Kansai International Airport

Kansai International Airport is the main international airport of Japan's Kansai region, including the cities of Osaka, Kyoto and Kobe. Built on an artificial island at exorbitant cost, it is somewhat underutilized and thus possibly a better entry point than perennially crowded Narita Airport in Tokyo.

The airport has a single terminal, reputedly the longest building in the world at 1.7 kilometers from end to end. Arrivals are on the 1st floor, while departures are from the 4th floor. On arrival, note that not all ATMs accept foreign cards, but the Citibank and post office ATMs do.
