When to fly

April brings milder temperatures and longer evenings to Tokyo, making it a practical time to arrive when spring flowers begin opening. The destination experiences hot humid summers and cold winters, so consider what kind of weather you want during your stay. School holidays across Europe and Asia affect demand, while weekday departures often carry lower fares than weekend travel.

Airlines and what to expect

Full-service carriers like Qatar Airways, Emirates, British Airways, and Turkish Airlines connect passengers through their respective hubs before reaching Japan. Juneyao Airlines and Hainan Airlines also operate on this route with connections in China. Budget options are limited since most carriers included provide meals and checked baggage as standard rather than charging extra for these services.

Arriving — Tokyo

You will land at either Tokyo Haneda or Narita International depending on your airline choice, each sitting several kilometers from the city centre. Haneda offers quicker transfers by train while Narita requires a longer journey into central Tokyo. Both airports connect to public transport networks with express trains running regularly throughout the day.

  • Ensure you have any required entry documentation for Japan before departure.
  • Book flights during shoulder seasons to avoid peak holiday pricing surges.
