ANA & JAL shift to Haneda, What are Curation Fees?, 50 things to do in Sydney!

Many Tokyo-bound passengers prefer to fly to Haneda as it is closer to the city centre than from Narita. Japan's major airlines, ANA and JAL, are moving more flights to Haneda Airport, which is closer to Tokyo compared to Narita. This is due to strong demand for travel to Japan and preference for Haneda's convenient location. Haneda's expansion allows more international flights, while Narita is increasingly handling cargo and low-cost carrier flights. Despite this shift, both airports are still seen as a "dual hub" system.While Haneda is likely to remain the main entry point for tourists, further expansion faces challenges like land limitations and resident complaints about noise. Building a new airport is an option, but fierce opposition from locals is a concern, similar to the protests during Narita's construction.
