Itami Airport doesn't open until 5:30am and ticket counters do not open until 6:00am. Overnight stay at airport hotel for early flights worked well.

Airport bag check and check in doesn't open until 5:30AM at Kansai airport so no reason to get there earlier.

Get there early! Train from Kyoto was difficult to find and get tickets, plus it’s an hour and a half trip! Also Haneda airport is huge and confusing! Recommend layovers of over 1-1/4 hours only.
