Kumamoto Airport (KMJ) serves as the primary gateway to Kumamoto Prefecture and typically functions as a regional domestic hub with a sprinkling of international charter and seasonal services. It’s commonly used by full-service carriers like Japan Airlines and All Nippon Airways alongside low-cost operators on domestic routes, so fares can range from budget-friendly to mid-tier depending on carrier and timing. The airport lies about 40–50 minutes by road from Kumamoto city center (roughly 40 km); options include the efficient airport limousine bus (around 40–55 minutes, modest fare) and taxis or rental cars (shorter in good traffic but costlier). Pros: straightforward layout, reliable ground transport and decent domestic connections. Cons: fewer direct long-haul flights and occasional congestion during peak holiday periods.
Tokyo is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Haneda (Tokyo International) is typically the quieter, closer option and functions as the city’s main domestic hub while also handling increasing international traffic, often favored by full-service carriers; it sits about 14 km from central Tokyo, with monorail or train links taking roughly 15–30 minutes (fares commonly range from low single digits to around ¥700). Narita is usually the international gateway for long-haul and low-cost carriers, located around 60 km east of the city; express trains or airport buses normally take 55–90 minutes to central Tokyo with fares that can be moderate to higher than Haneda’s. Haneda’s advantage is convenience and shorter transfer times, whereas Narita can be more budget-friendly for some carriers but involves longer ground transfers; both offer taxis and dedicated airport limousine services for passengers seeking direct routes.
