The deep blue sea, the pure white sand, and the tropical flowers in full bloom. Saipan, the gateway to the Northern Mariana Islands, is about a three-and-a-half hour flight from Japan. Saipan is home to many spots full of tropical nature and rustic scenery with a nostalgic feel.
As of January 2024, United Airlines operates direct flights from Japan to Saipan three times a week from Narita.
The model itinerary we are introducing this time uses United Airlines' direct flight to Saipan, and is recommended for those who want to enjoy their overseas trip to the fullest at a relaxing beach resort.Depart on a Thursday night and arrive on a Monday morning. This is a 4 night 5 day plan to return home!
