Transfer to a Domestic Flight in Tokyo or Osaka

  • Naha is Okinawa's main city.
  • From Naha Airport, the hub airport of Okinawa, it takes about 30 min by monorail or car to reach the city center, "Kokusai Street".
  • Since Okinawa is located 600km from mainland Japan, it is accessible only by flight — either via direct international flights or domestic connections from Tokyo or Osaka.
