Plan it in LYVR
Your ITM layover, planned to the minute.
Save your flights and LYVR finds the connection at ITM on its own, then times every part of it. From four hours before takeoff, tap your boarding pass to see your plane on a live map.
Lounges you can actually get into.
Add your cards and memberships once. With LYVR Pro, every lounge at ITM shows whether you're in, and the live queue where there is one.
Directions that know which floor you're on.
Step-by-step directions from your gate to your next one. They follow the real hallways, tell you when to take an escalator, when to hop on the train between terminals and where you'll go through security again. Your route is ready the moment you tap Start.
Time to see Osaka?
Getting out, the ride each way, security on the way back and a cushion, checked against your passport. With LYVR Pro, a day in Osaka, planned.
Layover questions
ITM, answered.
Can I check the security wait time at ITM?
LYVR doesn't have security wait times for ITM yet. It still times your walk between gates and through the terminal, so you can see how much of the layover is really free.
How much time do I need for a layover at ITM?
It depends on your terminals, whether you go through security or customs again, and how far apart the gates are. LYVR adds up deplaning, every walk through the terminal, any checkpoints your connection passes and the boarding door time, then shows exactly how much time you have to spare.
Is a 1 hour layover enough at ITM?
On one ticket, the airline won't sell you a connection shorter than the minimum it allows at ITM, and it rebooks you if a delay makes you miss it. Connecting to another country, with a security check on the way, is still more comfortable with 1.5 to 2 hours, and separate tickets need 3 or more. LYVR works out your exact time to spare for your own two gates.
What is there to do on a layover at ITM?
With an hour or two, eat near your gate and walk the terminal. LYVR's Explore tab lists every restaurant, bar and shop near your gate with the walk time, so you only see what fits in your layover.
Can I leave the airport on a layover at ITM?
On a domestic connection, yes, with enough time. On an international one, only if you're allowed to enter Japan, since leaving ITM means going through passport control, and you'd want about 6 hours: the passport line both ways, the trip into Osaka and back, and security on the way in. LYVR checks the ride each way, the time you'd have in the city and your passport's entry rule.
