Your guide to booking Busan to Osaka Kansai Intl Airport flights

  • If your dates can be flexible, aim for a Tuesday departure instead of Friday. On this route, Tuesday flights average $153 - about $57 less than Friday (27% savings) based on the last 12 months.
  • For the best chance at a low fare, aim to book around 5 weeks before you fly. On this route, that window historically saves about 10% versus last-minute pricing (KAYAK booking data, last 12 months).
  • If you can choose when to travel, plan your Busan to Osaka Kansai Intl Airport trip for September. Fares historically average $140 round-trip in that month - typically $160 less than the most expensive month, which is February (based on the last 12 months).
  • If arriving on time is high on your priority list, Eastar Jet is the strongest pick on this route. 98% of Eastar Jet flights from Busan to Osaka Kansai Intl Airport arrived on time in the past 3 months, slightly above the route's average on-time arrival rate of 94%. When flights on this route do arrive late, the average delay is 1 hour 27 minutes, so choosing a carrier with strong on-time performance can make a difference on tight schedules.
  • Busan, South Korea is served by Gimhae International Airport (PUS), a hub for Korean Air, Air Busan, Asiana Airlines, and Yeongnam Air. Aside from Busan, this airport also serves nearby Changwon, Yangsan, and Ulsan.
  • Osaka, Japan is served by three airports: Kansai International Airport (KIX), Itami Airport (ITM), and Kobe Airport (UKB). KIX is a hub for Peach Aviation, Japan Airlines, and ANA, while ITM is a hub for Japan Airlines, ANA, and Ibex Airlines. UKB is a hub for Skymark Airlines and Fuji Dream Airlines.
  • If you want to book the cheapest flights from Busan to Osaka, your flight will likely have one layover and be operated by multiple low-cost carriers, such as Jeju Air and Peach. This also means that these flights will require a self-transfer, so be sure to leave ample time.
  • If you have a lot of luggage to take with you to Osaka from Busan, consider upgrading your ticket class from economy to business or first class. This is because, especially aboard low-cost carriers like Peach, you may have to pay for checked luggage, or even just to bring an extra carry-on bag. If you upgrade your ticket class, free checked luggage is typically included.
  • If you will depart early in the morning from Busan, consider booking a hotel near the airport for a good night’s rest. The Hotel Airport and the Air Sky Hotel are great options close by.
