How we counted

Check-in closes: the last time to check in and drop bags at the counter. Where only a bag drop time is given, we show that time.
Gate closes: the time the boarding gate closes. 'Be at the gate by then' marks airlines that set the time you must already be at the gate.
Online check-in: the last time you can check in on the website or app.

We read each airline's own check-in pages and kept only the deadlines whose words and minutes we found on the saved page. Check-in counters, bag drop, security, the boarding gate and online check-in are kept apart. Times the airline only recommends (such as arriving 3 hours early) are not counted as deadlines. Where an airline sets different times by airport, we show Narita, then Haneda, then Kansai, and add the other airports. Where only a bag drop time is given, it stands in for check-in. Where an airline gives two times for different aircraft or flights, we show the range and sort by the earlier one.

Open a row to see every deadline the airline gives, by airport and class: bag drop, security, the boarding gate and the time it advises you to arrive.

60 minutes before departure is by far the most common check-in deadline (50 airlines). 10 of the 13 airlines from mainland China close later, 35 to 45 minutes before. 5 airlines close earlier than 60 minutes, so check the row before you plan your trip to the airport.
