Kansai International Airport

After almost fours of riding the Cebu Pacific plane, finally we landed in Japan. We landed at the Kansai International Airport in Japan. It is an international airport located on an artificial island in the middle of Osaka Bay, 38 km (24 mi) southwest of Ōsaka Station, off the shore of the cities of Sennan and Izumisano and the town of Tajiri in Osaka Prefecture, Japan. It is newer than the Osaka International Airport, which is quite closer to the city and now handles only domestic flights. It was ranked 4th overall in the Airport of the Year 2006 awards named by Skytrax, after Singapore Changi Airport, Hong Kong International Airport and Munich Airport. The airport serves as an international hub for All Nippon Airways, Japan Airlines, and Nippon Cargo Airlines.
