Flights from Southeast Asia to Tokyo: the best tips from KAYAK users

The only tip is do not assume a delayed flight would delay the boarding time. Our family almost missed our flight twice because of that assumption.
Verified travelerFlew with ANA-Aug 2026
Definitely fly to Haneda instead of Narita, better business class seats with lay flat and all aisle access
MichaelFlew with United Airlines-Jul 2026
Gate only opens 1 1/2 hr before flight. No need to get to airport 2 1/2 hr before flight
Verified travelerFlew with ANA-Aug 2026
Always have your passport and boarding pass ready all the way to your seat. Use the restroom before you board.

Book the afternoon flight from Bangkok. Airports were not so busy in Suvarnabhumi and Haneda.
Verified travelerFlew with ANA-Mar 2026
Make sure you weigh your carry-on and personal items. It was our first time having these weighed . On our previous flights with other airlines, they didn't weigh the carry-on and personal items so we were really confused when they instructed us to weigh it and then flustered when we had to open our check-in luggage to put some items from our personal items to meet the weight requirements.

Bring an iPad with movies to watch. The in-flight selections are limited.
Wee KengFlew with Singapore Airlines-Jun 2025
If it is the early morning flight, they would not serve breakfast and only start lunch service at 11am, hence eat before boarding. Otherwise the cabin crew would be happy to provide snacks or instant noodles before the meal.

Be sure which terminal you are arriving and departing in Manila.
DesFlew with ZIPAIR-Sept 2024
Greay value for money! Buy food at the airport and take it onboard with you - its not an issue at all.
BessieFlew with ANA-Sept 2024
ANA and JAL are always better. I try to take the first flight in the middle of the week.
KevinFlew with Cebu Pacific-Sept 2024
Bring charging cord as the have ports on the plane. You have to buy water, so get it in the airport, as 3 bottles is the same price as 1 warm bottle on the plane.
KarlFlew with Japan Airlines-Jul 2024
Don't fly to Tokyo, Faster to fly to South Korea. The flight from Bangkok to Tokyo is 6 1/2 hours, and from Bangkok to South Korea is only 5. Or you can go 4 1/2 hours Thaypay. Always take a night trip, at least you can probably get some sleep on the airplane, hopefully.
Verified travelerFlew with Japan Airlines-Jul 2024
JAL’s Carry-on baggage allowance (10kg) at Ho Chi Minh city airport ((TIA) can be confusing. For codeshare flights, partner airline regulations apply (e.g. American Airline only limit on by size - not weight).
Verified travelerFlew with Garuda Indonesia-Apr 2024
Haneda is closer than Narita to the city center. Always choose Haneda if you have the choice.
Verified travelerFlew with ANA-Feb 2024
Arriving at Terminal 3 at JFK was better than other terminals at JFK. The USA citizen immigration line was fast, the luggage arrived quickly and the spot to get uber ride was so organized .

SAN-NRT was excellent experience with crew helping and assisting in all aspects of comfort. But NRT-BAN was not that comfortable with no blankets and pillows provided and treating it more like premier economy class. This has been the pattern I have observed where JAL uses non-trained crew, uncomfortable seats, restrooms not working, locking up window seats, business class comforts taken away on NRT-BAN route. Overall quality of service goes downhill on NRT-BAN flight. Not sure why?

I had a hard time checking in as my first and middle names lacked a space. The vendor spent a long time fixing it with the JAL. This should not have been a problem. Check in at ohare was good as Regina was very helpful and kind.

Dreamliner is an excellent aircraft. Great seats in business. Flight attendant Alex had a bored, sullen attitude in serving customers. Difficult to get his attention and very slow to respond to a simple request for water. Spoiled the experience a bit as the AA motto is “we’re here because of you”. Attitude needs some adjustment!

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!

It is good. The aircraft is big enough for my legs. Just not that cold enough and food is not that good. There was a food that was supposed to be beef, but only onions, no beef inside.

The crew assisted the super senior citizen and accommodated her requests. Experience with crew was excellent. However the aircraft did not have a separate business class cabin. Some of the small offer to improve confirmt of passenger like making a bed in helping them sleep, closing the cabin door would go a long way as some of the traveler are not even aware of these facilities. Once they know, they may prefer flying business.

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

Delightful. Excellent service, excelling cabin, could never fly coach again! 😎😆😉

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..

All was great on flight to Tokyo. The ROOM setup was very comfortable. Definitely will try to do again.

I thought I purchased premium economy but got an economy seating for an expensive airfare from Kayak. Not able to pay extra to upgrade at all

On time, food was great. Didn’t wake me up when they saw me sleeping and as soon as I used the toilet, they came up and asked me if I wanted dinner. Right on!

Though the flights to and from Tokyo were the longest (and some foods I found a little bit unappetising, but some I liked), and Osaka to Tokyo was very short (therefore no food or entertainment), I kinda enjoyed them and might use them again if I go to Japan again at some point in the future

Very nice staff and very good choices for food and drinks.

The flight took off at 10pm in Singapore (which is not an issue). However, the breakfast was served at 2:00am Singapore time to ETA of 5am SG time. Hence, it was difficult to get much of rest or sleep during the flight.

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.

The stewardesses were excellent! The food and service were great. I will definitely fly ANA in the future.

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

Awful. They cancelled my flight from Osaka to Tokyo and did not communicate this with United so my flight was never rescheduled. I had to call United myself who, after being on hold with them for an entire hour, did not believe that my flight had been canceled because ANA never reported this. ANA themselves refused to rebook my flight. United then said they would only rebook my flight for $600. After three hours of calling I was able to rebook my flight. My total trip was delayed 7 hours.

