Tokyo is served mainly by two airports with distinct roles. Narita International (NRT), about 60–70 km east of central Tokyo, is typically the primary international gateway for long-haul and legacy carriers; travel to the city center can take 60–90 minutes by Narita Express or similar rapid trains (fares commonly in the mid-range for Japan’s rail fares) and around 60–120 minutes by airport limousine bus depending on traffic. Haneda Airport (HND), much closer at roughly 15–20 km south of downtown, functions as a major domestic hub that has grown into an international gateway for many short- and medium-haul routes and low-cost carriers. Haneda is usually quicker and cheaper to reach — 15–30 minutes by monorail or train with modest fares, or 30–60 minutes by taxi at higher cost — making it convenient for business and short-stay travelers. Pros: Narita offers more long-haul options and cargo facilities; Haneda provides greater proximity and shorter transfer times. Cons: Narita can be slower and feel more removed; Haneda can be busier and subject to limited late-night international connections.

Fly nonstop from Tokyo to Johannesburg for the quickest, most convenient way to bridge Asia and Africa — less hassle, fewer delays, and more time to enjoy your destination. While connecting flights can sometimes be cheaper, choosing a direct route saves valuable travel time and delivers a more comfortable, straightforward journey worth the investment.

Johannesburg is served mainly by O.R. Tambo International (JNB), the region’s primary international hub, and by the smaller Lanseria (HLA), which often handles low-cost and regional carriers. O.R. Tambo is typically used by full-service international airlines and major African carriers, with Lanseria favored by budget operators and some charter services. O.R. Tambo sits about 22 km east of central Johannesburg — expect 25–45 minutes by Gautrain plus a short shuttle or 30–60 minutes by taxi or rideshare depending on traffic, with fares varying by service; Gautrain fares are usually modest while taxis/rideshares can be more variable. Lanseria lies roughly 40 km northwest and can be 40–70 minutes away by car or shuttle. O.R. Tambo offers wide amenities and convenient international connections but can be busy at peak times; Lanseria can be quieter and cheaper but has fewer facilities and fewer international routes.
