From October 8–10, weather conditions may become more unstable due to a developing typhoon (Typhoon Halong). Depending on its path, there’s a risk of heavy rain, strong winds, and rough seas, especially in Okinawa, the Amami Islands, and coastal areas along the Pacific side of western to eastern Japan. If you’re traveling in these regions, be sure to monitor local forecasts and ferry/flight updates closely.

Japan's typhoon season runs from May through October, with most activity from July to September. During a typhoon, transit delays and cancellations can be expected.
