England squad set off from London for Rugby World Cup in Japan

England have set off for the start of the 2019 Rugby World Cup on the Trip to Japan.

The squad flew from Heathrow Airport in London and so are put to land on Monday in Tokyo.
Their birth in Japan is due to match with Typhoon Faxai, that is expected to cause significant disruption in the Asian country.
The storm has generated winds up to 180kph and is expected to reach regions of the Kanto area between Sunday and early Monday, the Japan Meteorological Agency said.
Tournament organisers have planned for the chance of needing to relocate groups or matches to various places.
The stadiums to England’s first two games, against the United States in Kobe and Tonga at Sapporo, have roofs and Jones says that the group will train indoors on turf.
England have just two weeks to acclimatise to the conditions in Asia before they face the Tongans.
Prior to enjoying Argentina in Tokyo on October 18, they will then confront the United States on September 26.
England take on France in their final group stage match in Yokohama on October 12.
