There are a number of airports in Japan. However, not all Japan airports have regularly scheduled flights. We do not list the smallest Japan airports, since there is no way to provide you flights from those airports. AirGorilla offers flights, hotels, and rental car reservations for Japan.

Japan (Japanese: Nihon or Nippon, officially Nihon-koku or Nippon-koku) is an island country in East Asia. Located in the Pacific Ocean, it lies to the east of China, Korea, and Russia, stretching from the Sea of Okhotsk in the north to the East China Sea in the south. The characters that make up Japan's name literally mean "Sun's Origin", thus Japan is also sometimes known as the self-identified "The Land of the Rising Sun", a name that comes from the country's eastward position relative to China. Its capital and largest city is Tokyo.

Since it adopted its constitution on May 3, 1947, Japan has maintained a unitary constitutional monarchy with an emperor and an elected parliament, the Diet, which is one of the oldest legislative bodies in Asia.

At 377,872 square kilometres (145,898 sq.mi), Japan is the sixty-second largest country by area. It encompasses over 3,000 islands, the largest of which are Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu and Shikoku. Most of Japan's islands are mountainous, and many are volcanic, including the highest peak, Mount Fuji.

About 70% to 80% of the country is forested, mountainous, and unsuitable for agricultural, industrial, or residential use, due to the generally steep elevations, climate, and risk of landslides caused by earthquakes, soft ground, and heavy rain. This has resulted in an extremely high population density in the habitable zones that are mainly located in coastal areas. Its location on the Pacific Ring of Fire, at the juncture of three tectonic plates, gives Japan frequent low-intensity tremors and occasional volcanic activity. Destructive earthquakes, often resulting in tsunamis, occur several times each century. The climate of Japan is predominantly temperate but varies greatly from north to south.

Japan is an economic world power with the world's second largest economy (by nominal GDP). Japan is among the world's largest and most technologically advanced producers of motor vehicles, electronic equipment, machine tools, steel and nonferrous metals, ships, chemical, textiles, and processed foods, and is home to some of the largest and most well-known multinational corporations and commercial brands in technology, machinery, and finance (see also list of Japanese companies) [7]. It is also one of the leading research nations in these sectors. Japan's service sector accounts for about three-quarters of its total economic output. Banking, insurance, real estate, retailing, transportation, and telecommunications are all major industries.

Japan holds a considerably large world market share in industries such as electronics, automobile, industrial chemicals, machine tools, electronic media and in recent years aerospace. Construction has long been one of Japan's largest industries, with the help of multi-billion dollar government contracts in the civil sector. Altogether these industries make Japan a major economic global power. ()
