About this corridor

Flying from Miami International

Miami International is American Airlines' largest hub for Latin American flying — over 60% of all US-to-Latin America traffic routes through here. Three terminals N, S and CW are connected by the MIA Mover people mover, with Metrorail Orange Line and Tri-Rail commuter trains both running from the airport to downtown and Fort Lauderdale. International long-haul east-coast schedules favour MIA over JFK; Caribbean and Latin connections are the deepest of any US airport.

Arriving in Tokyo

Tokyo Narita International is 60 km east of central Tokyo, with the Narita Express train reaching Tokyo Station in 53 minutes for ¥3,070. ANA, Japan Airlines, United, Delta and American operate the US-Tokyo corridor; Haneda (HND) increasingly handles new US-Tokyo capacity for shorter ground transfers. Cherry blossom season (late March–early April) is peak demand; January and August are the cheapest from US bases.
