Narita Airport Terminal 3 · Food and transfers to T2
Narita T3 has its departure lobby and landside food court on the second floor, with arrivals on the first floor. Use Airport Terminal 2 Station for trains, then walk along the connecting passage or take a free bus.
Getting here from the railway station
Leave the gates at Airport Terminal 2 Station and take the escalator on the left up to the first floor. Follow the signed passage and escalators to the second-floor connecting walkway. For the free bus, board the T3 service at bus stop 1 on the first floor of T2. If carrying large bags, also allow for the walk to the stop and the waiting time.
Eating before security
The second-floor public area has a food court with Ringer Hut, udon, beef dishes, burgers and other options. Ringer Hut and several other outlets open early, but opening hours are not identical across all shops. Do not assume the same restaurants will be available after passport control; plan the end of your meal alongside the time needed for departure formalities.
Visiting before a flight from another terminal
Passengers departing from T2 can eat in T3’s public area, but should not go through security at T3. After eating, return to the actual departure terminal and complete the airline’s procedures there. The published estimate of about 13 minutes between the T3 first-floor arrivals information counter and the railway station is a guide; works and crowding may change the time needed.
