Stuck at Okinawa Airport for 36 Hours Because of Typhoon Jangmi

I got stuck at Okinawa Airport in Japan for 36 hours because of Typhoon Jangmi, also known as Typhoon No. 6 in Japan. Flights were cancelled, the airport was almost completely empty, safety warnings were everywhere, and I had no idea when I could finally leave.

Everything felt a bit dramatic and slightly apocalyptic (at least no zombies were spotted XD), and the next day it felt like absolutely nothing has happened.

Classic travel chaos...

In this travel vlog, I show what it was like being stranded at the airport during a typhoon in Japan, how empty Okinawa airport became, and how quickly life went back to normal the next day.
