I have a 10 hrs layover in HND and connecting to Manila. From my understanding, you had to go through customs/immigration and they’ll stamp your passport with a day visit if we plan to go out and explore? Did you have to declare that to customs? That you’re going out and coming back for your connecting flight? What did you write in your questionnaire form? And then when going back, you just had to go through departure area/terminal 3 then go through security and customs again? and in customs they will have to stamp your passport again right? Sorry so many questions, this will be our first time. Thanks in advance!
Also, if I happen to put my carry on in the Arrival terminal and then go back there to get it, is there an access or way to go to the Departure terminal from the Arrival terminal?
Yes, once you get stamped you can visit the city. You have to clear customs and immigration. There is a customs form but it can be all done on the "Visit Japan web." You have to pass security and get your passport stamped to ensure you have left Japan. Your last question about a carry on seem to tell me you were actually asking about a checked bag. If you have a checked bag, and you are on a layover, it should go to the final destination. If you carry on a bag on the plane, then you have to rescan (x ray detector) the carry on. If you are visiting the city during your layover and you want to store your carry on, use a coin locker. I hope that helps. - JL
For the initial purchase and initial charging of the card yes, but to recharge the card meaning adding more funds to the card you will need to use cash. This is for a physical card not the app on your phone.
hey, I had the verizon travel pass. Also you can download an offline version of Google maps. You could use a eSIM or SIM from the airport or from electronic stores like Yoshibata or BIC Camera. They can get you set up. The staff at the airport can do the same. You could also use a pocket wifi but it will drain fast. Most places to have free hot spots to use but it can be slow. I hope that helps. - JL
