Yokohama Air Cabin & Cosmo Clock 21 Ferris Wheel – Ticket Information & Experience Details

Overview

Yokohama Air Cabin, Japan’s first urban circular ropeway opened on April 22, 2021, in Yokohama’s vibrant Minato Mirai 21 district, connects JR Sakuragicho Station to Unga Park Station over a 630-meter route at up to 40 meters high, taking just 5 minutes for stunning aerial views of Yokohama Bay, the Landmark Tower, Cosmo Clock 21 Ferris Wheel, and Red Brick Warehouse. This innovative transport doubles as a sightseeing thrill, with 36 air-conditioned, barrier-free cabins seating 8 each. Paired with Cosmo Clock 21, the world’s largest clock-faced Ferris wheel at 112.5 meters in Yokohama Cosmo World amusement park, offering 15-minute panoramic rides with LED illuminations and cityscapes including Mount Fuji on clear days.

Disclaimer

Jasumo offers a facilitation service for foreign tourists and non-Japanese residents in Japan, helping them access and apply for tickets to various attractions, including Yokohama Air Cabin & Cosmo Clock 21 2025. We are not a reseller of tickets, nor do we sell tickets directly. Our role is to support international customers by guiding them through the official ticket booking process, ensuring they can secure their tickets through recognized platforms and authorized providers. As a business based in Japan with a bilingual staff and a deep understanding of the challenges faced by non-Japanese visitors, we address common bottlenecks such as:

Language Barriers: Navigating Japan’s primarily Japanese-language ticketing systems can be challenging for foreign tourists. Jasumo provides bilingual support to bridge this gap and ensure a smooth booking experience. Access to Japanese-Only Platforms: Many attractions in Japan require local knowledge to navigate and access, and often these platforms do not offer international payment options or are difficult to use for non-Japanese speakers. We facilitate the booking process by providing guidance and helping with international payment methods where applicable. Limited Availability & Complex Registration: Attractions in Japan often have limited capacity, and understanding the timing and process for securing tickets can be confusing for international visitors. Jasumo helps you manage deadlines and requirements, giving you the best chance of securing your entry.

Due to high demand for Yokohama Air Cabin & Cosmo Clock 21, with strict occupancy limits per time slot, availability is not guaranteed. Refunds will only be issued if entries cannot be secured through official channels or in case of cancellation. We strongly recommend booking early via https://jasumotickets.com/ to secure your preferred time slot at official prices (¥500–¥1,800).
