Couple questions:
- My KIX flight departs at 6:45am. Since I’m connecting to an international business class flight, will I get any kind of expedited security at KIX? I’m currently booked at the Hyatt Caption Osaka, but wondering if it’s easier to just cancel my last night and stay at Hotel Nikko Kansai to simplify the early morning.
- Will I need to collect my bags and re-check at Haneda, or will they be checked through to CDG? Do I have to re-clear security or just change terminals at HND?
Thanks for any tips!
Unfortunately, KIX domestic security lane is only for elite passengers and priority guests (i.e. those requires assistance)

Information about the passengers eligible to use the priority lanes at the domestic security checkpoints at Kansai Airport
At Kansai International Airport, due to the security checkpoints shared with other airlines, the priority lanes are used in the same manner as those used by other airlines.Please kindly understand that there are differences from other airports.
※Eligible passengers: Priority Guests, JMB Diamond, JGC Premier, JMB Sapphire members, oneworld elite status Emerald and Sapphire members
It will be checked through to CDG. Just make sure you use the check-in counters for international connecting when you check in for your KIX-HND flight.
There's an airside transfer from T1 to T3 at HND but I've never done it before.
