Aso Kumamoto Airport Christmas 2024
If you look closely, you will see that the bamboo lantern Christmas tree is carved into the shape of an airplane, which is a perfect airport-like tree, so be sure to check it out. Christmas trees were also decorated in front of the domestic JAL and ANA counters, giving you a sense of winter travel. At the outdoor "Sora Yoka Park," there is a Kumamon object and you can see the illuminations at sunset. Be sure to take a stroll around Kumamoto Airport.

Kumamoto Airport
#Sakura2024 #Kumamoto #Japan
Kumamoto Airport is a small airport in Kyushu with international flights. The first floor is the arrival/check-in area/bus station, the 4th floor is the observation deck, and the 3rd floor is the domestic/international flight security/boarding area. The duty-free shop area for international flights is very small, with not many shopping options and no restaurants. What is surprising is that there are hot and cold water dispensers. International passengers can go shopping/dining in the domestic terminal area after passing through international security, but they must arrive 60 minutes before the departure to go through immigration. If you do not check-in and go through security early in the morning, you cannot visit the domestic terminal area (but you can see the shopping area in the 4th floor corridor).

Kumamoto Airport Observation Deck
#Cherry Blossoms2024 #Kumamoto #Japan #Airport
Located on the 4th floor of Kumamoto Aso Airport, it can be reached by lift or stairs, before a few exhibitions, then out of the open-air viewing area. There are sparse flights at Kumamoto Airport. When we arrived, we could only see one solaed plane on the tarmac in the whole airport

Unico Croquette at Josaien in Kumamoto Castle, Kumamoto
Address: Directly in front of the entrance to Josaien, Kumamoto Castle
Atmosphere/Facilities: Lively with a line
Recommended point: Unico Croquette
Average price: 500 yen
Hello 😃
This time, the Unico Croquette at Josaien looked so delicious that I lined up to get one 🤩
It was right in front of the entrance to Josaien, so it was really noticeable 😆
The sea urchins are apparently caught in Amakusa
It was my first time eating Unico Croquette
It was refreshing!
I wonder if I could have eaten another 10 😏 lol
The batter was crispy but thin
and the filling was packed in tightly!
The rice in Kumamoto is delicious 😋
Please give it a try!

🇯🇵Kumamon's City
#MarchTravelSupportEvent
I traveled from Gimhae to Kumamoto on Eastar Jet! I was a little sad to hear that it was going to rain, but when I arrived, it was almost completely dry, which was really nice. Kumamoto Airport was the smallest airport I went to! It was a place where the cute Kumamon greeted me from the entrance.

🇯🇵A small airport with 3 floors
#MarchTravelSupportEvent
Because it's a small city airport, it's very small in size and feels smaller than a bus terminal or train station in Korea. Also, Kumamoto Airport has a set time to enter the departure hall, so I recommend not going too early! There's not much to do inside the airport either, so time really doesn't pass!

I traveled from Gimhae to Kumamoto on Eastar Jet! I was a little sad to hear that it was going to rain, but it was really nice because it barely rained when I arrived. Kumamoto Airport was the smallest airport I went to! Maybe because it was small, immigration took a while.

🇯🇵Airport that focuses on domestic flights
#MarchTravelSupportEvent
Kumamoto Airport is more focused on domestic flights, so the international flights are small and there isn't much to see. Also, Kumamoto Airport has a set time to enter the departure hall, so I recommend not going too early! There isn't much to do inside the airport either, so time really doesn't pass!

🇯🇵It's neat
#MarchTravelSupportEvent
The Kumamoto Airport I visited this time is one of the cleanest airports I've ever visited. You should visit it next time. You'll be surprised at how clean it is! And the guide signs are all well-made, so you can go without a plan.

🇯🇵Kumamoto Airport Photo Zone
#MarchTravelSupportEvent
I went to Kumamoto Airport. I arrived too early when I was returning to Korea, so I looked around the area. When I came out through the side exit, there was a photo zone where I could take a picture with Kumamon! I grabbed a person passing by and took a picture! Kumamoto is the best.

🇯🇵1000 Yen of Happiness!

