WiFi & Connectivity
Stay connected at New Chitose Airport — free WiFi, eSIM options and local data for Japan.
Airport WiFi at CTS
Registration required to connect — look for the sign-in page after joining the network.
Japan has no firewall or app-blocking issues, so any eSIM with Japan data (a global roaming eSIM or a Japan-specific one) works normally the moment you land — a useful backup since the free terminal wifi is unencrypted.
Registration asks for an email address and requires accepting NTT Broadband Platform's terms; since the connection isn't encrypted, avoid logging into anything sensitive over it and use a VPN or your own data if you need to.
