Japan has pronounced peak seasons that push fares up: cherry-blossom spring (late March–April), autumn foliage (November) and the Golden Week and New Year holidays. For better value:
Delhi (DEL): Indira Gandhi International, Terminal 3 for international departures.
Osaka (KIX): Kansai International, built on an artificial island in Osaka Bay, about 50 km from central Osaka. Terminal 1 handles most full-service carriers; Terminal 2 is used by low-cost airlines. Fast rail (the Nankai Rapi:t and JR Haruka) links KIX to Osaka and Kyoto.
On one-stop international itineraries the operating carrier and fare class set your allowance, and bags are normally checked through to Osaka. Full-service long-haul economy usually includes a generous checked allowance. If any segment is on an Indian carrier, check Air India baggage or IndiGo baggage; otherwise confirm with your chosen airline.
Indian passport holders require a visa for Japan — there is no visa on arrival. Tourists can now obtain a single-entry short-stay eVisa (up to 90 days) under Japan's eVISA system, with India classified in the accredited-agency tier, meaning a registered agency submits the application on your behalf and you receive a digital Visa Issuance Notice. Traditional sticker visas via VFS Global remain available for longer stays. Verify the latest process and fees before applying.
Your layover shapes the trip:
Osaka is Japan's food capital — street eats like takoyaki and okonomiyaki, the neon-lit Dotonbori canal, and a famously friendly, down-to-earth vibe. It is also the springboard for the Kansai region: ancient Kyoto's temples and geisha districts, the deer park and Great Buddha of Nara, and Himeji Castle are all short train rides away, making KIX an ideal entry point for first-time Japan travellers.
