✈️ Haneda tightens baggage check-in rules

📰 From September 1, 2026, six major domestic airlines at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport require checked baggage to be dropped off at least 30 minutes before departure, up from 20 minutes. The change comes as Japan pushes airlines to improve on-time performance.

🏢 Also new: a North Satellite terminal opens at Terminal 1 for domestic flights.

⚠️ Miss the 30-minute cutoff and your bag won’t be accepted. So plan extra time, especially when heading to Haneda from central Tokyo.
