Indeed arriving BR158 10.25 on 17th
Departing KE776 12.00 however already on 18th (sadly, there was no other reasonable option)
It looks like the bus from airport to Kanazama operates based on domestic arrivals:
So basically one needs to go to domestic arrivals and hope timing fits?
When I first checked it appeared as if there were buses one hour after international arrivals but they are no longer mentioned.
There seems to be a shuttle bus to Komatsu eki so train would be an option. As we have such a tight schedule I think we won't go that route, it wastes too much time. I do wonder however, is Taxi a realistic option, or would that be very expensive?
Shuttles to Komatsu Station are the same buses that go to Kanazawa. How about a taxi to Komatsu Station (10 minutes, ¥2,300) and Shinkansen to Kanazawa? There are two trains per hour (though not very well spaced) and it takes 12-14 minutes to Kanazawa. A taxi from Komatsu Airport to Kanazawa costs about ¥14,000 and takes 40 minutes.
I’ll post suggestions for the afternoon of the 17th later.
P.S. Komatsu Airport arrivals area. Hopefully there are taxis around to catch.
