Take the orange Airport Line to Hakata or Tenjin. If you land at the international terminal, take the free shuttle to the domestic terminal for the subway.
From Fukuoka Airport (福岡空港)
International arrivals
From the 1F arrivals hall, take the free domestic-terminal shuttle from stop 5. Get off at the domestic terminal shuttle stop and follow the subway signs (地下鉄). If your hotel is close to a bus stop, compare a direct city bus from the international terminal.
Domestic arrivals
Follow the subway signs to the B2F access hall and Fukuoka Airport Station (福岡空港駅, K 13). Take the orange K Airport Line (空港線) toward the city. Hakata is two stops away and Tenjin is five stops away.
Get off at K 11 for JR trains or the Shinkansen. Check whether your hotel says Chikushi Exit (筑紫口), shown here, or Hakata Exit (博多口) on the opposite side.
Get off at K 08 for central Tenjin. Use the numbered exit on your hotel’s map. Tenjin-minami (天神南駅) is on the Nanakuma Line, and Nishitetsu Fukuoka (Tenjin) (西鉄福岡(天神)駅) is the separate rail station for the train toward Dazaifu.
