Location
History
Miyazaki Airport Station opened on 18 July 1996 as the terminus of JR Kyushu's new 1.4 km Miyazaki Kūkō Line, which branches from Tayoshi. Until the Naha Airport monorail station opened on 10 August 2003, it was Japan's southernmost airport rail station. The station has an elevated, slightly curved island platform serving two tracks; the exit leads out to the Miyazaki Airport passenger terminal building and the bus terminal in front of it. It was a staffed station with a Midori no Madoguchi ticket office run under contract by a JR Kyushu subsidiary until 1 October 2023, when it was converted to a directly operated station under JR Kyushu itself. Since 6 August 2015 the station has used an approach and departure melody, 'Būkenbirian', improvised on the spot by Minoru Mukaiya at the request of the governor of Miyazaki Prefecture.
Notes
Until Naha Airport's monorail station opened on 10 August 2003, Miyazaki Airport was Japan's southernmost airport rail station.
