Gas station hours on Christmas day

Hi,

We will be flying back home on Christmas day. I was wondering which gas stations are open on Christmas day around 3:00 pm to fill up the tank before I return my rental car.

Thanks.

On Christmas Day in Maui, most businesses, including gas stations, may have reduced hours, but some are still open to accommodate travelers. It's good to plan ahead to ensure you can fill up before returning your rental car.

Generally, larger gas station chains tend to be open, even on holidays, but hours may vary. Here are a few recommendations for gas stations that are likely to be open around 3:00 pm on Christmas Day:

  • Chevron: Many Chevron stations across Maui are open 24 hours a day, including Christmas Day. You can check the location near your rental car return for specific hours.
  • Shell: Some Shell stations in tourist areas like Lahaina and Kihei may remain open for essential services, though hours can be reduced. It’s recommended to check online for specific locations.
  • Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar Co. (HC&S): This station may also have 24-hour service, depending on the location. Look for stations in busy areas.
  • Costco (Kahului): While Costco generally closes on holidays, their gas station may also have reduced hours or remain open for essential services. If you're near the Kahului Costco, it's worth checking.

It’s a good idea to confirm the hours for the gas station closest to your rental car return, as many rental agencies will also provide fuel information at pick-up. If you're flying out of Kahului Airport (OGG), there are multiple gas stations in the vicinity, including 24-hour options.

Make sure to fill up with enough time to return the car and get to the airport with plenty of time before your flight. Safe travels and Merry Christmas!
