Why Choose Private Jet Hire to Tokyo?
Travelling to Japan is an exciting experience, but long-haul commercial flights can involve busy airports, lengthy check-in procedures, and inflexible departure times.
Private aviation offers a completely different way to travel.
Flying by private jet to Tokyo allows you to depart according to your own schedule, enjoy complete privacy onboard, and avoid much of the congestion associated with commercial air travel.
Whether you're travelling for business or leisure, private aviation allows you to focus on enjoying your journey rather than navigating airport queues.
Tokyo is served by two major international airports: Haneda Airport (HND) and Narita International Airport (NRT).
Haneda is located much closer to the city centre, making it a popular choice for business travellers who want to minimise transfer times after landing. Narita, meanwhile, handles a significant number of international flights and also offers excellent facilities for private aviation.
Depending on your itinerary, aircraft, and operational requirements, our team will recommend the most suitable airport for your journey. From Tokyo, private aircraft can also continue to destinations throughout Japan, including Osaka, Sapporo, Fukuoka, Okinawa, and regional airports.
Business Travel to Japan
Japan remains one of Australia's most important trading partners, with Tokyo acting as the country's financial, political, and commercial centre.
Private jet hire is an increasingly popular option for executives travelling to Tokyo because it offers greater flexibility when attending meetings, conferences, and international events.
- Travel according to meeting schedules
- Maintain privacy during confidential discussions
- Reduce downtime between flights
- Arrange multi-city itineraries
- Maximise productivity throughout the journey
Tokyo is equally renowned as a world-class leisure destination.
Visitors can explore historic temples, Michelin-starred restaurants, luxury shopping districts, beautiful parks, and vibrant entertainment areas, all within one of the world's safest and most fascinating cities.
Throughout the year, Tokyo attracts visitors for events such as the cherry blossom season in spring, autumn foliage, international sporting events, cultural festivals, and world-famous cuisine.
Many travellers also use Tokyo as the starting point for exploring the rest of Japan, from the ski resorts of Hokkaido to the historic temples of Kyoto and the beaches of Okinawa.

Flying private to Tokyo: what to know
Tokyo is both a business destination and, for many Australians, a winter-sports gateway: Hokkaido and Nagano ski resorts are within a short onward flight or transfer. Corporate and delegation travel is the other main reason to fly private.
At nine to ten hours from the east coast of Australia, Tokyo is a heavy-jet sector. We advise on aircraft, airport choice and the permits that apply.
