ANA to open new Haneda satellite terminal Dec. 10

All Nippon Airways is scheduled to begin using a new satellite terminal at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport from Dec. 10. The new facility will be a satellite to Terminal 2 and will have three gates numbered 46-48. To reach the satellite terminal, passengers will have to take a dedicated connection bus from Terminal 2. ANA said the bus trip will take about 3 min., with buses departing from each end every 5 min., so the process could take up to 10 min., including wait times. ANA is advising domestic passengers using satellite gates to proceed through security 20 minutes prior to departure time, which will be the same for other gates at Terminal 2. The carrier announced in August that it will add 5 min. to the security check cut-off time for domestic passengers in Terminal 2. Passengers currently need to go through security checkpoints at least 15 min. before their flights, but from Dec. 1 they will need 20 min. <br/>
