To help travelers compress their luggage and free up space in their suitcases,
Narita Airport will conduct a limited-time demonstration experiment of an "automatic clothing compressor" in the departure lobbies of Terminals 2 and 3 from January 13th to 15th, 2026.
This compressor uses "Pocket Tips" technology to compress clothing to palm-sized size in about one minute.
It is free and no reservation is required. It may be introduced as a permanent service even after the demonstration experiment.
