Haneda is the 4th busiest airport in the world servicing approximately 64 million passengers in 2006. Located on Tokyo Bay, it serves 6 carriers including JAL and ANA, as well as 4 low-cost carriers (Skymark Airlines, SkynetAsia, Star Flyer, and Hokkaido International Airlines or AirDo). Extremely spotter-friendly and plenty of traffic, but not much diversity.

Official Spotting Locations

Terminal 1 Observation Deck

Terminal 1 has two observation decks on the 6th floor of the terminal, one on the north side and one of the south. These decks face RWY 16R/34L which is most often used for landing. As well, most of the JAL gates are visible. There are holes in the fence for photographs. These decks generally are not as crowded as terminal 2.

Terminal 2 Observation Deck

Terminal 2 has one large observation deck on the 5th floor of the terminal. This deck faces RWY 16L/34R which is most often used for take-off. As well, most of the ANA gates are visible. There are holes in the fence for photographs. This deck is quite popular with families on the weekend as it also offers a nice view of Tokyo Bay.
