Is there a public-accessible scale in Naha International Airport in Okinawa?

Question

I don't travel light. My backpack is usually about 17kg but when boarding my last flight the check-in scale thought it was 19kg. Sadly my next flight, the day after tomorrow, has a 15kg luggage limit.

I can transfer some small heavy items to my carry-on and I do have some things I can throw away but my current accommodation doesn't have a way to weigh my stuff. I don't want to get rid of more than necessary.

If I arrive a good few hours early can I weight my stuff at Naha airport while I re-pack? I've done this at a couple of airports in the past but can't remember seeing scales available in every airport I've been to.

Answer 1

The answer is YES!

I decided I had no better plans in Naha than to walk and explore, so why not walk and explore to the airport?

International departures has one or two electronic scales near the Peach check-in counters that are designed for carry-on luggage but might work for larger luggage too.

Then there's a couple more near the ANA check-in counters that are definitely suitable for both checked luggage and carry-on.

Over at the busier domestic departures there are more scales just like the ones at ANA International, some of which are right next to desks labelled "repacking area".
