Felipe and Letizia arrived at Haneda Airport in Tokyo on Tuesday, a day before the official start of the visit. A low-key welcome ceremony was held at the airport.

Letizia stepped up her earring game considerably for this event. These diamond and ruby earrings are loaners from her mother-in-law, Queen Sofia. The earrings depict a diamond-encrusted dove holding a ruby wreath in its beak. They have a matching necklace; the set was a gift to Sofia from the Saudi royal family.
