Island.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, many tourists come to the Miyako Islands for sightseeing and leisure, with about 350,000 people coming to the islands each year.<\/p>\n<p>The islands are rich in nature, with beautiful coral reefs, mangrove forests, and other natural features that remain intact, making them a remote island where visitors can enjoy such natural beauty.<\/p>\n<p>Miyako Island is a

63,000 yen and ANA is approximately 58,000 yen.<\/p>\n<p>Incidentally, direct flights from Haneda Airport depart early for JAL and noon for ANA.<\/p>\n<p>The direct return flight from Miyakojima is around 7:30 p.m. for JAL and 3:30 p.m. for ANA.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to leave early and return early, you can fly round trip on ANA, or if you want to have fun for a long time after arriving at Miyakojima, you can use JAL.<\/p>\n<p>Also, if you want to save money, rather than taking a direct flight, use an LCC to Naha and fly JAL or ANA from Naha, or use Shimojishima Airport as your arrival point, Skymark offers a direct flight from Haneda.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E9%96%A2%E8%A5%BF%E3%82%A8%E3%83%AA%E3%82%A2%E3%81%8B%E3%82%89\"><\/span>From Kansai

about 60,000 yen one way.<\/p>\n<p>Incidentally, ANA's direct flights may have a boarding rate of 90% during the peak summer season, so early booking is recommended.<\/p>\n<p>In the case of Jetstar, the service is suspended during the winter season and only operates during the year-end and New Year's holidays.<\/p>\n<p>There are flights departing from Kansai International Airport and arriving at Shimojishima Airport, and the schedule is one round trip only on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays (one round trip per day during summer vacation).<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Skymark will operate from Kobe Airport to Shimojishima Airport from October 25, 2020.<\/p>\n<p>If you use it, departing from Kobe at 10:40 a.m., you would arrive at Shimojishima Airport at around 1:20 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, flights from Kansai to Miyakojima are expected to become more convenient in the future.<\/p>\n<p>There is also Itami Airport, but there are no direct flights to Miyako Island from this airport, and visitors must go through Naha Airport.<\/p>\n<p>Also, there are no LCCs flying from Itami Airport to Naha Airport, so use JAL or ANA.<\/p>\n<p>However, it should be noted that
