FAQs - booking Japan flights

  • Are there direct flights to Japan?

    Several Canadian and Japanese carriers such as Air Canada, ANA and Japan Airlines offer direct flights to Japan, with the vast majority flying into Tokyo's two international airports, Narita International Airport (NRT) and Haneda Airport (HND). Air Canada seasonally offers direct flights from Vancouver International Airport to Kansai International Airport (KIX) in Osaka.

  • Do I need a visa to visit Japan?

    Canadian citizens do not need a visa if they enter Japan as a tourist and their stay does not exceed 90 days. Upon arrival, you must present a passport that is valid for the entire duration of your stay as well as proof of onward or return travel, such as an airline ticket and confirmed accommodation.

  • Where should I fly to in Japan?

    Japan is an island state and many major cities have their own airport, so your choice of airport will depend on your travel itinerary. As the majority of international flights arrive at one of Tokyo's international airports, the capital might be the perfect starting point for your journey. You can either catch a connecting flight to other regions of the country or travel onwards by rail as Japan has an extremely well-developed railway network, including the Shinkansen high-speed bullet trains which conveniently connect major cities in Japan.

  • I want to visit Mount Fuji and the Five Lakes region. Where should I fly into?

    The Five Lakes region is located in Yamanashi prefecture and is easily accessible from Tokyo. As the region is to the east of Tokyo, Haneda Airport is slightly closer and provides an easier and faster access to the busses or trains that depart from Shinjuku station and take you to Kawaguchiko, the closest station to Mount Fuji. If you prefer to fly to Narita International Airport in Tokyo, you can catch the Narita Express train which also goes to Kawaguchiko.

  • How simple is it to fly to Japan with kids from Canadian airports?

    To lessen the possibility that your kids would become fatigued throughout the Canada to Japan journey, think about making reservations with airlines that provide free internet connectivity. Japan Airlines and Qatar Airways are examples of airlines that offer unrestricted internet access between Canada and Japan. Your kids can watch their favorite animated networks or TV shows by using the internet services offered by these carriers, which lessens boredom.

  • If I want to enjoy watching sports in Japan, where should they fly to?

    When visiting Japan, consider flying through Narita International Airport (NRT) if you want to attend local sporting events and gaming-related activities. Tokyo, the nation's capital, is home to the bulk of Japan's stadiums. At Ryogoku Kokugikan Stadium, Japan National Stadium, and National Yoyogi Stadium, you may watch your preferred local soccer matches, especially on the weekends. From NRT Airport, getting to these stadiums is simple thanks to the availability of train system, rental cars, taxis, and buses.

  • How does KAYAK find such low prices on flights from Canada to Japan?

    KAYAK is a travel search engine. That means we look across the web to find the best prices we can find for our users. With over 2 billion flight queries processed yearly, we are able to display a variety of prices and options on flights from Canada to Japan.

  • How does KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy my flight ticket from Canada to Japan?

    KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a flight from Canada to Japan is likely to change within 7 days, so travellers know whether to wait or book now.

  • What is the Hacker Fare option on flights from Canada to Japan?

    Hacker Fares allow you to combine one-way tickets in order to save you money over a traditional round-trip ticket. You could then fly from Canada to Japan with an airline and back with another airline.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from Canada to Japan?

    Sometimes travel dates aren't set in stone. If your preferred travel dates have some wiggle room, flexible dates will show you all the options when flying from Canada to Japan up to 3 days before/after your preferred dates. You can then pick the flights that suit you best.

  • What is the cheapest day to fly to Japan?

    Based on KAYAK data, the cheapest day to fly to Japan is Wednesday when round-trip tickets can be as cheap as C$ 1,277. On the other hand, the most expensive day to fly is Sunday, when round-trip prices are C$ 1,469 on average.

The ladies are great seats should be a little bigger!

Couple of hours delayed, we had to re-booked our Shinkansen reservation twice. United Aiines need to improve their time!

The check-in started 3 minutes early; there were people lining up a half hour before. I was third, and I got checked in and passes in hand for my connection as well; I walked away from the desk one minute before it was even supposed to be open. Amazing. That said, the food on the first leg of my trip was not good, and I didn’t finish it. Second leg, it was tasty. You get a cup of Häagen-Dazs after dinner. The staff were polite and helpful. Will use again.

Crew was fantastic. Seats were not completely lay flat but still comfortable to watch a show. International food was lobster which was very big but a little tough. The scallop appetizer was delicious. Loved the individual air conditioning vent at each seat. Flight overall was very smooth and very good.

Staff was friendly but couldn't find way to track them down during flight. Food tried to be gourmet but was just too unusual. Business class seats were hard. Even sitting on the pillow, was still painful. Have to give them credit for on-time flights and decent gate area.

Flight was excellent. Transfer from one airport to another airport for a connecting flight was difficult and stressful.

Overall good except the checkin process at Bangkok airport. Can ANA explain why the line for business class is longer than that for economy? I, BC passenger, had to move from BC line to economy line to get faster service.

Matsuyama to Tokyo is basically a puddle jumper flight, so it was as good as one should expect. No meal, no entertainment, and none expected.

The staff is amazing, I cannot stress that enough! The food is really good and snacks at stations to take for yourselves. Economy seating is fine, not the most comfortable, but our friends in Premium Economy said they were very comfortable! Decent entertainment options, but being built in, you have to use their cheap headsets unless you have your own plug in ones. I only have Bluetooth earbuds.

