Narita Airport extended operation time by 2 hours due to landing restrictions October 13 20:29
In preparation for Typhoon No. 19, landing restrictions were made from 12th to 13th, and arrival of flights from overseas has been greatly delayed at Narita Airport. For this reason, the airport company has decided to extend the operating hours of the airport by 2 hours.
In preparation for Typhoon No. 19, the arrival of flights from overseas was significantly delayed at Narita Airport due to the landing restrictions that were implemented from the 12th to the 13th morning.
The airport company decided to extend the airport's operating hours to 1am on the 14th, two hours longer than usual, in an attempt to secure time for the arrival of additional flights.
This means that this is a pre-arranged measure with local authorities only in case of an emergency.
On the other hand, nearly 400 flights that were supposed to take off and land on Narita on 13th were canceled due to the fact that the aircraft could not keep up because the aircraft was evacuated to another airport.
As a result, the airport counters were crowded with people trying to change their flight.
A woman in her 20s who visited Japan on a sightseeing trip from France said, “I was able to change my flight from Asu Haneda to China via China. Today I will stay at a hotel in Tokyo.” .
