Flights from California to Tokyo: the best tips from KAYAK users

Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from California to Tokyo 
Verified travelerFlew with ANASFO-HNDMar 2025
Compression socks are your friend. I wish I bought some to help me deal with the cramped seating.
Verified travelerFlew with Singapore AirlinesLAX-NRTMar 2025
Stand up and move around at least every 2 hours
TFlew with ZIPAIRSFO-NRTNov 2024
Haneda is closer to the city center, so fly there if you can. Zipair has by far the best rates, but try to book early and pick a seat so you’re not stuck in a middle seat.
Verified travelerFlew with Japan AirlinesLAX-HNDOct 2024
If you are connecting to a domestic flight in Japan allow at least 2-3 hours between flights. Immigration at Haneda is very slow . They are now fingerprinting and photographing all international passengers. Doesn’t help if you used the Japan website for preclearance or not, same line either way.
TedFlew with American AirlinesSAN-NRTAug 2024
If you can fly JAL direct from San Diego to Tokyo, I would do it. The time you save with no layover or dealing with an unfamiliar airport more than makes up the difference in price. Once you fly direct, you'll understand!
HughFlew with Singapore AirlinesLAX-NRTJun 2024
Arrive early, have a small carry-on, maybe a large bottle of water.
Verified travelerFlew with Japan AirlinesLAX-HNDApr 2024
Get your seat ahead of time especially for elderly. Who need to get in and out of the seat to stretch.
