Aloha Jason, I've been stymied many times about how to get to/from Kona flights & Pahoa. It is quite a bit cheaper & usually a direct flight. You can: 1. advertise on Craig's list on rideshare for a ride (offer $ towards gas) from KOA to Hilo side, then bike. 2. advertise on Craig's list for a ride from KOA to a bus stop in Kona. Be advised if the bus has several bikes already it will not accept your bike & you'll have to wait for the next bus.
