Kansai International Airport Selects Stores for New Domestic Area of Terminal 1

Kansai Airports is pleased to announce that new stores have been selected to open in the new domestic area of Kansai International Airport Terminal 1, which is currently under renovation.

The new domestic area is scheduled to open in the fall of 2022. Security checkpoints for domestic will be consolidated into one location on the south side, and smart lanes, the state-of-the-art security screening equipment, will be introduced to reduce waiting time during the busy period. We also drastically expand the commercial area after security checkpoints. A total of six shops with a rich Kansai Flavor (four F&B and two retail) will be opened, transforming the area into a more attractive space for you to enjoy shopping and dining while waiting for boarding.

The landside area before security checkpoints is also be rearranged in line with the domestic area relocation to accommodate the various needs of air travelers, those who are sending off/picking up passengers, and those who stay over late at night. We will announce the opening date as soon as decided.

Kansai Airports Group will continue to work with all relevant stakeholders to enhance the function of Kansai International Airport, the gateway to the Kansai Region, that welcomes domestic and international passengers by promoting projects with safety and security as our top priority.
