KKAI is a television station that hit the air in 2004 in Honolulu, Hawaii. The license is owned by Kailua Broadcasting, LLC.

The station's city of license is Kailua and operates on ATSC digital channel 50. Originally intended to sign on as an affiliate of the UPN television network, it began airing family programming from Faith TV in addition to local programming. In 2012, the station became a full-time affiliate of the Retro Television Network

As of August 2007, KKAI programming can be seen in the Honolulu area over the air or on cable.

Digital television

Because it was granted an original construction permit after the FCC finalized the DTV allotment plan on April 21, 1997 , the station did not receive a second (companion) channel for a digital television station. On January 15, 2009, KKAI flash-cut to a digital signal on the same channel.