It was never explained why the departure flight was canceled and delayed for 1.5 hours. It would have been nice to stick with the original itinerary.

Boarding and flying on time is the most important need of passengers they did that

The checking in agent tried to give me a different seat. She tried to give me an economy seat even though I had already checked in with a seat assigned and paid an extra $300 for those seats. She also separated our seating assignment. Very unprofessional and seriously a bad example for an agent. She was rude when I showed her my receipts and she made us wait more than 15 minutes before we were able to get the right boarding passes and correct seats (seats that we paid for in advance)!!!

Nice new lay-flat seats in Business Class!! What a wonderful experience!

Service was good but food needs maybe it’s just me Cause I am a foodservice supervisor more menu Sampling to get better quality when packed to be reheated . Vegetables are already dark and over cooked and breaded entrees are not the best choice I guess . All airlines meal service doesn’t appeal To me.Cause this trip I’ve used 4 different airlines and nothing good in all of them food wise. Thanks

They were two hours late!! Threw everything else planned off.

Uncomfortable seats for international flights. No usb charging yet they want you to use your device for entertainment. Very poor.

Upgrade their seats. They’ve got 20-year-old business class seats in their 777s. The food choices. On the way to Manila and the way back I thought we’re lousy compared to other carriers. The staff was fantastic and very happy.

Continual rescheduling of flights, inflight entertainment system did not work, staff not pleasant to interact with.

Was on premium economy. Aside from the space that was less than expected, everything went well

Cebu Pacific is just ok. Not really a budget airline as tickets can be pricey especially the add-ons. Releasing of checked-in baggage also took a long time to be available for pick-up. I also have a pending issue with Go Rewards where the my membership ID was automatically removed from the booking so the points were not awarded, and it has not been fixed for months already.

Most passengers going to Dumaguete early are tourists who are some booked thier ferry online. Mine was wasted because of delays cause by waiting on runway before taking off and too long before they let us go down...I could still make it in time if they let us go down early. We are just there waiting to go down the plane for 10-15mins.

The seats were dirty. Food on tray table. Late on my first flight and almost an hour early on the return. My driver was unable to adjust and I had to pay for different ground transportation.

Boarding had us in a tunnel with no AC for 15 minutes. Not planned well. And you have to pay for water, get at airport

Great it a good airline but no food or entertainment as it’s a airline

Very good no problems with this airline friendly staff at checking ask you where you want to sit left on time everything easy, it’s a budget airline no food or entertainment unless you buy on the flight but who need food etc on a late night flight.

"usual delay" for an hour.. they are usually missing punctuality.

i liked that the flight crew noticed my discomfort with the small leg space (I'm 6'2") and offered the emergency row. The fight attendants were very friendly, a definite strength with Cebu Pacific. I didn't like the leg space in my original seating.

The front desk and early check in was fantastic and the flight did not have any turbulence

I was rebook by the other airpott because of the delayed flight

All good and friendly However the blasting of music at take of and landing is so annoying and can’t hear anyone speaking .

Late departure, late arrival, and personal items on laps during takeoff and landing. Departure gate opened on time, but no direction as to whether to board at front or rear of plane based on seat number. Fashionable staff with sunglasses inside the plane and cockpit remained for ten minutes after the boarding complete announcement. For a scheduled 80 minute flight, adjusted to 65 minute as noted on takeoff; the total time on the plane with delays was r more than two hours. No confidence had there been an emergency that anyone would have been able or aware of what to do.

Cheap flight but more expensive when the airlines demands you pay over 30$ for 1 kilogram overweight ( it is 8,2kg I have for carry on baggage) The flights announcement 2PM, and it departed 4 PM, no announcement for delaying, People says Vietjet is delayJet airlines in their blood.

If there could be simple free food or snack or some entertainment.

Not punctual in departure and seats are very tight and narrow. Crew should handle noisy families during flight.

Flight was delayed 2 hours, which seems regular with this airline. Aircrew were avarage, friendly but robotic. At check in I asked for a spare seat. Got some stupid response about loading capacity (it was 85% full!) Then passengers behind jumped up and moved to vacant exit rows, they obviously didn't pay for. Waited over 20+ minutes to disembark, with ground staff trying to squash all passengers onto 1 bus. Causing even more delays. Unsafe and stupid! But this is a problem at Saigon airport. Overall a very average experience!

No water or snacks. Crew did not give us arrival cards. There was no need for more than 1 flight attendant as they did not do anything

The plane stayed hot the entire time, no leg room, no entertainment. Definitely a budget airline experience.

This was the worst flight (domestic or international) I have taken till date. Check-in and boarding experience at the airport were fine. I understand its a budget airline, still some basic stuff was missing. It's an international flight of almost 5 hours duration however, not even water was served to the passengers. If you need water, you have to go to the Crew Station and ask them for water. I asked him to fill up my own water bottle to which he denied and instead told me that I can have 1 Cup of water. When I informed, that we are total 4 family members needing water, he asked me to bring everyone to the Crew Station. Which I really don't understand. The cabin AC was not working or the temperature was kept at such a high temperature that I (and many others) were literally sweating. When I requested the cabin crew to reduce the temperature, my request was ignored twice. Finally I again had to go the front of the aircraft and ask the crew member to set it to 23. Then it was adjusted and we felt a little better. Overall a disappointing experience. They need to improve on lot of things while still keeping the cost low.

Good value airline for a LCC - food selection and drinks looked well priced. Flight was delayed and no rush to make up time
