What HND to ITM looks like
The HND to ITM sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Tokyo HND to Osaka ITM is a short sector of 404 km by great circle, flown nonstop 33.9 times a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 404 km, 720 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 1h 06m.
Tokyo HND is a large airport in the network held here, 105 scheduled destinations and 738.1 departures a day. Osaka ITM has 26 destinations and 201 departures a day.
Tokyo carries about 3.7 times the departures of Osaka, so a courier who has to be rebooked has far more to work with at one end of this pair than at the other.
Tokyo and Osaka keep the same clock all year, so the arrival time is the departure time plus the block and nothing else.
The pair sits inside Asia Pacific, a corridor where the site already publishes 16 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on HND to ITM from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| HND to ITM | 33.86 | 237 | ANA, ANA Wings, Jet Linx Aviation |
| ITM to HND | 33.57 | 235 | ANA, ANA Wings |
3 carriers are recorded on the sector, so a missed departure is normally a rebooking rather than a lost day.
At 33.9 times a day there is usually another departure within a few hours, which is what makes a same day booking on this pair realistic.
Between them the two directions put about 472 departures a week on HND to ITM, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 1h 06m block time on HND to ITM. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to HND | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At HND before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| HND to ITM in the air, estimated | 66 min | 5h 36m |
| Formalities at ITM | 90 min | 7h 06m |
| Delivery run in Osaka | 45 min | 7h 51m |
| Door to door | 471 min | 7h 51m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for HND to ITM is 7h 51m.
A courier who leaves Tokyo at 09:00 local is on the ground in Osaka at about 10:06 local and at the door by 12:21 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Osaka, the last useful departure from Tokyo is around 14:39 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 3 of them join HND to ITM.
| Connecting at | HND to hub, flights a day | Hub to ITM, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fukuoka FUK | 64 | 12.43 | 1,359 | 3h 50m |
| Sapporo CTS | 66.71 | 11.43 | 1,860 | 4h 23m |
| Okinawa OKA | 41 | 6.86 | 2,765 | 5h 32m |
With 33.9 times a day on the nonstop, a connection here is a disruption plan rather than a routing, and it is listed because a closed runway or a cancellation wave is exactly when nobody has time to work it out.
3 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Fukuoka FUK, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 12.4 times a day.
Through FUK the routing covers 1,359 km against the 404 km nonstop track and takes about 3h 50m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is 2h 44m more than the nonstop, which is the price of a missed departure on this pair.
Behind it, Sapporo CTS at 4h 23m and Okinawa OKA at 5h 32m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
The two ends are only 404 km apart in a straight line. Allowing a road track a quarter longer than that and eighty kilometres an hour, a car covers it in about 6h 19m, so a courier who misses the flight drives rather than connects, and on a short deadline the road is often the plan from the start.
If nothing suitable leaves Tokyo, Tokyo NRT is 60 km away by great circle and carries 117 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.
If nothing suitable leaves Osaka, Osaka KIX is 44 km away by great circle and carries 70 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for HND to ITM in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
