Access to Sendai
We recommend traveling from Haneda Airport or Narita International Airport in Tokyo to Sendai by train (Shinkansen). Travel time from the airports to Sendai is about 2.5 hour (Haneda) and 3.5 hours (Narita).
For the participants from east Asia countries, however, it might be more convenient to get to Sendai Airport using direct flights from Seoul, Beijing (via Dalian), Shanghai, and Taipei.
