133 Tokyo Haneda Airport Statistics for 2026
Tokyo Haneda Airport (HND) handled 91,542,534 passengers in calendar year 2025 on the count of Japan's transport ministry, MLIT, the most of any airport in Japan and the highest total in MLIT's series from 2010. On ACI World's 2025 ranking, which uses its own count, Haneda was the third busiest airport in the world.
Haneda handled 68,827,947 passengers from January to September 2026 on MLIT's figures, which are preliminary from April. International traffic has grown much faster than domestic traffic since 2010, and in 2025 more of Haneda's cargo was international than domestic.
This page gathers the figures on Haneda in one place: passengers by calendar and fiscal year, 2026 traffic, busy months, the pandemic, rankings in Japan and the world, flights, cargo, border crossings, the new flight routes, slots, the January 2024 runway collision, runways, shops and the monorail. Every number links to the body that published it, with the date. MLIT's passenger counts, ACI World's ranking, the Ministry of Justice's immigration counts and Japan Airport Terminal's figures measure different things, so each figure says whose it is and they are not added or charted together. Japan's fiscal year runs from April to March, and each figure says whether it covers a calendar year or a fiscal year.

- In calendar 2025, 742,846 tonnes of Haneda's cargo was international and 476,065 tonnes domestic. (MLIT (airport statistics by calendar year, 2016-2025), Aug 2026)
- Haneda handled 1,178,440 tonnes of cargo in calendar 2024 and 1,046,382 tonnes in calendar 2023. (MLIT (airport statistics by calendar year, 2016-2025), Aug 2026)
- Cargo reached 1,284,681 tonnes in calendar 2017, the highest in MLIT's series from 2010, and 1,205,676 tonnes in calendar 2019. (MLIT (airport statistics by calendar year, 2016-2025), Aug 2026)
- Haneda handled 828,056 tonnes of cargo in calendar 2021 and 796,508 tonnes in calendar 2022. (MLIT (airport statistics by calendar year, 2016-2025), Aug 2026)
- International cargo grew from 35,722 tonnes in calendar 2010 to 332,065 tonnes in calendar 2015. (MLIT (airport statistics by calendar year, 2010-2019), Sep 2024)
- December 2025 was Haneda's biggest cargo month of calendar 2025, at 113,759 tonnes, while international cargo was highest in July 2025, at 66,546 tonnes. (MLIT (airport management statistics 2025), Aug 2026)
- From January to September 2026 Haneda handled 923,770,279 kg of cargo on preliminary figures, 578,946,283 kg international and 344,823,996 kg domestic. (MLIT Tokyo Civil Aviation Bureau (2026 monthly summary), Nov 2026)
- Haneda handled 60,922,553 kg of mail in calendar 2025, the most of any airport in Japan. (MLIT (2025 airport rankings), Aug 2026)
- Mail at Haneda totalled 93,841,408 kg in calendar 2018 and 67,391,407 kg in calendar 2024. (MLIT (airport statistics by calendar year, 2016-2025), Aug 2026)
- In calendar 2010 Haneda handled 57,652,393 kg of mail. (MLIT (airport statistics by calendar year, 2010-2019), Sep 2024)
MLIT counts cargo loaded and unloaded, in tonnes, and reports mail separately, in kilograms. ACI World's cargo figures include mail, so they are not used or compared here. The Tokyo Civil Aviation Bureau's 2026 figures are preliminary, in kilograms, and its summary does not define cargo, so they are not compared with the annual tonnes.
How many foreign nationals enter Japan through Haneda?
More than seven million foreign nationals entered Japan through Haneda in calendar 2025, on the Ministry of Justice's immigration statistics. Narita handles more border crossings, but the count at Haneda rose in 2025.
- Foreign nationals 7,144,009
- Japanese nationals 4,590,156
- Status of Forces Agreement personnel 96,416
- In calendar 2025, 7,018,374 foreign nationals left Japan through Haneda. (Ministry of Justice (immigration statistics 2025), Jul 2026)
- In calendar 2025, 4,590,156 Japanese nationals returned to Japan through Haneda and 4,656,262 departed through it. (Ministry of Justice (immigration statistics 2025), Jul 2026)
- Immigration recorded 23,598,123 entries and departures at Haneda in calendar 2025. (Ministry of Justice (immigration statistics 2025), Jul 2026)
- In calendar 2024, 6,258,927 foreign nationals entered Japan through Haneda, and immigration recorded 21,129,643 entries and departures there. (Ministry of Justice (immigration statistics 2024), 2025)
- Narita recorded 32,887,393 entries and departures in calendar 2025, and 11,923,212 foreign nationals entered Japan through it. (Ministry of Justice (immigration statistics 2025), Jul 2026)
- Across all ports, 42,430,930 foreign nationals entered Japan in calendar 2025. (Ministry of Justice (immigration statistics 2025), Jul 2026)
These are Ministry of Justice counts of people crossing Japan's border at Haneda, by calendar year. Foreign nationals entering Japan include residents returning from abroad, so they are not visitor arrivals, and transit passengers who do not pass immigration are not counted. They are not added to or compared with MLIT's passenger figures.
