Things to do in Tokyo when you land
teamLab digital art museums, Tokyo Tower and Roppongi Hills, the Imperial Palace gardens, a day trip to Mount Fuji or Hakone and Senso-ji temple in Asakusa are what most travellers come to Tokyo for. Tokyo is the capital of Japan and the largest metropolitan area in the world, served by Haneda (HND) about 15-20 km south of the centre on Tokyo Bay and Narita (NRT) about 60-70 km east in Chiba, with the districts of Shinjuku, Shibuya, Ginza and Asakusa each a city in themselves. Eat yakitori under the Yurakucho tracks, a depachika food hall and wagyu and okonomiyaki while you are there.
We offer tours and transfers in Tokyo as well as the flight ticket - one conversation, one plan for the whole trip.
Best time to fly from San Diego to Tokyo
Cherry blossom in late March-April and autumn colours in November are the busiest seasons; summer is hot and humid, and the expressways from both airports are slowest on weekday evenings. For the fare itself, the cheapest flights from San Diego to Tokyo are found outside school holidays and major events, on mid-week days, booked early. Peak weeks sell out first and cost most; shoulder months give the best mix of weather, availability and price.
Return flight from Tokyo to San Diego
Coming back? Say so on the form. A return flight ticket from Tokyo to San Diego booked with the outbound is often cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.
How much is a flight from San Diego to Tokyo?
"How much is the San Diego to Tokyo flight?" is the question we get most, and the honest answer is that it moves every day. Low fares open months ahead and disappear as seats sell; peak seasons, school holidays and the most convenient departure times cost more; a fare with a checked bag and a flexible ticket cost more than a hand-luggage-only seat. Haqqi Tours provides the current cost for your date in a few minutes of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.
Ask us for two or three options and we send the cost of each - for example the cheapest fare with hand luggage only, the same flight with a checked bag, and the best-timed departure of the day - so the comparison is in front of you before you book.
Cheapest flight from San Diego to Tokyo: how to pay less

- Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
- Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
- Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we check
- Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more
- Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays

Airlines flying from San Diego to Tokyo
On the flight from San Diego to Tokyo you can choose between Japan Airlines. A full-service airline generally includes a checked bag, a meal and a flexible ticket; a low-cost fare is cheaper at the start and adds those items one by one. We provide both and tell you the total for the way you actually travel.
Departure: San Diego International Airport (SAN)
Flights from San Diego to Tokyo leave from San Diego International Airport (SAN), serving San Diego - san Diego is the sunny beach city of the zoo, Balboa Park, La Jolla and the Gaslamp Quarter. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket. Getting to the airport: The airport is one of the closest to any city centre, and buses, the Trolley, Uber and taxis reach downtown in about 10 minutes; a private car is simpler for Coronado, La Jolla, the cruise terminal with luggage, families and every longer trip to Carlsbad, Temecula, Anaheim or the border.
- Haqqi Tours offers a private transfer from your hotel in San Diego to San Diego International Airport
- Ask us about the terminal and fast-track options at San Diego International Airport
- Arrive about 2 hours before an international departure, 90 minutes before a domestic one
- Online check-in opens 24-48 hours before; we send the link and the booking reference
Arrival: Tokyo Narita Airport (NRT) and getting into Tokyo
You arrive at Tokyo Narita Airport (NRT). Tokyo's trains are superb - the Keikyu line and monorail from Haneda, the Narita Express and Skyliner from Narita - but they end at big stations where the last leg with suitcases through crowds and stairs is the hard part; a car to the hotel door removes that, and a Sprinter suits a group with ski or golf luggage. If you would rather not think about it, we book a private transfer from the airport to your hotel in Tokyo, with the driver tracking the flight in case it is late.
Many passengers continue from Tokyo to somewhere else. We provide those tickets too, so one WhatsApp conversation covers the whole itinerary.
Baggage, seats and classes on the San Diego to Tokyo flight

- Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request
- Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy
