(IATA: KIX, ICAO: RJBB) is an international airport located on an artificial island in the middle of Osaka Bay KIX opened its doors in 1994, and has since become an important international hub for the country, providing one of the largest networks for both domestic and international routes with 24h operations. The airport is considered a gateway for the Kansai area, the Western part of Japan, receiving approximately 30 million passengers every year.

New many improvement. Especially tetrapods on coastline, taxiway and packing. The airport is also not work well with "Easy airlines+aircraft matching with default live traffic" and "Enhanced Live Traffic" addon.
I hesitated when deciding to buy , but I am surprised that it is actually not too bad, even beyond my initial expectations, there are small flaws but no effect affect my experience,this will definitely be my favorite destination in the future, for me it deserves 5*
For the price charged the quality is extremely underwhelming. Taxiway lines aren't straight, there's lights and signs popping up at gates, gates aren't all straight, jetways blocking full access of many gates, and the roof looks like it's wrapped in aluminum foil. The taxiway bridges aren't even bridges, they're just elevated land with "tunnel" stickers on each end. The terrain is not smooth at all, its bumpy, and overall feels like this should have been worked on for another month or 2 before release. I hope for improvements. If you want something that isn't the default autogen buildings this is it, but make sure you think hard about spending this much on it before purchasing, especially with another Kansai in development from another developer.
i went here in 2018, and this product makes me feel like i'm here again, everything has been recreated as best as possible, although there are a few things that are not good, terapod block and rough interior but maybe that's all that can be done in a video game. I love how this developer tries to improve the products, I will continue to support the following products
While still not exactly "good" for the price, this is a marked improvement from past airports from this developer, like Chubu Centrair (which is unfortunately really bad and worse than the freeware available).
A few points that definitely need improvement:
1: pretty much all the parking spots are set as too small and won't fit anything bigger than an A321. RJBB is a major international airport designed to take 747-size aircraft or more. This will interfere majorly with the AI add-ons that are coming, causing bigger aircraft not to spawn or to disappear on landing. You need to manually set all cargo aprons and gates so that they're large enough to fit the correct aircraft and even add a bit because the simulator counts the space taken by ground service vehicles.
2: Many smaller buildings are missing, albeit it's not as bad as Chubu. Without more detail, I'd classify this as some sort of "RJBB Lite" but not something that can stand the comparison with airports made by some of the more reputable developers.
3: I appreciate the effort to terraform and lift the airport's artificial islands from the water (which wasn't done for RJGG), but you really need to make the coverage of the 3D models used for the breakwaters more uniform across the board, so they hide the morphed effect on the texture.
4: The ortho needs to be cleaned. Slapping 3D car models over the cars painted on the ground isn't sufficient. You actually should manually delete the cars painted on the ground and then put the 3D models on top of the cleaned textures.
5: one of the textures on the air conditioner ducts on the top of the buildings is all black.
Again, I appreciate the improvement over my past purchase, and I think this developer could improve further with effort and attention to detail, and perhaps trying less to rush as many major airports as possible out of the door as they're unfortunately doing, sacrificing quality. An airport like RJBB should be the work of months, not weeks or days. That being said, I definitely hope that RJGG and other past airports will be updated to this level or better.
