Store or Ship in NRT?
So I'm doing a mega vacation in March. 9 Days in Hawaii, 9 days in Japan (via NRT) and 5 days in Singapore. Last year when I was in Japan I loaded up on ceramics, sake and whiskey (It's Suntory time!) At any rate, I don't want to haul all my loot from Japan to Singapore and Back. It sounds like a hassle in customs in SIN and a lot to carry.
On the way back from SIN I'll be in NRT for about an 1:45hr. I'll be flying NW so I'm not sure the best route to take here. If it was JL I'm pretty sure I could drop the packages off with JL's Takuhaibin service and everything would just happen. Is there a place air-side in terminal 1 to store something for 5 days? Or is there a good shipping service I could use? I don't think I can check bags that early. |
1.45hr is pretty tight to go through immigration, get the bag and recheck it. I can't remember any airside baggage check at NRT. I have checked a bag in the middle of two flights years ago but I don't know if you can do this today.
There is an airside baggage check in Changi T2 and I will use it this week. But it is before immigration so you have to think through how to arrange your items as you can't carry much liquid in carryon. |
Correct me if I'm wrong. If I'm reading the other liquid thread correct no liquids allowed through any security checkpoint? Last year when I was on a JL flight they only did the liquid check right before you went down to the departure gate. That's changed right?
I looked at the NRT webpage, it seems there is a storage service on the 4th floor, but it's not at all clear if it's airside or landside. It's been about 7 years since I've been in Terminal 1. I remember going through metal detectors/x-ray when I got off the plane last time and being herded into one of NW's satelites, is there any security between the satellites? I.e. Worse comes to worse can I hit duty free with out having to do immigration/security? |
