==Baltimore Traction Company==
'''Honolulu International Airport''' {{Airport codes|HNL|PHNL}} is the principal aviation gateway of the [[Honolulu County, Hawaii|City & County of Honolulu]] and the [[Hawaii|State of Hawaii]] and is identified as one of the busiest airports in the [[United States]].
;?
*3, 1899-1910


;Brooklyn, 1899-1907; 1921-1929
Opened in March 1927 as '''[[John Rodgers (naval officer, World War I)|John Rodgers]] Airport''', Honolulu International Airport is the principal hub of [[Hawaiian Airlines]] and [[Aloha Airlines]], the two largest Hawaii-based airlines. Both airlines offer flights between the various airports of the [[Hawaiian Islands]] and also serve the continental United States. Honolulu International Airport is host to major United States and international flagship commercial carriers with direct routes to [[The Americas|American]], [[Asian]], and [[Pacific Rim]] destinations.
*6, 1899-1907; 1921-1929


;Druid Hill, 1899-1920
Due to its proximity to the center of the Pacific Ocean, Honolulu has historically been a stop for many transpacific flights to and from North America. With the advent of ultra-long range aircraft, however, nearly all flights are now able to overfly Honolulu - the notable exception being flights between Australia and Canada. As such, the airport has seen a notable decrease in international passenger traffic over the years. Now that virtually all airline service to Honolulu is based on demand, there are far fewer flights to Australia, the South Pacific or southeast Asia today than 15 or 20 years ago. Almost all flights now go to Japan or the continental United States. However, Honolulu has continued to see major growth in the domestic market as major airlines have added frequencies and even non-stop links to large, yet previously unserved markets such as Phoenix, Denver and Cincinnati.

==Authority==
*4, 1907-1954
Honolulu International Airport is part of a centralized state structure governing all of the airports and seaports of Hawai<font face="Lucida Sans Unicode">&#x02BB;</font>i. The official authority of Honolulu International Airport is the [[Governor of Hawaii|Governor of Hawai<font face="Lucida Sans Unicode">&#x02BB;</font>i]]. He or she appoints the Director of the Hawai<font face="Lucida Sans Unicode">&#x02BB;</font>i State Department of Transportation who has jurisdiction over the Hawai<font face="Lucida Sans Unicode">&#x02BB;</font>i Airports Administrator.
*9, 1927-1954


;Edmondson & Bruce, 1899-1907
The Hawai<font face="Lucida Sans Unicode">&#x02BB;</font>i Airports Administrator oversees six governing bodies: Airports Operations Office, Airports Planning Office, Engineering Branch, Information Technology Office, Staff Services Office, Visitor Information Program Office. Collectively, the six bodies have authority over the four airport districts in Hawai<font face="Lucida Sans Unicode">&#x02BB;</font>i: [[Hawaii (island)|Hawai<font face="Lucida Sans Unicode">&#x02BB;</font>i District]], [[Kauai|Kaua<font face="Lucida Sans Unicode">&#x02BB;</font>i District]], [[Maui|Maui District]] and the principal [[Honolulu County, Hawaii|O<font face="Lucida Sans Unicode">&#x02BB;</font>ahu District]]. Honolulu International Airport is a subordinate of the O<font face="Lucida Sans Unicode">&#x02BB;</font>ahu District officials.

===Runways===
[[Image:HNL_reef_runway.jpg|thumbnail|The Reef Runway]]'''Honolulu International Airport''' has four major [[runway]]s. The principal runway designated 8R/26L, also known as the Reef Runway, is the world's first major runway constructed entirely offshore. Completed in 1977, the Reef Runway is a designated alternate landing site for the [[NASA|National Aeronautics and Space Administration]] [[Space Shuttle program|space shuttle]] program in association with [[Hickam Air Force Base]], which shares Honolulu International Airport's airfield operations.


;Oak Street, 1899-1947
In addition to the four paved runways, Honolulu International Airport has two designated offshore runways designated 8W/26W and 4W/22W for use by [[seaplane]]s.

*5, 1899-1910


===Terminal buildings===
;Park Terminal, 1910-1952
*1, 1910-1948
Honolulu International Airport has three terminal buildings.
*2, 1910-1948
* The '''Commuter Terminal''' serves smaller airlines which operate flights between the smaller airports in the island chain.
*3, 1910-1936
* The '''Interisland Terminal''' mainly serves the interisland flights of [[Hawaiian Airlines]] and [[Aloha Airlines]]. It is designed to handle flights of jet aircraft between the major commercial airports in the Hawaiian Islands, and is also used by Aloha for flights to the west coast of the United States.
*5, 1916-1948
* The '''Main Overseas Terminal''' serves flights to and from the United States mainland and international destinations.


