Japan is one of the busiest business hubs on the globe. Add to it the country's rising credentials as a tourism stopover and you have a destination that's perhaps one of the most frequented by international travellers. Given the mammoth-size reputation of Japan as both business and leisure destination, a large number of airlines run flights to the country. Almost every major city on the planet is well connected to Japan's capital, Tokyo. London Heathrow-Tokyo Narita, in particular, could well be one of the most well served routes in the world, with every major airline operating flights to Japan from UK's largest airport. Non-stop, direct services are available in numbers and so are connecting flights. All Nippon Airways, Virgin Atlantic and British Airways are among the popular carriers that provide tickets on direct flights to Tokyo from LHR.