How are Haneda's new flight routes over central Tokyo used?
MLIT opened new flight routes over central Tokyo in March 2020 to raise Haneda's international capacity. Arrivals use the routes over central Tokyo in the afternoon when the wind blows from the south, a new north-wind departure route runs from runway C, and MLIT publishes monthly counts of the flights that use them.

| Period | Value |
|---|---|
| Apr 2026 | 2,749 |
| May 2026 | 2,291 |
| Jun 2026 | 2,836 |
- The new flight routes began on 29 March 2020 and raised Haneda's international capacity by about 40,000 take-offs and landings a year, MLIT says. (MLIT (Tokyo airports capacity briefing), Apr 2025)
- On an annual average Haneda operates in south-wind mode about 40% of the time, MLIT says; on those days the new routes over central Tokyo are used from 15:00 to 19:00, effectively about three hours once switchover time is included. (MLIT (Tokyo airports capacity briefing), Apr 2025)
- In April 2026, 2,749 departures used the new north-wind route from runway C. (MLIT (new flight routes report, Oct 2026), Oct 2026)
- On south-wind days in April 2026, 594 aircraft landed on runway A and 1,180 on runway C using the new approaches, and 847 departed from runway B. (MLIT (new flight routes report, Oct 2026), Oct 2026)
- In May 2026 the new routes carried 2,291 north-wind departures from runway C, 781 landings on runway A, 1,597 landings on runway C and 1,121 departures from runway B. (MLIT (new flight routes report, Oct 2026), Oct 2026)
- June 2026 brought 2,836 north-wind departures from runway C, 607 and 1,271 new-route landings on runways A and C, and 885 departures from runway B. (MLIT (new flight routes report, Oct 2026), Oct 2026)
- In 2019, before the new routes, MLIT put Haneda's annual slot capacity at 447,000 take-offs and landings. (MLIT (Haneda slot briefing, 2019), Nov 2019)
Counts cover only flights using the new-route procedures, from MLIT's regular operation reports. Slot capacity is the number of take-offs and landings allowed a year, not flights operated, and the 2019 figure predates the 2020 increase.
Which airlines hold Haneda's slots?
Japan Airlines and ANA hold most of Haneda's domestic slots under MLIT's allocation, and MLIT decided in 2024 to keep that allocation from the summer 2025 schedule. The extra daytime international slots added in 2020 were split equally between Japanese and foreign airlines.
- Under MLIT's 2019 reallocation of domestic slots, Japan Airlines holds 181.5 daily slots, 3 fewer than before, and ANA 170.5, 1 fewer. (MLIT (Haneda slot briefing, 2019), Nov 2019)
- Skymark holds 37 daily domestic slots (1 more), Solaseed Air 25, Air Do 23 and StarFlyer 23. (MLIT (Haneda slot briefing, 2019), Nov 2019)
- The reallocation added 2 policy-contest slots, for 5 in all, and created 3 slots for new entrants. (MLIT (Haneda slot briefing, 2019), Nov 2019)
- Haneda had domestic scheduled flights to 48 cities, 498.6 flights a day, in the February 2020 timetable, and MLIT said about 60% of domestic air passenger journeys in Japan used Haneda. (MLIT (Haneda slot briefing, 2019), Nov 2019)
- MLIT decided in June 2024 to keep the existing domestic slot allocation from the summer 2025 schedule, which began on 30 March 2025, and to base the next reallocation on airlines' performance from fiscal 2023 to fiscal 2027. (MLIT (domestic slot decision, 2024), Jun 2024)
- For the 2020 increase in daytime international slots MLIT allocated 50 daily slots, 25 to Japanese airlines and 25 to foreign airlines. (MLIT (2020 international slot allocation), Aug 2019)
- Routes to the United States received 12 daily slots for Japanese airlines and 12 for foreign airlines, and China 4 and 4; of the Japanese airlines' share, ANA received 13.5 a day and Japan Airlines 11.5. (MLIT (2020 international slot allocation), Aug 2019)
- Russia and Australia received 2 daily slots each for Japanese and for foreign airlines, and India, Italy, Turkey, Finland and Scandinavia 1 each. (MLIT (2020 international slot allocation), Aug 2019)
Slot figures are MLIT's allocations of daily slots for scheduled flights, not flights operated. The domestic shares date from MLIT's 2019 reallocation. The share of domestic journeys is MLIT's 2019 statement about passenger flows, not airport throughput.
What happened in the January 2024 runway collision at Haneda?
