A short working page for separating the connected terminal, Yui Rail, city buses, resort buses, taxis and rental-car journeys across Okinawa Island.
Read the 30-minute complete guide
01 · THE SMALL MENTAL MAP
One connected terminal, two floors, several island scales
Domestic and international areas are connected inside the terminal complex. Yui Rail connects at the domestic-side second floor; buses, taxis and rental-car pickups begin from first-floor ground transport.
Connected passenger terminal
A connecting facility opened between domestic and international areas in 2019. They remain different check-in and arrival zones, so keep flight side and floor visible.
Connected does not mean the same counter or gate zone.Second-floor Yui Rail link
Naha Airport Station is reached through the domestic-area second-floor passage. Yui Rail serves Naha and part of Urasoe, not the whole island.
Confirm that the accommodation lies on or usefully near the Yui Rail corridor.First-floor bus and taxi area
Different numbered platforms serve Naha, central, northern, resort and southern directions. The route number, destination, operator and current stop all matter.
Match the exact stop and direction before joining a queue.Rental-car shuttle and road handoff
Rental counters or pickup shuttles lead to a separate contract and vehicle handoff. Licence validity, insurance, child seat, equipment, weather and the first left-side road segment all require confirmation.
A reservation is not the same as legal eligibility or safe readiness.CHOOSE ONE CARD FOR THIS MOMENT
