and then catch uber. Saved a lot of money. Was difficult to find at first since I was at baggage claim 26 (Delta), and the security told me to "just cross the street and take the elevator to the 4th floor in parking". Which left me on the fourth floor of parking with no rail in sight and no signs directing me to the rail (this would've been helpful). I simply guessed to turn left and walk across the parking lot with luggage and finally found it. Everyone was super helpful. Rail was clean, fast and efficient. Hoopili lot was safe and clean. Will be nice when they extend to Ala Moana. An extension to Kamakana would be great too.

HART = Honolulu Authority for Rapid Transportation…read more I rode the route between Halawa / Aloha Stadium (Station 9) and Kualaka'i / East Kapolei (Station 1). The elapsed time was about 22min one way--so 44min round trip. I visit Honolulu regularly. I observed with interest as the "Skyline Rail" system was erected--and I read about all of the hiccups that have occurred along the way. Now that Section 1 of the system is operational, I wanted to ride it. I went to an ABC Store and purchased a HOLO card. The "Visitor" version of this mass transit pass is designed for tourists. An adult pass cost less than $10; it is good for one day; and it allows you unlimited access the city's light rail and public bus system for the day. I parked my car at the Park-and-Ride lot at Aloha Stadium and boarded the Skyline. It's interesting that this train does not have a driver on board. It's basically automated, with remote monitoring. There are public safety representatives patrolling each station, and riding the cars, to make sure things go smoothly. The cars have luggage racks; and racks so that people can bring their bikes/e-bikes, scooters--and surfboards. The seats are built for durability but are comfortable. The ride was smooth. The speaker system for announcements was clearly audible. The cars have air-con. This light rail is comparable to systems I rode in Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur--and those systems have been widely accepted. So why would I (a tourist) want to ride the Skyline? There is the curiosity factor of wanting to try something while it is new. But in the same way that the Las Vegas Strip is not Las Vegas, Waikiki is not Honolulu. Looking out the window while riding the Skyline allowed me a glimpse of life outside the tourist zone. And you can see a lot from the elevated train. In addition to suburbs, shopping centers and industrial parks: Between Stations One and Four, you can see a lot of agricultural activity; and the interface as new housing developments encroach on ag lands. You can see a new type of faming taking hold: solar farms. Between Station Eight and Nine, you can see portions of Pearl Harbor, the ships in port, and The Pearl Harbor National Monument in the distance. Think of this like the Waikiki Trolly Hop-On-Hop-Off Tour bus; you're just taking a different tour. I look forward to trying Sections Two and Three. P.S. As the City of Honolulu seems to be taking over the Biki bikeshare system, I suggest that they install Biki bike racks at Skyline Rail stations, where feasible.

Waipahu Transit Center is the transfer point for individuals who want to go to Waikele, Ewa Beach,…read moreor Makaha. When the center was first opened there were restrooms for both the men and women to use. With my most recent layover visit at the transit I noticed that both restroom facilities were padlocked. My guess throughout the years the restrooms were hardly cleaned by the janitors and the facilities ended up having graffiti on the walls, the smell of urine, toilets not flushed, as well as lack of toilet paper, soap, and hand towel. Some days or nights there will be homeless individuals walking around the transit area...I tend to keep my distance when I see a homeless person that smell like urine or bad underarm smell. The Waipahu Transit Center is within walking distance to Times Supermarket, food establishments, as well as a gas station that has a car wash. One thing good about this transit center is that there is a security guard around to make sure that nothing else happens.

When it first opened up, it was really nice. The restrooms were clean and whatnot.

If I can get on the bus at a different stop, I'd do that instead of come here. The star is for the security guard that is very polite.

Wow ~ I'm surprise there are no reviews for this, I do hope I'm on the right site. THE CITY(OAHU)…read moreBUS - Da Bus. I been taking Da Bus since 1997 and there have been Sooo much improvements. All bus have "working AC" they now have phones to connect directly to central office if there are any problems in operation, ie: AC not working or engine problems. If Da Bus is operable they driver will continue route and inform passengers central is sending a bus and passengers to transfer on and give the destination. The rails for standing passengers have either been lowered or have handles that can be pulled down especially for short people like me lol. The seats are much more comfortable. The newer buses also have bell buzzers on certain poles again handy for standing passengers. If you're lucky they have FREE daily Star-Advertiser while you're on Da Bus. The Best Thing That Makes Me SMILE is days when I drive , I ALWAYS let a bus go if need to get back into driving lane, Than Got Those Bus That Has The MAHALO AND SHAKA UNIT BIG UPS TO THAT! If not those drivers that acknowledge their appreciation with a wave or SHAKA! Letting a bus in front of me is No Big Deal they will be getting off lane at the next bus stop which normally isn't that far ahead . Mahalo to ALL Drivers even if some are rude, they take people get to their destination as back in the day some places had no bus service and I think till today some still don't . Mahalo also to dispatch mechanics and ALL OAHU TRANSIT DA BUS THIS REVIEW ALSO GOES OUT TO THE HANDI-VAN STAFF!
