Tokyo is served mainly by two airports with distinct roles. Narita International (NRT), located about 60 km east of central Tokyo, is typically the primary long‑haul international gateway and hosts many full‑service carriers and some low‑cost airlines; journeys to central Tokyo usually take 55–80 minutes by Narita Express or 60–90 minutes by airport limousine bus, with fares generally in the mid‑range for airport transfers. Haneda (HND), much closer at roughly 15 km south of downtown, functions as a major international and domestic hub with a strong presence of full‑service Japanese carriers and growing low‑cost service; travel times to the city center are commonly 15–30 minutes by monorail or train and can be 20–60 minutes by taxi depending on traffic, with fares typically lower than from Narita. Pros: Haneda is usually quicker and more convenient for central Tokyo, while Narita often offers broader long‑haul connectivity and sometimes lower fares on international routes. Cons: Narita’s distance can add transfer time and cost, whereas Haneda can be busier and occasionally pricier for some international services.

Fly nonstop from Tokyo to San Francisco for the quickest, most convenient way to bridge Asia and the Bay Area — less time in transit, no layovers, and a smoother door-to-door experience. While connecting options can sometimes be cheaper, choosing a direct flight saves hours and reduces travel stress, making it ideal for business trips or maximizing your time exploring the city.

San Francisco International Airport (SFO) serves as the Bay Area’s primary international and domestic gateway, typically functioning as a major hub for full-service carriers and a focus city for several international airlines. Flights can be competitively priced but often skew higher than nearby secondary airports for peak routes. SFO sits about 13 miles (20 km) south of downtown San Francisco; travelers usually reach the city via BART (rapid transit) in roughly 30–45 minutes for a moderate fare, by airport shuttle or taxi in 25–40 minutes with variable costs, or by app-based car services and rental cars. Pros: comprehensive amenities, many direct long-haul connections and reliable public transit. Cons: can be busy at peak times, with sometimes longer security and transfer walks.

The minimum one-way ticket price from Tokyo to San Francisco is $272 (February 2026), while the maximum is $696 (January 2026). On average, a ticket costs $396–$432.
