Haneda is the 4th busiest airport in the world servicing approximately 64 million passengers in 2006. Located on Tokyo Bay, it serves 6 carriers including JAL and ANA, as well as 4 low-cost carriers (Skymark Airlines, SkynetAsia, Star Flyer, and Hokkaido International Airlines or AirDo). Extremely spotter-friendly and plenty of traffic, but not much diversity.

If you leave the international terminal and walk down the stairs and turn left to go under the tunnel, on the other side you can walk up the stairs and find yourself next to the taxiway.

Regular Traffic

Japan Airlines and All Nippon Airways both have several hundred flights a day. There are 4 low-cost carriers that also use HND as a base. Lots of 747, 777, 767, MD, and 737, very few Airbus right now.
