Layover Luxuries Airports So Good You'll Want to Get Stuck

24. Kansai International Airport (KIX) – An Engineering Marvel Over the Ocean

Located on an artificial island in Osaka Bay, Kansai International Airport is an architectural wonder and one of the world’s most resilient airports, designed to withstand earthquakes and typhoons. Travelers will appreciate the seamless efficiency, fantastic Japanese food options, and tranquil relaxation areas. Those with a longer layover can take advantage of the airport’s nearby hot spring bathhouse, where you can soak in a Japanese onsen while watching planes take off over the bay.
