Frequently asked questions

What is the IATA code for Osaka airport?
Osaka has two main airports: Itami (ITM) for domestic flights and Kansai (KIX) for international. The metro code OSA covers both, but Flightmussy treats them separately so you can filter by airport. Multi-airport origin filter is built in for the city.
How far is Itami Airport from central Osaka?
ITM is about 13 km north of central Osaka. The Osaka Monorail connects to Hotarugaike for transfer to the Hankyu Line, reaching Umeda in roughly 25 minutes. Direct airport limousine buses also run to Umeda in around 30 minutes and to Namba in 30 to 35 minutes.
Are there international flights from Itami?
No, Itami is domestic-only since 1994 when international flights were moved to the new Kansai International Airport (KIX) in Osaka Bay. If you need international service from Osaka, search KIX. Flightmussy's multi-airport filter lets you compare both ITM and KIX in one search.
Which airlines fly Itami to Tokyo Haneda?
JAL and ANA both run frequent ITM-Haneda services with departures roughly every 30 minutes during the day. The route competes directly with the Tokaido Shinkansen on price and journey time. Flightmussy shows when JAL or ANA discount fares enough to undercut a flexible bullet train ticket.
