“Also effective Oct. 16, all three rideshare pickup locations at HNL will relocate from the second floor to the first floor. At Terminal 1, the rideshare pickup area will be located curbside, mauka of Baggage Claim 6. At Terminal 2, two rideshare pickup areas will be relocated to the ground-level median across from Baggage Claims 19/20 and 31.”

Very nice. No longer will I have to exit the terminal at the departures level or move up to departures after baggage claim. That's how it should've been from the start!
