This was such an easy stress free experience. I have taken many airport transfers and this was by far the easiest and most efficient experience I have ever had. The communication was frequent and proactive. I cannot say enough about this company. 100% recommend

Fukuoka Airport Transfers (FUK)
About Fukuoka Airport
Fukuoka Airport (FUK, ICAO RJFF) is Kyushu's main airport and famously close to its city — it sits in Hakata Ward, about 4 km by road from Hakata Station. It has two separate terminal buildings: the domestic terminal, which has the subway station, and the international terminal on the far side of the runway, linked by a free inter-terminal shuttle bus. RydAgent fixed-price transfers run from Fukuoka Airport to Hakata, Tenjin, Dazaifu, Kokura, Beppu, Yufuin, Kumamoto and Nagasaki.

Where does your driver wait at Fukuoka Airport?
Terminals
- International Terminal
A separate building on the far side of the runway from the domestic terminal. Arrivals and pick-ups are on 1F.
- Domestic Terminal
Two arrivals lobbies, one each in the North and South wings of 1F. A free inter-terminal shuttle bus links the two buildings (the subway station is in the domestic terminal).
Meeting point
As standard, your driver waits in the arrivals hall holding a sign with your name. Collect your bags, clear customs, walk out — the name board is the first thing you look for. If airport conditions ever make a name board impossible (peak-hour parking restrictions, for example), the driver sends you a photo and their exact location in the chat on your booking page, so you are never left searching. At Fukuoka the driver waits at the 1F arrivals hall of the International Terminal (for domestic flights, the North or South arrivals lobby of the domestic terminal — tell us the flight and we know which).
Fukuoka Airport to Hakata Station: train, bus, taxi or private car?
The table compares every realistic way to cover the 4 km from Fukuoka Airport to Hakata Station: rail and bus fares are per person and metered taxi fares are a range, while the RydAgent price is one fixed amount for the whole vehicle.

Landing late at night at Fukuoka Airport?
Fukuoka Airport sits inside the city — Hakata Station is a few minutes away — but the subway stops for the night and it runs from the domestic terminal, a shuttle-bus ride from international arrivals. Late international arrivals are simplest with a car waiting at the international terminal itself.
Why book your Fukuoka Airport transfer with RydAgent
Flight tracked, 90 minutes free waiting
We track your flight number, and the 90 minutes of free waiting are counted from the moment you actually land — a delay moves the clock, it never eats into your wait.
Name board at arrivals, as standard
Your driver waits in the arrivals hall holding a sign with your name. If airport conditions ever make that impossible, your driver sends you a photo and their exact location in the chat on your booking page.
A real person on WhatsApp, any hour
A dedicated English-speaking agent answers within minutes at any hour, before and during the trip. Your booking page shows your driver's name, car and plate once assigned, and usually their live location once they're on the way.
Driver no-show — your ride is free, plus ¥10,000
If our driver doesn't show, we refund the fare, cover the replacement ride you actually take, and pay ¥10,000 on top. We contact you first — you never have to claim.
Licensed commercial vehicles, professional drivers
In Japan, only cars licensed for paid passenger service (they carry green number plates) and drivers with a professional passenger licence may carry paying passengers. Every RydAgent ride uses both, including rides run by partner companies, and carries commercial passenger insurance. Private “white-plate” cars taking fares are illegal; we never use them.

Frequently Asked Questions
The subway is excellent for one or two people landing on a domestic flight. International arrivals land in a different building and need the inter-terminal shuttle first; with a family, big cases or a late arrival, that extra leg is where a fixed ¥19,000 car waiting at the international terminal earns its price. For Beppu, Yufuin or Nagasaki a car is a single expressway drive instead of a subway-and-express chain.
Fukuoka Airport to Hakata Station or Tenjin is a fixed ¥19,000 for an Alphard (up to 4) or ¥24,000 for a HiAce (up to 9 passengers), all-inclusive. Longer Kyushu routes — Beppu, Yufuin, Kumamoto, Nagasaki, Kokura — each have a fixed price on the route pages below.
Yes — that is exactly what the fixed-price routes below are for. Fukuoka Airport to Yufuin or Beppu is a single expressway drive with the driver waiting at arrivals; you skip Hakata Station entirely.
No. An airport taxi is metered and hailed at the rank on the spot; a Fukuoka Airport private transfer is a pre-booked car at a fixed all-inclusive price, with a named driver who tracks your flight and waits at arrivals with a name board. On longer airport runs the fixed price is usually close to or below the meter; on very short runs a taxi can be cheaper for one person — the comparison table on each FUK route page shows both, with real fares.
As standard, your driver waits in the arrivals hall holding a sign with your name. Collect your bags, clear customs, walk out — the name board is the first thing you look for. If airport conditions ever make a name board impossible (peak-hour parking restrictions, for example), the driver sends you a photo and their exact location in the chat on your booking page, so you are never left searching.
Nothing changes for you. We track the flight number, and free waiting at Fukuoka Airport is 90 minutes counted from the moment the flight actually lands — a delay simply moves the clock. Beyond 90 minutes, waiting is billed in 15-minute blocks (Alphard ¥6,000/hour, HiAce ¥8,000/hour). The driver never leaves without telling you.
If your arriving flight is cancelled by the airline, you choose: a free rebooking to your new flight (free waiting restarts from the new landing time) or a full refund. This applies even inside the 24-hour window before pickup — the cancellation isn't your fault, so it isn't treated as one.
A Fukuoka Airport pickup can be booked online until 20:00 Japan time the day before the pickup, with instant confirmation on fixed-price routes. For a same-day pickup, message us on WhatsApp and we'll see whether a car can be arranged — it isn't guaranteed. For peak dates (cherry blossom, Golden Week, Obon, year-end) book a few days ahead so the HiAce (up to 9 passengers) is still available.
Yes. The Fukuoka Airport transfer price you see is the price you pay: expressway tolls, airport parking, fuel and taxes are all inside it, and tipping is never expected. There is no late-night surcharge either — a 1 a.m. pickup costs the same as a 1 p.m. one.
Yes — ¥2,000 per seat, fitted before pickup. Tell us the children's ages when you book so the right type is installed.
The Toyota HiAce: nine passengers and nine large suitcases in one vehicle, one fixed price. The Alphard takes up to 4 passengers with 4 large cases. With fewer passengers, empty seats carry luggage too (passengers plus large suitcases up to 8 in the Alphard, 18 in the HiAce). Both are shown with prices on every Fukuoka Airport route page.
Yes. The price you see is the price you pay — tolls, parking, fuel and taxes are all included, and meet & greet with a name board at arrivals is standard. Free waiting is 90 minutes from your actual landing. Tipping is never expected — never required. The only extras are options you choose yourself, such as child seats or waiting beyond the free allowance. Waiting past the free allowance is ¥6,000/hour for an Alphard and ¥8,000/hour for a HiAce, in 15-minute blocks — and your driver does not leave when it runs out: if he has another transfer after yours, we reassign it so he can keep waiting. The only exception: if we get no reply from you on any channel the day before and on the day itself, the driver may leave once the free 90 minutes from your actual landing are up.
