JA Kitamirai, Greens Kitami, and Hokkaido Airports will install the “Kitami Onion Catcher,” a claw machine offering Kitami onions as prizes, at Memanbetsu Airport from September 18.
Kitami onions account for approximately half of Japan’s domestic onion production. This is the second phase of a promotional campaign, following the “Onion Soup Faucet” introduced in 2025. According to Hokkaido Airports, this will be the first installation of a claw machine offering onions as prizes at an airport anywhere in Japan.
The machine will be located in the second-floor departure lobby from September 18 through November 3. It will be available from 8:00 a.m. until the departure of the final flight, except on the first day, when it will open at 10:00 a.m. Service may be suspended depending on restocking and inventory conditions.
To play, customers who spend 2,000 yen or more, including tax, in a single transaction at retail or food and beverage outlets within Memanbetsu Airport will receive one play medal. Stores inside the departure waiting area are not eligible.
