Haneda Airport & Narita Airport in Tokyo

 The Japanese government expressed the new idea of airports use in Tokyo. 

Some who have ever used Japanese airports in Tokyo may know that Tokyo has 2 airports, Narita Airport for international and Haneda Airport for domestic flights.  Wise people soon notice that it’s ridiculous if international and domestic airports are far separated. Yes, Tokyo has ridiculous airports.

If someone needs to go to a country town in Japan, it means he or she needs to TRAVEL  from Narita airport to Haneda airport after arriving in Tokyo International Airport, Narita.

Also the time for that airport junction is incredibly long because the 2 airports are located so far.

Generally thinking, the most ridiculous person is the person who made this idea, and decided this when Narita was made. 

Before Narita airport was made, Haneda had been an airport for both domestic and international.  But increasing demand for air transportation necessitated the government to set up the new one only for international use. That became Narita Airport.

But  the new idea expressed today was a little interesting because it says Haneda should be the HUB airport for international and domestic. For travelers, this is a good news.

But this kind of new construction often causes a lot of troubles because it brings pretty penny whichever the result may be.

I’ll try to keep my attention on this issue from now on.
