Gas prices hovered at or near record levels in Hawaii over the past week, with the average regular unleaded gas price for Hawaii at $5.24, equal to the all-time record price set on Saturday, according to the AAA Hawaii Weekend Gas Watch.

Kahului’s average gas price continues to be the second highest in the state at $5.33, which is one cent higher than last week, 21 cents higher than last month and $1.56 higher than a year ago, according to the report released Thursday.

Lihue led the state with an average price of $5.46, followed by Hilo at $5.30 and Honolulu at $5.15.

“Oil prices continue to drop, but local drivers have yet to see that benefit at the pump,” said Liane Sumida, AAA Hawaii general manager.

Hawaii is more than a dollar over the average national price, which is $4.07, down eight cents from a week ago.
