Do you have any tips for my flight to Osaka?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Osaka could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Osaka?
It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Osaka, here you come:

  • Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.

Flights to Osaka

Flying to Osaka brings you into Kansai International Airport (KIX) about twenty miles southwest of Osaka city. Regular direct flights connect Kansai International Airport with more than 60 destinations worldwide. If you’re taking a domestic flight to Osaka from other cities around Japan, there are routes into Kansai International Airport or Itami Airport, a little confusingly sometimes known as Osaka International Airport, which is located about ten miles to the north of the city.

You can fly to Kansai International Airport all year round from major UK airports, with a stop at one of a handful of cities including Paris, Amsterdam, Helsinki, Frankfurt or Istanbul. Alternatively, you may find that booking a flight to Tokyo or Hong Kong and then catching a connecting flight to Osaka could be a good option. If you choose to fly into Tokyo, you could make the connection to Osaka by train instead of plane. The high-speed Shinkansen – or bullet train as it is sometimes known – takes 2.5 hours to get from Tokyo to Shin-Osaka station in the north of Osaka city.

Transport to and from Your Osaka Flight

Public transport is a convenient and affordable choice for travelling into Osaka from both nearby airports. At Kansai International Airport, the railway station connects directly to the second floor of Terminal 1, while buses depart from the first floor. There’s a wide variety of transport options to suit different budgets, with prices scaling up for faster journey times and reserved tickets. The quickest trains can get you to Namba station in just over half an hour. Airport Limousine Buses can take you directly to Namba in 45 minutes and Osaka station in 60 minutes. If you choose to rent a car, Osaka is about 50 minutes’ drive from the airport.

Itami Airport is about 30 minutes by train from Umeda station, which is one of the city centre’s main hubs and a gateway to Osaka’s subway system. From Osaka Airport station, take the monorail one stop to Hotarugaike station, then it’s about 20 minutes south on the mainline Hankyu Takarazuka line to Umeda. You can also catch the bus from Itami Airport to major destinations around the city including Osaka/Umeda station, Shin-Osaka station and Namba station. The bus takes about 25 minutes in each case.

Why Fly to Osaka?

Osaka is a large laid-back city full of opportunities for shopping, sightseeing, eating out and having fun. Whether you’re visiting for a business trip or to explore the area on holiday, you’ll find a side of Osaka to suit you. It’s home to one of Japan’s top tourist attractions – Universal Studios Japan – where you can step into the magical world of the movies. You can also experience traditional Japanese culture at the city’s theatres or on a visit to a tranquil temple or shrine. Visit at the end of July to see Osaka’s biggest festival, Tenjin Matsuri, which dates back over 1,000 years. And, whenever you fly to Osaka, don’t forget to sample some delicious dishes in this city known as the food capital of Japan.
