I am proud to announce the completion of this Hawaiian island paradise, coming in 24.3. This project, started back in October 2021 by @DeerCrusher, has faced numerous challenges, especially the unique terminal roof design. It was later handed on to @RedWolf who was able complete airport-wide updates. Finally I took over in February this year to give it a facelift and finished it off. Hope you like my solution to the roof design and enjoy the airport!

Being served by Alaska, Southwest and United’s 737MAX8, this is also a great destination after the max rework!

Kona is finally becoming a reality for IF! What an excitement, and what a cool terminal!

My first route is definetly gonna be SEA-KOA. I’ve done that route IRL a couple times, one time there was this lady looking at my screen for the entire flight… don’t you just hate those people?

Anyways, thanks @BLee for making this possible. Trust me you guys, it would’ve looked horrible if @BLee didn’t step in… he took the terminal and buildings and absolutely made it into a masterpiece I never could’ve done.

I’m so excited that Kona is finally getting 3D! It’s such a unique airport for me since it was my first experience in an open-air style airport.

Ooh it actually looks like it might be gone 💀. It’s not seasonal, it should be running year-round, but I don’t see any signs it even existed. I know it did last year though…
