Departing from Sydney
Sydney Airport (SYD) is also known as Mascot Airport or Kingsford Smith Airport, and is located 8km from the city centre. It is the busiest airport in Australia and consists of three terminals, with Terminal 1 the hub for international flights and Terminals 2 and 3 servicing domestic flights. A fast and reliable way to get yourself to the airport â especially during peak times â is the AirportLink train, which departs from Central, Circular Quay, and any of the city stations. Trains run approximately every ten minutes, with the journey taking less than 15 minutes. A one-way ticket is about $19. To use AirportLink, youâll need to purchase an Opal Card. Itâs easy to take a taxi or rideshare service to the airport too, but allow plenty of time if youâre travelling in the peak periods. Read more about Sydney Airport (SYD) transport options.
Â
Where will my flight land?
The two international airports which service Tokyo are Narita International Airport (NRT) and Haneda Airport (HND). Narita is by far the primary airport for international flights, and is located 60km east of Tokyo city centre. A range of buses and trains service the airport daily, with the quickest route being to take the JR Narita Express. A taxi to Tokyo city centre will be in excess of AU$200 so thankfully, there are numerous other options. Haneda Airport is actually Japanâs busiest airport, but handles more domestic than international flights. Some airlines, such as Qantas, flight non-stop from Australia to Haneda Airport. You can easily get to Tokyo city centre from Haneda Airport via the Tokyo Monorail and Keikyu Railways.
Â
What is the weather like in Tokyo?
Japanâs capital has four seasons: mild springs, mild autumns, hot summers, and cold winters. The average temperature in Tokyo is 16 degrees Celsius. The best time to visit Tokyo is spring. Itâs the most popular of all Tokyo seasons, when the cherry blossoms are out, the weather is mild and events fill the Tokyo calendar.
Summer
Summer in Tokyo runs from June to August. Itâs hot, with temperatures sometimes reaching 40 degrees Celsius and the humidity high. While June to July is Tokyoâs rainy season, it doesnât rain every day, so youâll have ample time to enjoy the cityâs sights. The lively summer festivals of Tokyo make travelling to the city in summer worth the heat and humidity.
Appropriate clothing: Light, breathable clothing that dries quickly
Donât forget: An umbrella and slip-on shoes (youâll take off your shoes when stepping onto tatami mats, into temples, and into private homes)
Autumn
Autumn in Tokyo (September to November) sees crisp, cool and clear days. October in particular is a great time for travelling, as the humidity is milder than in summer but itâs still pleasantly warm. Bear in mind, September is a time of year that experiences the highest threat of typhoons â a risk worth considering when it comes to making travel plans.
Appropriate clothing: Clothing that layers easily to suit the changing weather
Donât forget: Slip-on shoes, a waterproof jacket, and a camera (the autumn foliage is beautiful)
Winter
Tokyoâs winter (December to February) is clear and crisp. The city gets very little to no snow and the average temperature sits at around 5 to 8 degrees Celsius. Itâs the perfect season to eat hotpot, see the illuminations in Roppongi, Ginza and Shinjuku, or head north for skiing.
Appropriate clothing: Warm clothing and a winter coat
Donât forget: Slip-on shoes and a scarf
Spring
Spring in Tokyo (March to May) sees warmer days with temperatures sitting between 9°C and 18°C. In spring, you can enjoy cherry blossom festivities and picnics, before the impending showers set in. At the end of April, there are national holidays (Golden Week) â this is a busy travel season so you may wish to avoid it.
Appropriate clothing: Warm clothing and a light cardigan or sweater for cold evenings
Donât forget: Slip-on shoes and a picnic mat
