Airport • 3710 Matsuhamachō, Higashi Ward, Niigata, 950-0001, Japan
Niigata Airport is a small gateway to Niigata Prefecture, facing the magnificent Japan Sea. However, its small size, combined with its convenience, provides great charm to travelers.
The biggest charm of Niigata Airport lies in its compact design. The distance from the parking lot to the boarding gate is reasonable, and there is no need to walk long corridors. From check-in to baggage inspection and then smoothly to the boarding gate, the flow continues without stress, allowing you to depart on your journey smoothly.
The airport staff are attentive, and you will encounter polite and friendly attitudes at customs and baggage inspection. In the waiting area, you can indulge in the luxurious experience of tasting local Niigata sake and craft beer.
Niigata Airport has good access from the expressway. For a drive from the Tokyo metropolitan area, the transportation cost is about one-fifth of the cost of going via Sendai. Even for arrivals from overseas, avoiding transfers to Narita or Haneda can save a significant amount of time and money.
Niigata Airport is truly a small gem of the region. It should pleasantly stage the beginning and end of your journey, perfectly combining compactness and convenience. We hope you will experience its charm at least once.
