The Haneda Airport(東京 国際 空港, Tōkyō Kokusai Kūkō) is the older of the two airports in the Japanese Capital Tokyo.
background
After opening the contested Narita AirportLocated a good seventy kilometers from the city center, Haneda was used almost exclusively for domestic flights for around thirty years. Since the opening of the international terminal in 2010 and a fourth runway, it has been increasingly approached from overseas again. If you should buy a ticket to Tokyo instead of being able to fly to Haneda to Narita (NRT), this is preferable in any case because of the much better accessibility.
