Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from Japan to San Francisco 
JasonFlew with ZIPAIR-Aug 2026
You don't need the meal, eat at Tokyo and relax on the flight. Bring water & chargers.
AnshumanFlew with Japan Airlines-Aug 2026
Make sure you carry your own food if you are vegetarian
Verified travelerFlew with ANA-May 2025
Bring your own meals like sandwich, nuts, fruit, or protein bar, because the food not only smells fowl but tastes even more so. Jesus, I’d rather just eat a protein bar.
Verified travelerFlew with Japan Airlines-Nov 2024
This trip seemed shorter than I thought. Sleeping helps pass the time. Also take an aspirin and wear compression socks
Verified travelerFlew with United Airlines-Oct 2024
Procedures in Tokyo Narita airport are very efficient. Transportation to and from Tokyo is also efficient, economical, and available.
Verified travelerFlew with Japan Airlines-Oct 2024
Get a butt pillow for the long flight and a neck pillow to sleep comfortably
JohnjimyFlew with ANA-Aug 2024
If you have multiple carry-on. You may be subjected to have tags or have to pay, due to limited spaces. I was fortunate to have my bag under seat for take off. Other passengers decided to bring the whole room with them without me having space to put my backpack carry on.
Verified travelerFlew with ANA-May 2024
Haneda airport now handles most of the international traffic. It's much closer to downtown Tokyo. Narita is 45-55 minutes out of town. Do online and complete you immigration documentation before your flight. Print the QR code and the machine will scan it along with your passport. Much faster.
