Cheap Flights from Tokyo to Helsinki Starting at $381

Helsinki Airport (HEL) serves as Finland’s primary international gateway and a regional connecting hub, handling both full-service carriers like Finnair and a mix of European low-cost airlines. It is located roughly 17 km north of Helsinki city centre, with travel times typically around 25–40 minutes by train or 30–45 minutes by car depending on traffic. The frequent I and P trains are a convenient option, usually costing in the low single-digit euros; buses and taxis offer door-to-door journeys at higher fares. Pros include a compact terminal layout and reliable public transport links; downsides can be occasional congestion at peak times and slightly higher on-site prices than smaller regional airports.

Tokyo is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Narita (NRT), located about 60 km east of central Tokyo, functions as the principal international gateway and typically handles long-haul and many full-service carriers; it can be seen as the larger, more global hub but often involves longer transfer times to the city. Access options include the Narita Express (around 60–90 minutes, premium fares), the faster but variable-cost Keisei Skyliner (about 40–50 minutes), and highway buses or taxis (roughly 60–120 minutes depending on traffic, with higher taxi costs). Pros: extensive international connections and full-service amenities; cons: farther from downtown and transfer times can be long. Haneda (HND), situated roughly 14 km south of central Tokyo, is typically favored for domestic flights and an increasing number of international services, often with shorter city transfers and more budget-friendly ground transport. It’s commonly served by both full-service and low-cost carriers and can be perceived as more convenient for business and short stays. Ground links include the Tokyo Monorail (about 15–20 minutes to Hamamatsucho), Keikyu Line trains (15–25 minutes), and taxis or buses (20–40 minutes depending on destination and traffic), with fares ranging from modest commuter rates to higher taxi fees. Pros: proximity to central Tokyo and quicker transfers; cons: sometimes pricier flights on peak routes and fewer late-night international options compared with larger hubs.
