HMSHost Brings 3 New Dining Options To Hawaii Airports
Two Hawaiian airports have some new dining options, thanks to recent openings by HMSHost Corp. and the Hawaii Department of Transportation.
Honolulu International (HNL) and Kahului (OGG) are now offering fare from Pinkberry, California Pizza Kitchen and Burger King.
“These restaurants are a great addition to our airports – brands that will not only provide more dining selection for our travelers, but enhance their overall visit,” says Brennon Morioka, director of the state’s Department of Transportation. “Our airports provide the first and last impression of our state, and we are proud to partner with HMSHost to make it a memorable and enjoyable one.”
Honolulu is the second and Maui the third of Pinkberry’s airport locations. It offers distinctive yogurt flavors, along with daily fresh fruit and toppings.
At California Pizza Kitchen, guests can find pizza, salad, soup and sandwiches on the full-service restaurant menu. These locations will also offer full breakfast menus, including breakfast pizzas.
Burger King brings its flame-broiled burgers, chicken and fish sandwiches, as well as breakfast croissants.
“Our goal is to satisfy every traveler preference with the diverse restaurant brands we’ve brought to Honolulu and Maui in recent years,” says Anthony Alessi, vice president of business development for HMSHost. “Pinkberry, CPK and Burger King are excellent additions to our lineup of dynamic restaurants and all together, are making the day better for Hawaii travelers.”