On 2 January 2024 a Japan Airlines aircraft landing at Haneda collided with a Japan Coast Guard aircraft on runway C. The figures here come only from the Japan Transport Safety Board, whose published reports are progress reports, not final findings.
- The collision happened at about 17:47 on 2 January 2024, when Japan Airlines Airbus A350-900 JA13XJ, landing on runway 34R (runway C), collided with Japan Coast Guard DHC-8-315 JA722A, which was stopped on the runway. (Japan Transport Safety Board (first progress report), Dec 2024)
- There were 379 people aboard the Japan Airlines aircraft, 12 crew including the captain and 367 passengers, and 6 aboard the Coast Guard aircraft. (Japan Transport Safety Board (first progress report), Dec 2024)
- Five of the six Coast Guard crew died and the Coast Guard captain was seriously injured, and both aircraft were destroyed. (Japan Transport Safety Board (second progress report), Dec 2025)
- Everyone on the Japan Airlines aircraft evacuated; 1 passenger was seriously injured, 4 were slightly injured and 12 were examined by doctors for feeling unwell. (Japan Transport Safety Board (second progress report), Dec 2025)
- The first progress report described three overlapping factors: the Coast Guard aircraft believed it had permission to enter the runway; the tower controller did not recognise that it was stopped on the runway, although a runway-occupancy alert had activated; and the Japan Airlines crew did not see it until just before the collision. (Japan Transport Safety Board (first progress report), Dec 2024)
Figures come from the Japan Transport Safety Board's progress reports of December 2024 and December 2025. They are interim findings that JTSB says may be revised, and its investigations are not intended to apportion blame.
How big is Haneda, and how busy are its shops and rail link?
Haneda has four runways on about 1,500 hectares, and it supplies more aviation fuel than any other airport in Japan. Its duty-free sales slipped in fiscal 2025, and Tokyo Monorail ridership fell sharply after fiscal 2019.
- Haneda covers 1,515 hectares and has four runways: A, 3,000 m by 60 m; B, 2,500 m; C, 3,360 m; and D, 2,500 m by 60 m. (Japan Airport Terminal (results presentation, May 2026), May 2026)
- Runway D opened in October 2010, Haneda operates 24 hours a day, and MLIT gave the airport's area as 1,516 hectares in 2019. (MLIT (Haneda slot briefing, 2019), Nov 2019)
- Haneda supplied 4,418,823 kilolitres of aviation fuel in calendar 2025, 12,107 kilolitres a day, the most in Japan; Narita supplied 3,545,814 kilolitres. (MLIT (2025 airport rankings), Aug 2026)
- 7.07 million international passengers made duty-free purchases at Haneda in fiscal 2025, a purchase rate of 28.8%, down from 29.5% in fiscal 2024. (Japan Airport Terminal (results presentation, May 2026), May 2026)
- Average spend per duty-free purchaser was ¥15,100 in fiscal 2025, down from ¥16,000, and duty-free sales were ¥108.5 billion in fiscal 2024. (Japan Airport Terminal (results presentation, May 2026), May 2026)
- Tokyo Monorail, which runs 17.8 km with 11 stations from Hamamatsucho to Haneda Airport Terminal 2, carried about 49.9 million passengers in fiscal 2018 and 50.06 million in fiscal 2019. (MLIT (Tokyo Monorail fare review), May 2023)
- Monorail ridership fell to 24.11 million in fiscal 2020 and 25.28 million in fiscal 2021; MLIT's review gives Keikyu's October 2019 cut to its airport-line fare surcharge and the pandemic as the reasons. (MLIT (Tokyo Monorail fare review), May 2023)
Duty-free figures are Japan Airport Terminal's, in yen, for the fiscal year from April to March; the purchase rate is its share of international passengers who bought something. Monorail figures count passengers on the whole line, including trips that do not involve the airport, by fiscal year. Japan Airport Terminal gives the airport's area as 1,515 hectares and MLIT's 2019 briefing as 1,516.

Methodology and sources
Figures come from MLIT's airport management statistics, airport rankings and monthly summaries, its briefings and reports on capacity, slots, the new flight routes and the Tokyo Monorail; from ACI World's airport rankings and IATA's country market figures; from the Ministry of Justice's immigration statistics by port; from Japan Airport Terminal's May 2026 results presentation; and from the Japan Transport Safety Board's progress reports. Each figure links to the file or report that carries it, with the date, and MLIT figures are labelled by file and by calendar or fiscal year. MLIT's passenger count is the main series. ACI World's count is used only with its ranking, Japan Airport Terminal's terminal totals, which count transit passengers twice, are left out, and immigration counts are not treated as passengers or visitor arrivals. Calendar years and April to March fiscal years are labelled on every figure. Values read off slide charts and changes not stated by the source are left out. The page is reviewed monthly and the date is shown at the top.
