Haneda consistently ranks among the world's busiest passenger airports , even though nearly all of its flights are to destinations within Japan. By passenger throughput, Haneda is the busiest airport in Asia, handling 62.3 million passengers in 2004. For cargo, it often ranks as the world's busiest airport.

Haneda Aerodrome first opened in 1931 on a small piece of bayfront land at the south end of today's airport complex. It was Japan's largest civilian airport at the time it was constructed. During the 1930's it handled flights to destinations in Japan and Manchuria.

Haneda Airport has three terminals. The main terminals, 1 and 2, are connected by an underground walkway; a free shuttle bus runs between the main terminals and the smaller International Terminal every five minutes.
