Narita Airport is one of Tokyo’s two major international airports, but unfortunately, it’s located over an hour from the center of the city. That means once you land, you need to figure out how to get into the city. It’s not necessarily complicated, but it does require some planning ahead.
About 37 miles east of central Tokyo, Narita Airport serves as a hub for several international airlines, including Japan Airlines and All Nippon Airways. It handles a large volume of international and domestic flights, and houses a range of restaurants, shops, and lounges. If you’re traveling to Tokyo, there’s a good chance you’ll be coming through this airport.
