Tokyo Haneda Airport

Tokyo Haneda is an excellent airport to hang out in a long layover. There are many shops and things to do in the airport. All terminals are welcoming and great. Security and immigration etc. are a breeze in all terminals. It is always a pleasure traveling through this airport every time.

Arrived at Haneda Airport for the first time after my transpacific flight on Air Canada from Toronto Pearson Int'l Airport. The airport was bright and airy with lots of room to relax. It felt more spacious than Narita overall. Customs and immigration process was quick and pain free. Since I had a four hour stop over before my connecting ANA flight to Kimpo airport in Seoul, Korea, I decided to have some relaxing sushi lunch at Terminal 2. There is a nice airport shuttle bus that buses passengers between different terminals. Overall had an enjoyable stopover at the airport and would not mind stopping by here for a nice sushi meals sometime in the future again.

Tokyo Haneda has improved dramatically since I first started using it (about 30 years ago). The only problem is that there are now three terminals, so transferring from domestic to international flights takes more time. The terminals are also quite large, so walking from gate to gate also takes some time. Nevertheless, the fact that there are international flights has made this airport far preferable to Tokyo Narita, which suffers by being too far from Tokyo and being badly served by domestic connecting flights. Transferring from Haneda to Narita is a real pain, only slightly alleviated by the efficient limousine bus service connecting the two airports. I often use Terminal 2, for ANA flights, but I have occasionally used Terminal 1, which is the JAL terminal and is just as good. The service offered by the airlines for passengers transferring between the international and domestic terminals is especially good, with a dedicated airline bus service. Using this service to transfer to the domestic terminals removes the need for a second security check.

I flew from Paris to Tokyo Haneda. The experience was very different from any other airport I've been to. They say that Japan is 20 years ahead of the rest of the world - technology wise. I completely agree. As soon as we disembarked from the aircraft, I went to the toilet/restroom. I was amazed to experience a star-of-the-art toilet bowl - it can talk, can sing, and can clean you. A toilet bowl of many talents. Moreover, the airport was very clean and orderly. The staff were very friendly too. I had to by a wi-fi access for my entire trip and the lady who assisted me tried her best to converse in English. She struggled but hey, that was a 100% for the effort.

It was here I lost my passport. Understandably, I was very worried having such an important document go missing. I asked JAL agents and airport staff to help me find it even though it was busy which they did. An hour later, a kind soul returned it to the lost and found. Everyone at Haneda was very friendly even though they don't speak English fluently. I spent quite a bit of time here and even had to sleep here overnight. Fortunately, there's plenty of seating to rest on. They have showers. I paid ~1300 yen for a 30 min shower which entitled me to a free drink coupon at a next door vendor. This was welcome refuge given that I had been on a non-stop double digit international flight. The airport is much closer to the city than Narita which made it easier for my ride to pick me up. The only thing I took issue with was the wifi. The signal was not strong and faded in and out which made it hard to get online. All in all, an excellent airport.

Very impressed with Tokyo Haneda. The service is good. The staff are nice and polite. A lot of souvenirs available. The toilet is clean and facilities high tech. They have free WiFi and the speed is fast. However, there were some long queues.

It's a beautiful airport that functions poorly. Arrived late at night kn 1-24 and waited 2 hours to clear customs. Once clear there was limited to no good options and extremely limited public transportation after 9pm. So this airport runs on late night flight schedules, however they will not provide decent food or transportation options in the late hours and half of the immigration windows were closed with over 1000 people in line. The plus side is the wonderful Hotel in the Intl terminal. Small rooms but very nice.

I arrived in Haneda airport at 6.30. I was very tired and it was my second time in this airport. After getting off the plane it was very easy to find our way. Every 30m there were toilets which were very clean. The customs was very quick. When you exit the arrivals area you are near to the bank, bus or train counter and the airport exit is very close. I recommend this airport instead of Narita if you want go in Tokyo directly. It's closer than Narita and it cheaper.

I have traveled through here all my life during each of my summers and it is a great airport to travel through. This year, I had multiple domestic flights and an international flight this summer. The terminals provide great comfort in my opinion, and have wonderful observation decks at each terminal. There are a good number of shops, but the thing that stands out about Haneda in what they are selling is the selection of souvenir food items that change from time to time. The food items come from around the country (mainly Tokyo, like the famous Tokyo Banana), and are delicious. The International terminal was quite impressive in the departure lobby. Though I have visited there before just out of curiosity, the Edo-Machi (Edo Town) and Tokyo Pop town offer a nice selection of restaurants and shops, which I still feel is great. The Nihon-Bashi (Nihon Bridge) is a nice touch to the Edo atmosphere, and is fun to walk on. Domestic Terminals at Haneda outshine US airports by a mile, as there are many shops, and facilities are pristine. Staff are excellent everywhere, and buses are excellent. Overall if you get the chance to travel to Tokyo, I recommend using Haneda, as it is truly a five star airport.

Easy access to/from HND. Travellers always opt for HND rather than NRT due to its closer distance to the heart of Tokyo. Staff at bus ticket counter barely speak English, travellers have to aware of this. Airport itself is clean but relatively a medium size international airport. Nothing much to do on the landside of the terminal, 2 big duty free shops in the restricted area, limited food and beverages options but good enough.