When you arrive at Kumamoto Airport, take Exit C and take the bus from No. 3 to Sakuramachi Bus Terminal! I also took the bus this time. It was nice to be able to travel to the city center comfortably for just 1,000 yen! Everyone, please use the airport bus.

When you arrive at Kumamoto Airport, exit through Exit C and take the bus from No. 3 to Sakuramachi Bus Terminal! I will slowly explain how to reserve a bus starting from the next post! There is a bus every hour, so there is no need to rush!

🇯🇵Finally, where to buy souvenirs
#MarchTravelSupportEvent
Kumamoto Airport was a newly built airport, so it was a really clean airport! I've been traveling a lot recently, so I visit the airport often, and this was the best among them! I recommend it as a good place to buy souvenirs before returning to Korea👍🏻

🇯🇵A very clean airport

Kumamoto Airport was a newly built airport, so it was a really clean airport! I've been traveling a lot recently and visiting the airport often, and this was definitely the best among them. The duty-free shop was small, so it was a shame, but it was nice to have Royce chocolate!

🇯🇵Kumamoto Airport Departure Hall
#MarchTravelSupportEvent
Kumamoto Airport was recently rebuilt, so the exterior and interior were really clean. It was nice that all the departure gates were in one place. There was also a good space to rest, and above all, Kumamoto Airport was clean and nice.

A wide variety of food and souvenirs! The newly renovated Aso Kumamoto Airport ✈️
【Kumamoto Prefecture / #CoffeeCorridor #AsoKumamotoAirport】
The cafe Coffee Corridor, which I fell in love with in Kumamoto, has opened in the newly renovated Kumamoto Airport☕️✨
It's a store affiliated with Kusasenri Coffee Roastery🎠
It's great to have coffee bean souvenirs at the airport so you don't forget to buy them!
I bought a cafe latte to drink on the plane🫶
The airport was renovated in 2023, and the area after security was so well-equipped that it was super fun!! 💖
The souvenir shops were also very well-equipped, and best of all, there was an eat-in area right in front of the boarding gate, where you could eat Kumamoto's specialty red beef bowl and Kumamoto ramen, and of course you could drink Coffee Corridor coffee, so it was nice to be able to enjoy it right up until the last minute before boarding!! !

Comprehensive Renovation of Aso Kumamoto Airport
Kumamoto Airport (IATA code: KMJ), officially known as Aso Kumamoto Airport, is located in Kikuyo Town, Kikuchi District, Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan. This airport is one of the major aviation hubs in the Kyushu region, connecting several major cities in Japan as well as some international destinations. With its convenient transportation and high-quality services, Kumamoto Airport has become the preferred choice for travelers entering and leaving the Kumamoto area.
The design of Kumamoto Airport underwent a comprehensive renovation in March 2023, which not only modernized the airport facilities but also enhanced passenger comfort and convenience. Upon entering Kumamoto Airport, visitors are greeted by warm wooden tones and stylish designs. The exterior of the terminal features clean and elegant lines, utilizing a large amount of glass and steel structures to create a bright and transparent space. The interior decor focuses on details, using a lot of wood and natural elements to reflect the natural scenery and cultural characteristics of the Kumamoto area. The interior design of the airport also considers passenger convenience, with multiple rest areas and commercial facilities providing a comfortable waiting environment for travelers.
There are several must-visit spots within Kumamoto Airport. First is the observation deck inside the terminal, offering an excellent vantage point for travelers to watch planes take off and land up close, making it a perfect spot for aviation enthusiasts. Secondly, the 'Kumamon' themed area within the airport is also a must-see, showcasing various adorable images of Kumamoto Prefecture's mascot 'Kumamon,' making it a great place for photo opportunities. Lastly, the various art installations and exhibitions within the airport, such as displays of works by local artists, provide travelers with a rich cultural experience.

Kumamoto Airport
First time there after the newly renovated Kumamoto Airport. Inland/international lines are check-in on the same floor. After check-in on the inland line/international line you can go to the 3rd floor, after going through customs inspection, if you have time you can visit the inland line first, you can have a lot of things to buy (local specialty), and there are restaurants where you can eat before boarding. *Remember to be sure to go through customs baggage check again 60 minutes before the international departure to reach the international terminal. There are some duty-free items and small souvenirs available for purchase in the international line terminal.
