2022/10 Summary of international flights to and from Okinawa.
I have summarized the airlines operating international flights at Naha International Airport in Okinawa (as of 2022/10/18).
Due to the pandemic of covid-19, there are still many companies that are not currently flying international flights from Naha, but as the impact of the covid-19 is waning, I feel that the day when they will start flights is not far away.
Before the outbreak of COVID-19, it was possible to go directly to Korea, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore, etc.
Also, even when going to other parts of the world, you can connect at major international airports such as Incheon International Airport in South Korea and Hong Kong International Airport, may be include Taoyuan Airport in Taiwan, You can reach your destination faster than connecting at Narita, Haneda, and Kansai airports.
In addition, Hong Kong and Incheon have a lot of airlines fly in, so many LCCs are flying too, so there are many opportunity to reduce the flight cost.
A little while ago, my friend went to Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam via Taoyuan with Vietjet Air, the airfare was only 10 bucks, which became a hot topic among our friends.
Vietjet Air has become a hot topic because its CEO is a woman, and at first, the service of the cabin crew in bikinis danced on the plane, it also became a hot topic.
In the end, the Vietnamese government got mad at the service, then the service had been ended and they paid fine.

As of October 2022, Tigerair has flights every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday between Taiwan and Naha, and HKexpress has also started operations between Hong Kong and Naha. Also, Peach aviation has announced that it will operate to Taiwan from November 17th.
When I search for flight reservations for January 2023, nearly half of the airlines’ flights are now available for reservation, so I feel that overseas travel will come back more and more from now on.