;Retreat Street, 1899-1933
A fleet of [[Chance RT-52]] buses provide interterminal transportation between the ticket counters of all three terminals and between the concourses in the Interisland and Main terminals. The buses, known as "Wiki Wiki" buses (from the [[Hawaiian language|Hawaiian]] word for "fast"), are the namesake for the [[WikiWikiWeb]], and by extension, [[Wikipedia]].
*1, 1899-1910
*2, 1899-1933


==City and Suburban Railway==
===Gate Assignments===
;Irvington, 1899-1963
All boarding gates in the Main Overseas Terminal at Honolulu International are common use, shared among all airlines, and may change daily as the need arises. No gates are assigned to any airline, although several legacy US-based and/or dominant carriers that fly into and out of HNL commonly use the following gates:

;Potomac Street, 1899-1938
Most international flights on airlines not listed above arrive and depart from the Ewa Concourse (Gates 26-34), which is closest to the International Arrivals Building. On February 5, 2007, the Hawaii State Department of Transportation announced a plan to construct a $10 million enclosed people-mover system to connect the third floor of the Ewa Concourse directly to the International Arrivals Building and the rest of the airport. Construction is to begin during Summer 2007 and last approximately 18 months.<ref name="intl-flights">{{cite news| url=http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2007/Feb/04/ln/FP702040367.html | title=Airport to get cooler, easier with walkway | work=[[The Honolulu Advertiser]] | first=Mike | last=Leidemann | date=[[2007-02-04]] | accessdate=2007-02-07}}</ref>

===Other===
The entire terminal complex features twenty-four hour medical services, restaurants, shopping centers and a business center with conference rooms for private use. Passengers have the option of using various short-term and long-term parking structures on the grounds of Honolulu International Airport.

Main roads leading to the Honolulu International Airport are Nimitz Highway and the Queen Liliuokalani Freeway of [[Interstate H-1]].

==Future plans==
[[Image:HNL Modernization.PNG|right|thumb|250px|The new terminal expansions (red) on Honolulu International Airport depicted as part of the $2.3 billion modernization program of the airport in 12 years.]]

On [[March 24]], [[2006]], [[Hawaii Governor]] [[Linda Lingle]] unveiled a $2.3 billion modernization program for Honolulu International Airport over a 12-year period. The plan involves implementing short-term projects within the first five years to improve passenger service and increase security and operational efficiencies. These include upgrades to the passenger terminals, ticket counters, baggage screening operations, runways and airport aprons, airport infrastructure such as air conditioning, restroom facilities, elevators, escalators, electrical systems, drains and sprinkler systems.

In addition, the plan incorporates improvements to comply with federal regulations on storm water systems, runway safety, perimeter security and crash fire safety. Long-term improvement projects include increasing the airports’ capacity and enhancing convenience and efficiency. These projects include constructing additional gates, ramp space and passenger loading bridges, increasing holding room capacity, and expanding public parking facilities.

==Disasters==
There have been four major air traffic incidents that caused air traffic controllers and federal emergency officials at Honolulu International Airport to be placed on emergency alert. All four were disasters that resulted in fatalities, and one involved a global terrorist plot that some arguably consider a precursor to the [[September 11, 2001 Attacks|September 11, 2001]] attacks on the United States.

===Pan Am, 1982===
{{main|Pan Am Flight 830}}
On [[August 11]], [[1982]], a bomb exploded aboard [[Pan American World Airways]] Flight 830, as it was preparing to approach Honolulu International Airport from [[Tokyo]], [[Japan]]. One teenager was killed and 15 others were injured. The aircraft, however was not disintegrated and made a safe emergency landing in Honolulu.

===Aloha Airlines, 1988===
[[Image:alohaairlinesdisaster.jpg|thumb|200px|[[Aloha Airlines Flight 243]] after landing at Kahului Airport, 1988.]]
{{main|Aloha Airlines Flight 243}}
On [[April 28]], [[1988]], [[Aloha Airlines]] Flight 243, flying from Hilo to Honolulu International Airport experienced a rapid decompression. An 18 feet (5 m) section of the fuselage roof and sides were torn from the airplane, due to metal fatigue. Out of the 89 passengers and 6 crew members, the only fatality was a flight attendant blown out of the airplane. Several passengers sustained life-threatening injuries. The aircraft diverted to [[Kahului Airport]] with slight difficulty.

===United Airlines, 1989===
[[Image:unitedairlinesdisasterhonolulu.jpg|thumb|200px|[[United Airlines Flight 811]], the day after it made an emergency landing in Honolulu, 1989.]]
{{main|United Airlines Flight 811}}
On [[February 24]], [[1989]], [[United Airlines]] Flight 811, a [[Boeing 747]] carrying 3 flight crew, 15 cabin crew and 337 passengers from [[Los Angeles]], [[California]] to [[Sydney]], [[Australia]], stopping in [[Auckland]], [[New Zealand]] and [[Honolulu]] suffered [[explosive decompression]] when a [[cargo]] door separated from the aircraft after takeoff from the Reef Runway. Nine passengers were swept from the aircraft and lost at sea. The plane returned to Honolulu.

===Operation Bojinka, 1995===
{{main|Oplan Bojinka}}
In 1995, United States and [[Philippines]] intelligence authorities discovered an [[al-Qaeda]] terrorism plot called "Operation Bojinka" after a fire on an American carrier at [[Ninoy Aquino International Airport]] in [[Manila]]. Related to an assassination attempt on [[Pope John Paul II]], the first phase of Operation Bojinka included the planned explosion of several American carriers over the [[Pacific Ocean]] upon takeoff from or en route to Honolulu International Airport on [[January 21]] of that year.

Here I look at the streetcar routes and the divisions they were assigned to, mainly to see for how long the structure of the old companies remained. As always, information is from [1].
