Overview
Depart
On Sunday you will depart early HNL – MAJ, and arrive in the Marshalls on Monday 1035AM (the date change is because of the dateline). The most important thing is to get to the Honolulu airport on time! United closes the checkin about an hour before and will not let you in. We suggest getting there at 5AM. You’ll be greeted by Indies Trader staff, and board the internal Air Marshall Islands flight to the outer atoll. You’ll be greeted again by staff on the coral runway and escorted to the boat, which will take you to the Island.
Return
On your return, you will checkout Monday morning, and have a chance to surf, before boating over to the runway. You will board the A.M.I. flight and arrive in Majuro, after a layover at the airport or possibly driving into town for lunch you will fly to Honolulu and arrive 2AM early Monday morning.
