- I know there are a to of videos about traveling in Japan, but I haven't seen any that touch on this specific circumstance. I hope you found my tips helpful, and let me know if you have any layover tips!

You rock. Thank you very much. I have an eleven hour layover in Haneda in about 25 days, so this information is gold.
same here!
This is a unique travel video, thanks! I'd love to see what you bought in Japan.
I was going to make a haul video but the selection at the stores I went to were honestly quite disappointing. I only got a pair of shoes and a necklace 🥲.
Amazing! Thank you! We have an 8 hour layover in Haneda from 5pm to like 1am - any suggestions on what would be the must-see in our sort-of short stay?
Hi! I have 8-hr Layover with Airport Change from NRT to HND- can i do anything? Any suggestion what to see for a quick tour. Thanks!
Which train did you take from Narita airport to Tokyo
Thank you very much for the video. My husband and I will have an approximately 10-hour layover in September. We will be landing at Haneda Airport at 2:30 PM, and our flight to Bangkok is scheduled to depart at 1:30 AM. Do you think I will have enough time to explore Tokyo city? How much time will I have? Thank you.
I have a 14-hour layover in Tokyo at HND, I have connecting flights but same air service I shouldn't have to get my checked luggage correct so I can use the lockers for my carry-on
Yup that's correct! Always good to double check with the airline, but 99% of the time, your check-in luggage will be forwarded for you. I think there are also big lockers if you do need to hold on to your large luggage.
Hi this video is very informative. We have a trip coming and we have a 20hrs lay over in haneda. We are a US, my question is do we need an arrival visa just like what you mentioned here in the video? What can you recommend to do during those hours we have? I’m sure we have a plenty of time
Thanks for watching! US Citizens do not need a visa. 20 hours is definitely plenty of time! From what time to what time will you be there? And what interests you(sightseeing, shopping, eating, etc.)? This will help me provide recs!

I have a layover coming up in Narita just 3 hours and was hoping I could get out and explore but looks like that's not possible. I shall be back for you Japan :(
It always sucks when it's "so close yet so far" :'). At least the airport still has good snacks!!
@@frillycookie I will make the best of my small stay. Atleast I can get a little acquainted with the area in case I come through Narita again but learned to be better off at the other airport. Thanks!
How should we plan or anticipate mobile service? Been to Tokyo before we rented a pocket wifi as a group. Do you think it is worth a 12 hour layover and being a solo traveler.
Hey! Sorry I am just seeing this. I think the value of renting a pocket wifi would depend on how much you want to do and how good you are at navigating. I think it would generally be good for peace of mind, but you can definitely get from the airport to the city without wifi. Just do your research beforehand!
I will have a 12 hour layover this coming October in Haneda airport. I wanna know how's the process if I will shop outside (like in Tokyo) and enter again inside the airport, what will be the procedure in the immigration? Btw, I'm planning to do also the things you did which leaving the empty carry-on luggage. Hope you can notice my question. Thanks!
Sorry I'm just now seeing this! Immigration won't happen till you get to your destination country, so I think the rules will depend on them rather than Japan. But I think it's pretty standard.
Hey I have a 13 hours layover in japan haneda airport from 6:45-19:45 so I believe I have plenty of time to see tokyo about 6-7 hours almost. Can you please tell me how long does the security takes?. If my flight is at 19:35 so till what time I should be at the airport?
I think to be safe, be at the airport by 18:00
@@frillycookie is the security and all stuff will be done in just 1.3 hours??
@@vishalsingh-yx9ks Haneda is a smaller airport, so it won't be as bad as Narita. That being said, you can arrive at 17:30 to give yourself extra time if that's more comfortable for you!
Hi do you still need Covid card to get out of Narita? I have an 11 hour layover and want to explore Tokyo. Thanks
I think they lifted that restriction!
Hi! I have a layover for 15 hours- How would I declare that for online immigration/customs? A month later, I have another layover that gets me to transfer from Narita to Haneda for 7 hours- how would I also declare that for online immigration/customs since it doesn’t have the option of “layover” or “transfer”
Sorry I am just now seeing this! Unfortunately I'm not really sure on this answer and I don't want to provide you with incorrect information. I think we just did short term visit. It would be more of an issue if your citizenship requires a visa.
Hi I have a 16 hr layover at haneda airport in August. I want to know about the lounge access, that if it can be accessed by economy class passengers.?
Wow 16 hrs is awesome! That’s plenty of time to go around Tokyo. Lounge access will depend on how you are getting the benefit. Economy passengers do not have access unless you have a credit card that gives you access.
@@frillycookie Are there any sleeping rooms available in the airport?
@@akshithanda7350 it looks like there is a capsule hotel in Terminal 1! airportssleepingguide.com/sleeping-in-haneda-airport/
@@frillycookie Thank you so much! 😌
@@akshithanda7350 Hotel Villa Fontaine is connected to Terminal 3 arrivals area but you have to go through immigration. I just did a 17-hour layover last week. I booked a hotel in Shinjuku and explored the area. Had a great time and had a good night's sleep too! :) Plus the airport limousine bus from Shinjuku drops you off at Terminal 3 departures entrance.
Hello I have 8 hour layover in Japan in Narita, 6am coming this feb any tips? I’m an anime fan I would like to purchase anime stuff if possible.
Ooof 8 hrs is pretty tight, and most places probably don't open till 10 at least. Akihabara is the main anime hub of Tokyo I think.
