Kansai Airport Terminals

Osaka Kansai International Airport is the main international airport serving the Osaka Prefecture. 

Osaka Kansai Airport has two terminals and the Aeroplaza facilities. 

Osaka Kansai International Airport was named after the name of the region which Osaka is the designated city.

Transfer between terminals

Passengers can move between the Central Terminal and the two wings of Osaka Kansai Airport by the Wing Shuttle, a free and driverless line which connects the terminal building and the piers located along the two wings. These cars operate every 2 minutes.

On both wings, North Wing and South Wing, there is a Shuttle Station, a Midway Station and a Terminal Station, which connects with different boarding gates. 

Unfortunately, Terminal 2 is not directly connected to Terminal 1 nor Kansai Airport Station. Free shuttle buses are available to link both terminals and also railway and ferry stations. 

Additionally, you can walk between terminals through the KIX Sora Park, an adjacent park to Terminal 2. 

Terminal 1

Kansai Terminal 1 hosts both domestic and international flights. It is a four-level building with an energy system which takes advantage of the airflow thanks to the curvature of the ceiling.
