It's divided into main terminal one and terminal two of LCC exclusive use and is the airport of Kansai maximum level the domestic and abroad traveler who visits Osaka and Kyoto as well as the traveler who takes a trip to foreign countries use. Even a nickname as "KIKKUSU" is enjoying from an abbreviation as "Kansai International Airport (A can is eaten.)" and the airport code as "KIX".

A terminal one building is directly connected with Kansaikuko Station. On the other hand, terminal two is located in the place from which it's about 4 km away, and the free shuttle bus which departs from and arrives at commercial Property which neighbors terminal one "Aero plaza" is used in case of movement.

Kansai International Airport view holes "the sky view" juxtapose in the site in Kansai International Airport. The "sky museum" which can be learned and enjoyed about "Sky Deck", the airport and the airplane which can be enjoyed can get a bird's-eye view of a runway in 5 story of building, and the state of the taking off and landing of an airplane is proximate, and an intolerable spot.

In March, 2025, ground opening! The "terminal one building" which became more convenient and comfortable

A terminal one building does the large-scale renovation construction which becomes first since opening in 1994, and a new domestic flight area, the duty-free shop of the walk-through type where a new international flight embarkation area opens and is large in scale in December, 2023 and the commercial area 4 kinds of atmosphere can enjoy are established in October, 2022. Establishment in an international flight sharing lounge and a security check place were expanded, and ground opening was welcomed with that the main function will be completed on March 27, 2025.

An important point of a renovation switches a domestic flight and an international flight round, and is that the capacity of the international flight was raised substantially.

Since putting it at the international flight security check place, concentration and the procedure which is to expand and introduce more latest smart lanes which can be checked without taking a PC and a drink out, into the time of baggage inspection, is more comfortable and is smooth materialize.

A lounge here and there in the airport is concentrated in 1 point and an international flight sharing lounge is opened in the 3rd floor. Wider space was achieved by efficiency in space, and you could spend now time to the flight comfortably.

If I look for a gift of Japanese-Western style cake by which Japan takes pride, it's to "TASTE OF KANSAI Travel diary".
A store very popular with the visit to Japan foreigners who buy a gift at the end of travel. It's ideal for the gift search appreciated overseas for the Japanese who leaves the country, too. The Confections about which I worried may probably be made an attendant of a journey.

It's brown ka of "maare Blanche" which keeps a main store in Kyoto Kitayama where it can also be said a pronoun of a capital gift first.
Uji of a city Ujicha green tea such as Shirakawa's careful selection tea-leaf is used. A milk sense bakes it up in good RANGUDOSHA of the mouth dissolution, and is a masterpiece around abundant white chocolate.

An aisle is arranged so that it may be sewn between the department, and it's designed so that it may be gone through casually while looking at goods of duty-free store.

There is more event space at each place in the store, and introduction of a new product and the display put together in the season are also developed.

To "terminal two building" of LCC (low-cost carrier) exclusive use.

Terminal two is LCC exclusive use and is divided into a building of a domestic flight and an international flight. They're CHEJU Airlines and Chinese Spring Airlines in Peach (peach and ABIESHON) and South Korea to navigate an international flight. ※ Current as of March, 2025

I advance towards a ticket gate of Kansaikuko Station from the 2nd floor of the terminal one building and take a bus from free shuttle bus boarding point of the 1st floor of commercial Property "Aero plaza" of direct connection to go from terminal one to terminal two. Traveling time is about 10 minutes. It's different depending on time, but it's divided in two-it's every 7 minutes and it's moving.

It's also a wonderful point that there is a shopping area of "the walk-through type" when security check and embarkation medical examination are finished after checking in by an international flight. Even just before taking an airplane, shopping can be enjoyed at a duty-free shop and the shop to which a gift is sold.

It's satisfied with charm of an airplane by "Sky Deck" and "the sky museum".

If there is time to a flight, it's also recommended to visit "Kansai International Airport view Horace Kay view" of the free entrance in the site in Kansai International Airport. There even is sky view in the location of about 5 minutes by curtesy transportation bus from terminal one.

"Kansai International Airport view Horace Kay view" is from 2 buildings, there is "Sky Deck" where you can get a bird's-eye view of a runway in 4, the 5th floor and the 5th floor of the entrance hall in a main hole.

It's possible to be an intolerable view spot in an airplane lover and look at the whole view of the Kansai International Airport terminal one and the form of the powerful airplane that I'm taking off and landing one after another nearby.

A tour and learning Property of Experience type which can be learned happily about Kansai International Airport and an airplane "the sky museum" are established attached to the 3rd floor of the main hole.

At the inside, a highlight, "terminal building of 1/72 and traveler apron model". It's the interesting display which can think various work at the airport to look at Kansai International Airport terminal one carefully by the huge model reproduced precisely.

The display by which the one which is also recommended as a photography spot is "cockpit". The work by which the flight simulators which reproduced a cockpit of the size of original of "Boeing 777" are airline Pilot as well as the picture which are here and are full of presence, pseudo-Experience, can.

If I take a rest, it's to a cafe lounge "NODOKA".

I have various types of seats the cafe type seat, a mat seat and a reclining seat and also equip well with a single and a shower room including a lawn area. I enjoy a drink and light meal and take a nap in between travel and the waiting time of the airplane, and it's the spot loosed freely.

"Airport limousine bus" is convenient for Direction to Kansai International Airport.

The "airport limousine bus" which ties a main terminal for Keihanshin (Osaka, Hyogo and Kyoto) and Shikoku is convenient to Kansai International Airport. When I take it, there are no transfers to the airport, smoothly, Direction, can, you can leave the top and the baggage in a trunk room and take it, and can sit down and have time comfortably in the car. Of course, it also moves to a metropolis from the airport. A tied shuttle bus also runs between the airport and a Expo site for Osaka and time frame of Kansai expo (April 13, 2025-October 13) (perfect reservation system).

To previous Tomari and "OMO Kansai Airport by Hoshino Resorts" where Tomari is outstanding in Direction and comfortable also.

If previous Tomari and back Tomari are spent comfortably, Direction recommends outstanding "OMO Kansai Airport" from Kansai International Airport. A free shuttle bus also runs to Kansai International Airport in good location of the "Rinku Town Station" vanity for 1 minute on foot in 1 station from Kansai International Airport. Tension can spend substantial time to go up after the front to which I go on a trip as well as the convenient function as the Airport-Hotel are also returning on the concept of "empty Hypomesus pretiosus japonicus and fan time".

I equip inside of the building well with 6 kinds of the bathroom and sauna where you can relax around a flight. There are also an indoor bathroom with rich kind and Public hot spring where sea breeze was equipped with snug half Outdoor hot spring and dry sauna. The one recommended in particular is the gas bath. Well, it's petite in several minutes with a bubble to a surface, petite and SHUWASHUWA, a stimulus of gas can be sensed, and there is exhilarating feeling.

A meal is to OMO Dining on the 21st floor. Breakfast is buffet, and dinner is a cafeteria style, and a meal can be enjoyed. It's available from 6:00 in the morning, so breakfast can be charged to an early time flight tightly.

Procedures in check-in time and check-out time introduces an automatic terminal, and is also smooth. You change busy time before boarding at time when I relaxed comfortably. "Empty Hypomesus pretiosus japonicus" how about spending some pleasant time at a comfortable hotel?

From a gourmet and a shopping to a tour, Experience and a rest. "Kansai International Airport" where the entertainment element by which previous taking can also enjoy time of the boarding waiting is filling. An international flight commercial area in terminal one is expanded in summer of 2026, and redesign is planning to meet completion at last.
