Flights from Los Angeles to Narita: the best tips from KAYAK users' own experiences

Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from Los Angeles to Narita 
Verified travelerFlew with Singapore Airlines-Jun 2026
I bought an eSIM and didn’t work because my phone is already locked to one, perhaps another way to purchase a data plan to get cellular access in your destination.
Verified travelerFlew with ANA-Dec 2025
LAX checking in was quick and the connecting flight was the adjacent gate so it was very convenient.
MikeFlew with United Airlines-Feb 2026
I wish it was clearer about carry-on baggage rules for Basic Economy (international). The app said "No carry on bags allowed" but actually it was Narita-LAX-Narita so carry on was OK. It caused some problems deciding how to pack. Maybe have a video at the gate while people are waiting about the QR-code customs declaration and transport options? (I don't need these personally, I've lived in Japan for 20 years)
Verified travelerFlew with Singapore Airlines-Mar 2025
Stand up and move around at least every 2 hours

Arrive early, have a small carry-on, maybe a large bottle of water.

Your guide to booking Los Angeles to Tokyo Narita Airport flights

Get tips on when to book, when to fly and what to know before your trip.
  • If your dates are flexible, aim for a Tuesday departure and avoid flying on Saturday. On this route, Tuesday flights average $757, about $130 less than Saturday fares (15% savings) based on the last 12 months.
  • For the best chance at a low fare, aim to book around 24 weeks before you fly. On this route, that window historically saves about 4% versus last-minute pricing (KAYAK booking data, last 12 months).
  • If you can choose when to travel, plan your Los Angeles to Tokyo Narita Airport trip for January. Fares historically average $632 round-trip in that month - typically $428 less than the most expensive month, which is December (based on the last 12 months).
  • For the best chance of arriving on time, fly with Korean Air. Over the past three months, 93% of Korean Air flights from Los Angeles to Tokyo Narita Airport arrived on time, slightly above the route average of 84%. When flights on this route arrive late, they're delayed by an average of 2h 39m, so choosing an airline with strong on-time performance can make a difference if you're on a tight schedule.
  • If you have the time, taking a 1-stop flight through Beijing Capital Airport (PEK) can be cheaper than flying direct. The cheapest layover option averages $686 round-trip on this route - about $133 less than direct flights (based on the last 12 months).
  • If you're flying Japan Airlines, take advantage of its hub at Tokyo Narita Airport. Use one of the airport's comfortable lounges to unwind after the long-haul flight from Los Angeles. At Narita, JAL's Face Express can speed up certain departure formalities for passengers who register and help avoid long lines at the carousel.
  • Take the FlyAway bus to LAX if you want a convenient option from downtown Los Angeles. It runs daily from the terminal at Woodley Avenue in Van Nuys and the trip takes 40 to 80 minutes each way.
  • Once you land at Tokyo Narita Airport (NRT), you can continue your trip by bus or train. For rail service, use the Narita Sky Access line, Keisei line or JR line.
  • If you're traveling with family and have time before your flight, look out for LAX's PUP program ("Pets Unstressing Passengers") in the Departures areas. The animals roam those zones to help ease pre-flight anxiety.
  • Head to one of the lounges at Tokyo Narita Airport (NRT) to relax after a long-haul flight. These lounges offer free Wi-Fi and complimentary meals. Airlines such as Emirates Airways, Korean Airlines and United Airlines operate lounges at NRT, but access is usually limited to members or passengers with the relevant cards, so check with the airline before arriving.
  • If you're driving to LAX, use one of the parking structures opposite the airline terminals. The airport has numerous parking options there, including covered parking.
