Flights from Haneda to San Francisco: the best tips from KAYAK users' own experiences

Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from Haneda to San Francisco 
AnshumanFlew with Japan Airlines-Aug 2026
Make sure you carry your own food if you are vegetarian
Verified travelerFlew with Japan Airlines-Jan 2026
Don't get to the gate too much earlier than you need to, it is very easy and fast to get from baggage drop off through security and to the gate.
Verified travelerFlew with Japan Airlines-Dec 2024
Get to the airport early because ground transportation to/from takes time and patience. Horribly crowded airport takes time to understand if one doesn’t understand Japanese language. Transfer time from previous flight was obviously not long enough and yet this was what booking service recommended
Verified travelerFlew with United Airlines-Mar 2024
I have not flown other flights to Tokyo, so I have not much to add here. I did appreciate the option of a direct flight to your destination. Having to connect to another flight is at minimum a 2 hour add to your traveling time to an already long flight. Even though a connecting flight you have been more economical, the saved time will s worth the slightly extra cost to me.
RickFlew with United Airlines-May 2024
Haneda Airport was most convenient for me. My friend lives in Chiba so Haneda was closer to drop me off. There was a monorail if coming by train, so that came be convenient too. Check in was a breeze and also ANA accepts luggage forwarding service from our hotel which made it more convenient too!
