Tokyo International Airport

Tokyo International Airport (東京国際空港) is an international airport in the ward of Ota in Tokyo, Japan. It is more commonly known as Haneda Airport (羽田空港). The airport has the nickname, "Big Bird". Its IATA airport code is HND.

By passenger throughput, Haneda is the busiest airport in Asia and the fifth-busiest airport in the world, handling 59 million passengers annually.

Haneda handled most of Tokyo's air traffic until the opening of New Tokyo International Airport: it now handles domestic flights exclusively, with the exception of daily China Airlines flights to Taipei and Honolulu, Hawaii.

Tokyo International Airport is classified as First class airport in Japan.

On July 24, 1999, All Nippon Airways Flight 61, which was flying from Tokyo International Airport to New Chitose Airport in Chitose (near Sapporo) was hijacked shortly after takeoff. The hijacker killed the pilot before he was subdued. The Boeing 747 landed safely.
