restriction.

函館空港の喫煙所は1階ツアーデスク横と、2階搭乗口５のすぐ前に設置されている。この2階の喫煙室は有害煙の漏れが顕著で、
航空機に搭乗直前に肺一杯に吸い込んだ有害煙を機内に撒き散らす。また搭乗口５の前で出発を待つ間、ドアの開閉のその都度、
喫煙室から漏れた有害煙で頭痛や吐き気を催す乗客も少なくない。この喫煙所は撤去すべきである。

Misawa Airporti is an airport in Misawa in the Aomori Prefecture. It shares facilities and airport codes with the
Misawa Air Base.
History:
An Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service base was established at Misawa in 1941, and nearby Lake Ogawara was
reportedly one of the locations used by the Imperial Japanese Navy to practice for the attack on Pearl Harbor due
to its shallow depth. The base was heavy bombed by the United States Navy in 1945, and subsequently occupied
by the United States after the surrender of Japan at the end of World War II.
The first Misawa Airport was opened in January, 1952, with Japan Airlines providing scheduled services to Tokyo
and Chitose Airport in Hokkaido. However, commercial operations were suspended from March, 1965 due to
pressure from the United States, citing safety and security concerns, and flight operations were transferred to
nearby JMSDF Hachinohe Air Base. Misawa
Airport reopened in May, 1975, with a new terminal building completed in 1977; the terminal was expanded and
rebuilt in 1986. Initially served by Toa Airways with McDonnell Douglas DC-9 and MD-80 aircraft to Tokyo
(Haneda), Sapporo(Chitose), and Osaka Itami, operations were upgraded to Airbus A300 aircraft after Toa
Airways became Japan Air System in 1988. These flights were taken over by Japan Airlines after its acquisition of
Japan Air System in 2002. However, with the opening of Tohoku Shinkansen to Hachinohe in December 2002,
the number of passengers has decreased and equipment changed back to the MD-80. Flights to Chitose were
discontinued in 2007.

As of August 2019, there are three flights to Tokyo ( Haneda ) , one flight each to Osaka ( Itami ) and Sapporo
( Okadama ), daily.
2階が出発ロビーで売店、「レストラン三沢空港」などがあるが、レストランは国内空港でも喫煙規制の面で、最悪の一つ。
喫煙席と禁煙席があるが、どちらも部分的な壁のみで仕切った同室にあり、2000年以前のタバコ副流煙無防止の状態である。
三沢空港は米軍と共用で、米軍の管制課下にあり、1日7便との制約の下、羽田へ3便、大阪、札幌へそれぞれ1便の
定期運航がある。
