Urgent question
Hello
I have scrapped my rtw trip stopping off in BKK as I snagged LH First from ATL-FRA-HND-FRA-ATL for tomorrow morning and really want to experience all that LH offers in First.
My question is, I land at HND and have a little more than a 2 hour layover before I get right back on the same aircraft back to FRA.
As I am just transiting can someone confirm I don't need to fill out Immigration/Custom info in the Fly Japan app and will just follow the signs for international transit.
Thank you

Sounds like what you are just doing would be considered an international transfer at Haneda.
Probably fine, as long as you are ticketed and checked in for the departing flight, and if not doing so in advance, check-in can usually be done at the int'l transfer desk within the terminal prior to going through immigration. However at Japanese airports you will still need to go through a security check (not immigration) with any int'l transfer.

You will have no issues -- just follow the signs for international connections -- go through the quick security check -- and head to the 1st class lounge!

Thanks! I'll be leaving on the same aircraft back to FRA so my "duty" is to stock up on duty free treats for my wife in the short time I have there.

That looks so delicious.
Sadly, just before I left for the airport, I tested positive for COVID. I was feeling a little rundown and chalked it up to insomnia.
20ish hours in LH F and two trips to the LH First Class Terminal in Frankfurt down the drain.
