I just found a 1974 edition of the "Kansas City Visitor" at a garage sale (those books that are in hotel rooms).

I was very excited to see an ad for the Plaza Inn Kona Kai on the inside back cover. But rats! There aren't any photos!

Here is some of the text:

"The ultimate in Polynesian food & drink. Victor Lim, the internationally celebrated chef, has created a phenomenon ... ANOTHER Kona Kai? Of course. The Victor Lim phenomenon comes to the KCI airport...Plaza Inn International opening Spring '74"

I could be wrong, but I don't remember a Kona Kai ever being at the KCI airport. Looks like I have some more digging to do.
