What To Expect

The history of the lei dates back to the ancient Hawaiians, who wore native flowers, braided leaves, shells, feathers, stones and bones to beautify themselves. They often offered these garlands to each other and to their gods as a symbol of love and friendship.

Look for your lei greeter once you stroll past security at Kahului Airport in Maui. Enjoy a warm, Aloha welcome while a fresh strand of orchids is placed around your neck. Inhale the sweet fragrance and make the immediate switch into relaxation mode for the beginning of your trip.

For honeymooners, upgrade to the deluxe package to include two, ornate orchid leis.

Beautiful leis!

Joyce_M, Jan 2024

It was easy for us to spot our greeter because she was holding a sign with our names on it. Lei’s were delivered as promised, and she also offered us directions to the baggage claim and car rentals and took our picture! We’ve been to Hawaii many times and I just always wanted a lei greeting!

Great greeting !

Carol_P, Aug 2023

My grandkids loved the lei greeting. They were so excited about going to Hawaii for the first time and this experience made it all even more special. They were greeted on time when their flight arrived and the leis were fresh and beautiful ! Thank you

Loved it!

Stacey_R, Jul 2023

A perfect way to start vacation

Delivered as Promised

Gregory_W, Jul 2023

Our flight into OGG was delayed over 30 minutes, but happy to see our beautiful leis waiting for us upon arrival. The gentleman was very curious and even offered to take a photo of my family.

As advertised

coy_t, Jul 2023

Everything was as advertised, prompt greeting upon arrival, beautiful Leis, and great service! Thank you!

A Dream Come True

Paula_R, Jun 2023

Having my mom receive the lei was the most memorable. A dream come true for us. Orchids are my favorite. My lanai at home is filled with them. So beautiful. Thank you for making the switch for me from a candy lei to the classic lei. Totally my mistake. Much appreciated.

Thank you for the Aloha Lei Greeting!

Edward_C, May 2023

What a great surprise! I told no one in our group I had booked this. Easy to do online. Our flight was delayed 6 times, two different planes and we finally made it to Maui. They were waiting. We are here on Maui Celebrating our Anniversaries. Thank you!

Lae Greeting-a great way to start your Maui vacation

Alp_O, May 2023

The look on my wife’s face when she saw our names on the sign and the young lady placed the lae around her neck was worth every penny.

Getting her a Lei will get you laid

Wesley_W, Dec 2022

The representative was extremely pleasant and on time even took a few minutes to take pictures of my wife and I

Tess_B, Sep 2022

The beautiful smile & Presence of our greeter made my partner’s first trip to Maui extra special !! She also made sure we had landed & let us know where in the airport to meet her. Overall wonderful way to begin our adventure in Maui :->

Lei Greeting

Terra_J, Aug 2022

The lei was beautiful. The quality of the lei was amazing. We really enjoyed the lei. The greeter was talking at us like we were stupid. It would have been nice to have someone who didn’t talk at us. She was very informative and helpful though. Her people skills need some development.

Beautiful greeting !

Gordana_W, Jul 2022
