Flights to Tokyo

A flight to Tokyo takes approximately 13 hours and 40 minutes from London.

Tokyo is a popular holiday destination in the spring when the cherry blossoms bloom. It also attracts visitors in the autumn when the city has traded the greens of summer for reds, oranges and yellows, and the temperature isn’t too hot. Search for flights outside of these periods to save, and use our low fare finder to find the best prices.

Big cities offer lots of choice for visitors, so you can adapt your trip to cost as much or as little as you’d like. Budget eats are on the cards thanks to cheap street food and chain restaurants with set menus. Supermarkets are a great place to pick up an edible bargain too. You can also save money on your accommodation costs while enjoying an authentic Tokyo experience by staying in one of the city’s capsule hotels.

Haneda Interational Airport is the airport closest to Tokyo’s city centre, and there are several transport options to get you to your hotel. A taxi takes around 30 minutes and buses can take a little longer, while the monorail or Keikyu train takes about 15.

Tokyo has to be seen to be believed. Divided into 14 different districts, there’s a corner for every visitor. Head to Akihabara for sensory overload – giant anime characters plastered across billboards, the pings and whizzes of arcade games, and manga cafes. For a peaceful afternoon in nature, the Imperial Palace has several gardens and a Buddhist temple to explore. Hungry for Tokyo’s best sushi? Work your way around the restaurants in Tsukiji to find your favourite.

Tokyo has a varied climate, with warm springs and hot, humid summers. Temperatures in the summer months can reach up to 40°C, particularly during the rainy seasons in September and June. January is the coldest month of the year, with average temperatures of around 2 - 10°C.
