The Diamond Head cell phone waiting lot located along Aolele Street between the Delta Airlines and United Airlines cargo facilities at Honolulu International Airport will be temporarily closed today and tomorrow for cleaning and sealcoating of the parking lot area, the State Department of Transportation announced.

The public is advised to use the Ewa cell phone waiting area located near the airport post office at the intersection of Nimitz Highway and Aolele Street on Service Road A.

The Ewa cell phone waiting area is also open daily from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m.

The cell phone waiting areas are an option for drivers picking up arriving passengers by eliminating the need for motorists to drive in loops around the airport waiting for arriving passengers to exit baggage claim areas.

It also reduces traffic congestion fronting the baggage claim area.

Maps of the cell phone waiting areas are available on the Honolulu International Airport's website at www.hawaii.gov/dot/airports/hnl.
