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

Be sure to dress warm & have plenty of cushion on your bottom. The seat of the economy class is not that comfortable. If you can afford to upgrade, get better class.

Empty your luggages when you go to Tokyo so you can enjoy shopping!

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.

make sure to file any medication permission for things like ADHD meds or opiates for pain management early, so you don't need to rush.

Get to the airport early to experience the ANA lounge.

I would say that for international flights, be prepared for a possibly very long walk to your gate after security check. Also, there is an agricultural check for leaving the islands that you have to queue up for before you even get inside the airport. So that is another delay to prepare for. Otherwise, it’s a typical flight, just leave yourself some extra time for these added steps.

I did not find particularly good stuff in Entertainment (movies and TV), so you may want to bring what you like.

We have been flying in and out of Haneda the last few trips. We decided to go to Narita this time. I'm glad we did. It was less crowded and relatively easy to navigate for us. We were able to catch a bus to the North to Tochigi prefecture without much trouble. If you are coming from another country, You must fill out the immigration forms beforehand. There is a table set aside for that. Immigrations goes quick. They do facial recognition and finger prints and stamp your passport. Then you get your bags. Fairly seamless.

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)
BryanFlew with ANA-Feb 2026
Check your operating carrier. It seems like ANA is operated by United, so you would essentially be paying for United Airlines service (supposedly 3 stars) as opposed to the 5 star ANA service.

Bring your own tasty snacks because the provided food is average airplane food. Bring your own entertainment; download to your phone to watch something interesting.
MarkFlew with United Airlines-Apr 2025
For that long of a flight, spend the extra money for more leg room if you can afford it and don't waste you money or miles on United's wifi. Shout out to United's new check in/baggage procedure in Denver... It took a minute to navigate it but once I did... I wish all airlines would do similar.. it was fast and easy!!!
Verified travelerFlew with Singapore Airlines-Mar 2025
Stand up and move around at least every 2 hours
DavidFlew with United Airlines-Dec 2024
Do not take an aisle seat on Boeing aircraft. The carts are to wide for the aisles and so are many of the crew. You will be bumped by one or the other throughout the flight. Poorly designed aircraft.
TFlew with ZIPAIR-Nov 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.
TedFlew with American Airlines-Aug 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 Airlines-Jun 2024
Arrive early, have a small carry-on, maybe a large bottle of water.

The best part was the staff. They are kind and gracious and made it a good flight.

Reasonable price, great service, highly recommended. i arrived well rested!

Since I traveled on my birthday, they gave me a gift and a card. How thoughtful and caring.

Our flight was canceled, then they moved us to a different flight number yet we didn’t receive notifications timely. We had to find out the latest on our own / later AA sent a text with the updated info..

They didn't tell me they changed my flight. So I got confused on what happened to my flight.

It was good overall. What I liked most was the restrooms. Compared to other airlines, the restrooms seem larger and look clean. The seats also look clean. The attendants are nice, except one time during the flight. I was sitting on aisle and a man sitting window. He asked an attendant for a snack. She told him to go ahead and get some snack from the section with food storage (I am not sure how it is called). So, I had to get up to let him get out from his seat. Why she did not bring him some snacks so that I would not have to move, I do not know... I was kind of surprised how inconsiderate the attendant was.

JOKE of a company with the most Ridiculous policies. JAL is amazing, KAYAK/UNDERPRICER is the worst company I have ever dealt with, NEVER AGAIN

Overall, a solid flight experience. Boarding was quick and efficient, even with a full and overbooked flight. The flight crew did a great job providing attentive and friendly service throughout. I flew in economy, and while the seats were acceptable, they could definitely use more cushioning, especially for a 14-hour flight. By the end, it was quite uncomfortable to remain seated. Legroom was also limited, particularly with a bag stored under the seat and the passenger in front reclining. That said, everything else went smoothly, and I appreciated the professionalism of the crew.

The flight was delightful overall. The check-in and boarding were on smooth and on time. Amenities and staffs were elevated. However, if glasses were served instead of cups, there should be a complete premium.

Sure I would’ve liked a little more space, but it was better than economy. I bring my own food because I have food allergies it would be nice if they offered larger salads or more vegetables instead of starch it was really a good flight. I don’t wanna complain. I’m grateful to fly at all safely. Thank you to the pilots.

I was expecting to fly in a Japanese airline because that what I bought, very disappointed finding out the change of airline without any explanation.

Excellent. There were setbacks, but it had nothing to do with the crew. Mostly, mechanical which delayed our flight.

It was so disappointed trip by unexpected company's fault delay. It had taken 3 hours delay for mechanical maintenance plus another 3 hours for bad weather.

SEA HND sector internet only worked for the last 2.5hrs of flight….. never had this kind of incident with other airlines

12 of the 14 hours were in the dark, all during daylight. Didn’t use my light because it disturbed other people it was illuminating. 14 hours sitting upright in a cramped space was horrible.