Seats were extremely cramped even for economy. Food was atrocious. Crew was fine but no follow up, additional drinks offered etc. For a 14 hour flight I expected more.

Starlink is great Crew was polite Business class didn’t get a welcome drink just water and snacks were ok

very average service no complimentary alcoholics drinks unlike other airlines such as Porter airlines No decent seats available during check-in time the day before

Good but airlines getting smaller. I didn't like the meal but the service was fine. Flight was fine and luggage arrived. So good.

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.

They were fast and I like how they used to entertainment system to play video about the safety.

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

Flight delayed. Connecting to night flight was stressful but made it. Jusr in time. Ran.88Flight was fine.

Business class seats felt very cramped compared to other airlines.

Hopped on time for the flight only to get deplaned and delayed another 2.5 hours.

Wifi never really worked. Flight attendants were generally fine except when they were not very helpful when my wife accidentally spilled a soda (they chastised her to apologize to the people sitting behind when it was dark and we couldn't see anything and they brought one tiny napkin to help clean it up). Seats were uncomfortable for all four of us. Otherwise a typical flight.

Seats in economy might too narrow. people sitting next to each other is always hitting shoulders.

Easy to board and fly, no frills. Yummy ramen on board.

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

Couple of the crew members were really nice and the rest are really rude and didn't help when we needed help, food was not worth it at all and most importantly there's no even entertainment system other than a very interruptive and slow internet and some movies.

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.

Comfortable seats and lucky no one was in middle seat. No water on the plane. Plane was on time and staff was fast.

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.

I didn’t have any food but my Prosecco hit the spot. We left on time and the crew was friendly.

The pricing was split into an ultra basic fare with a comfort seat upgrade. This is misleading. Never were we shown an ultra basic fare. What this did because the fare category was ultra basic we could not bid on an upgrade first class seat. All e mails from WestJet were for ultra basic category with my wife and I upset as we could not confirm this with anyone from your firm.The check in counter were not going to allow our carry on but after some checking saw we had ultra basic and a comfort seat upgrade. They could not figure out how this was done. Now we have to go through this again at the gate in Mexico. Unless I missed it - please let customers know the billing in future. Respectfully. Gary & Nancy Moughtin

Flight didn’t happen because both my connections were lost and Toronto wouldn’t let me board. I was checked in to all 3 flights at the check-in fest in Dublin.

The flight didn’t happen because they apparently lost my check in and wouldn’t let me board.

Access to movies was rather confusing. Apart from that, I have no complaints.

I wasn’t able to book or pay for a seat and they forgot to check me in for my third flight so I spent 24 hours in Toronto waiting for another one.

I wasn’t checked in for the third leg of my flight, my bag was checked through to Dublin but when I went to the gate in Toronto they said I wasn’t on the flight and had given my seat away. I had to wait 24 hours for another flight and instead on the one I had booked it was now 2 flights.

Flight was delayed for 5hours. Food vouchers just aren’t good enough

The agents at the Kelowna YLW airport were really grumpy. Same with oversized baggage person. Staff on the plane were great.

Flight was early. That’s the only positive I can share. I paid for wifi on the flight and it didn’t allow me to use any streaming services so it was a waste of $20. West Jet also lost my ski equipment on my way to a ski vacation. They told me it would be delivered to the hotel as soon as it arrived at the airport. It was never delivered. I had to pick it up at the airport on my way home. I am completely disgusted with my experience on west jet

I cannot think how they could put more seats together but they did. So elbow to elbow leg to leg for these long journeys they should consider leg space at least. Since they did not offer to check people's carry one space was tight and if you did not get on first people used your assigned overhead storage so now your doing these same to another. Cascading inconvenience.

Despite exit row seating, which gave leg room, seating was so narrow, the next passenger spilled over onto my seat. WiFi did not work.

It was okay. The seating didn’t give you much space especially when you book a premium. It was still pretty close. The seats had no screens which was a disappointment. The crew was awesome though. Again I wish the wait between families with children boarding and general boarding was a little longer to give families some time to get situated especially those bringing a stroller like myself or for solo parents travelling like myself who has to do everything. The time between boarding zones especially with chilling is so short, I had to gate check my stroller and did not have enough time to pull it down and transport my luggage inside all while having my infant strapped to me or to even ask a flight attendant to assist as they’re busy with the the general boarding going on

Complimentary food options could be better. There should be a little wait between people boarding with children under 6 and the rest of the boarding. There isn’t enough time to get yourself situated before take off.

Flight itself was not bad at all. However: my checked bag (checked in Calgary) did not make it onto this flight as I found out after I landed at EWR. I still don't have it but it appears that it is on its way to me.

I was tired enough to fall asleep soon after takeoff and slept until "we are starting our descent to Toronto" announcement. That's not bad at all.

Very tight seats - no legroom at all, very tight to the person in front of you. If you have basic fare, you are loading zone 6 regardless of where you are sitting in the plane - meaning even as a middle aisle person at the front of the plane, I had to get people to get up and let me in as they had boarded earlier. Having to pay for a carry on is criminal. I am a frequent flyer, and air Canada has now joined the list of other terrible North American Airlines.

The crew was amazing! I was a bit surprised and disappointed that there was not wifi available for personal use. The only thing I would change would be the seat cushions. They are not comfortable at all for long flights.

Flight and attendance were very good we had 2 hour delay that took the shine of it

Boarding went smoothly and on time. No entertainment system and only a cookie for breakfast.
