Narita International Airport (Japanese: 成田国際空港 Narita Kokusai Kūkō) (IATA: NRT, ICAO: RJAA) is an international airport in the eastern portion of Narita, Chiba, Japan.
On July 13, 2004, Bobby Fischer was detained at Narita Airport for allegedly using an invalid U.S. passport while trying to board a Japan Airlines flight to Ninoy Aquino International Airport outside Manila; he left Japan a year later after obtaining asylum in Iceland.
The Narita Rapid Railway, currently under construction and scheduled for completion in 2010, is designed to cut travel time between Nippori and the airport to 36 minutes.