I’ve always had pleasant experiences with ANA and that has made me a loyal customer.

UA discouraged people to choose seat on economy class by charging about three times of another airlines. For example, ANA will charge USD60 to choose an aisle seat but UA is charging USD 219.

Roomy airlines. Friendly staff. Timely service. Temp was warm during the flight.

The food was terrible and totally inedible. If you are flying with ANA/United bring your own food it was a long flight to be hingry

I thought I bought the ticket directly through Kayak not a 3rd party

The friendliness of the attendants, and the quality of the service.

Food was terrible , uncomfortable seats, WiFi did not work, will never fly Singapore again.

They ran out of the second choice of food was stuck with fish

Very good flight from Boarding to landing -efficient and comfortable with decent entertainment options

Overall, very good. The food was better than expected with the exception of the pork and potatoes dinner at the end of the flight. My family all selected that dish and did not set it. I tried a bite also and it was honestly terrible. Also, it would be helpful to know when the snacks in the back of the plane are available.

The crew and their service was top notch, but the plane itself seemed to be on the older side and worn out. Also, the food could’ve been better. 9 out of 10.

Excellent- a lot of food Disappointed with the premium economy pouch- did not have toothbrush and tooth paste or socks. Other airlines provide them

I had a great experience with Singapore airlines as always. The partner airline, Scoot was fine except my bag was misplaced during the shuffle. Ultimately, my baggage arrived intact. Attempting to inquire about my baggage was impossible.

I didn’t get to go, and no refund was available after asking for 2 months

The crew was so kind! I had such a nice flight !

Flight delayed and then cancelled (due to mechanical issues + weather). Poor communication. No one there to help with rebooking and accommodations for the night we had to stay in Newark. Our luggage was taken off the original flight and apparently left on the tarmac in the rain. Items were soaking rain. The following day, the flight was also delayed due to mechanical issues. The second year in a row that I had to sleep in an airport flying from Tokyo to Newark due to mechanical issues compounded by bad weather. Partly bad luck and partly just poor service.

Polaris seat is plush and conducive to sleep. Cabin crew was experienced, highly attentive and helpful when any need arose, such as finding a lost phone in the seat mechanism. Food was a disappointment, especially the Japanese items coming out of Newark all seemed a bit overcooked, though the empanada snacks served midway were a hit.

I was promised by United Airline (operated by ANA) that I will be seated together with my kids as I am the only adult flying with two minors. We did not get seats together in our 11 hours flight from LA to Tokyo. When asked at the gate, ANA representative said United Airline should have informed them that there is a parent flying with two minors. He said they can’t do anything in the system as the flight is full. He ask me to ask passengers next to me and the kids if they are willing to change seats. This is ridiculous! However, I went in the flight and asked other passages but no one willing to change seats. 11 hours and we were seating separately. I was very disappointed with this. It made things super inconvenient for me.

I paid for a confirmed upgraded aisle seat and was moved to a center seat in the back of the plane at the last minute.

Smooth travel. Immediate update prior flight delay so I can arrange myself properly without too rush.

Very comfortable seating and the Flight staff were very attentive. The premium economy section that I was seated in was very clean, updated, and well appointed. I would highly recommend flying United Airlines as this experience was better than the Japan Airlines business class that I flew several months ago.

It's a long flight and I would have liked better snacks between lunch and the arrival meal. It's fine to have fruit and nuts but I really don't like ramen because it's salty junk soup. I'd suggest sandwiches. They're not expensive nor are they hard to store for a long flight. The FA's had a couple of big services and they were super busy preparing, executing and then cleaning up. Then they disappeared.

I had a good time. However, I paid for the wifi and it was in and out the whole flight.

The business class seat is exceptional. I wish the food is more palatable.

Business class seats felt very cramped compared to other airlines.

It was for the most part a 10/10 they said they had entertainment options but all they had was old movies for streaming from the mid 2010’s so like 10 years ago

all good for a very budget flight - well priced and excellent service. Will fly again

I appreciate the economy price of the tickets. The long flight made the comfort level on the lower average side. Wi-Fi connection was not consistent but working. Overall, I would fly again with zip air but next time get the flat, premium seats with the amount of money I would save otherwise.

You get what you pay for and nothing more. Wanted a cheap flight and that’s exactly what I got, though it’s human nature to wanting to feel like you got a good deal as well. There was none of that here. I was cheap and they were too. Got to my destination safely and that’s all that really matters.

Nice service. I wish it could provide hot water on the flight.

Wifi could have been better. Arrived 55 mins earlier than scheduled :)

Best part are two crying babies throughout the whole 11 hour trip

Inflight WiFi would lose connection when you don't continuously use it, and would sometimes be difficult to reconnect. Food quality could be a bit better. Other than that, it was excellent.

i requested refund and among $800 i got refunded 100 bucks :) how can it be possible?

Staff didn't speak much English but were attentive. Not one time was I offered a snack or complimentary drink.
