Lelepaua station (also known as Daniel K. Inouye International Airport station) is an under-construction Skyline station along Ala Auana Street serving the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi. It is being built as part of the second phase of the Skyline route, scheduled to open in Summer 2025.
The Hawaiian Station Name Working Group proposed Hawaiian names for the twelve rail stations on the eastern end of the rail system (stations in the Airport and City Center segments) in April 2019.[1][2] The name of this station, Lelepaua, means the choice mother of pearl inside the pāua bivalve and refers to a large fishpond and salt production area built by Kaʻihikapu Manuia.[3]
