Airport and terminal
Choose the airport on the flight booking. A shorter map distance does not prove that an airport offers the flight or ground journey your group needs.
One flight or several
For arrivals into Kyoto on different flights, list each flight separately and indicate whether passengers should wait for one combined departure.
One-way or return
If the trip includes a departure transfer, provide the flight time and final pickup address for that leg too.

Planning your Kyoto journey
How do ITM and UKB compare for a Kyoto transfer?
Osaka Itami International Airport (ITM) is about 39 km from the Kyoto map reference in a straight line; Kobe Airport (UKB) is about 65 km. These figures are not road distances. Base the enquiry on the booked flight and actual destination address; road access and collection arrangements are checked separately.
Can one enquiry cover groups landing at different airports near Kyoto?
List each airport, flight number, arrival time and passenger count separately. If one group lands at ITM and another at UKB, say whether they need separate vehicles or whether you want a combined itinerary assessed. Do not assume a single vehicle can meet both schedules.
What happens if the destination after landing is Higashiosaka?
Use Higashiosaka as the actual destination rather than entering only Kyoto as the wider area. Add the hotel or venue address and luggage count so the quote covers the requested end point.
How do the Higashiosaka and Osaka stops compare from Kyoto?
From the Kyoto geographic reference, Higashiosaka is approximately 42.4 km away in a straight line and Osaka is 43.1 km away. A further destination reference is Nishinomiya, approximately 51.3 km from Kyoto. The first two distances are close, so they give little basis for choosing the visit order. Use your actual addresses and appointment times. These are map measurements, not driving distances; a feasible route and vehicle allocation must be assessed in the quotation.
