Tourism to Japan has been booming since the restrictions on travel there during the pandemic were lifted.
This boom has been fed in part by the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Japanese yen.
According to Travel + Leisure, travel to Japan will be getting easier this summer.
They posted:
Japan Airlines is dramatically increasing flight connections to the U.S. for the summer, which means getting to Japan will be easier than ever.
Starting May 31, 2025, Japan Airlines will launch a direct flight connecting Tokyo Narita International Airport (NRT) to Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD). This will be a codeshare flight with Oneworld Alliance partner American Airlines. Tickets go on sale on February 12, and the flight is expected to last roughly 12 hours.
To help meet demand between Japan and North America, Japan Airlines is ramping up connectivity to several West Coast hubs throughout the summer:
- Tokyo Narita (NRT) to San Diego (SAN): Daily from March 30 to October 25
- Osaka (KIX) to Los Angeles (LAX): Daily from July 18 to October 25
- Osaka (KIX) to Honolulu (HNL): Daily from July 18 to October 25
- Nagoya (NGO) to Honolulu (HNL): Daily from July 18 to October 15
- Tokyo Narita (NRT) to Honolulu (HNL): Twice-daily during July
