If I am traveling to Indonesia;

I am US citizen, along with my US citizen baby,

and my Indonesian spouse with green card.

Do any of us need a visa to change planes in Tokyo Japan? Any special vaccinations?

Thanks

If you're just transiting or have connecting flight and won't go out the airport, there is no need to get a visa from Japan. Just show the airport marshalls around that you indeed have a connecting flight. Good luck.

Nope. So long as you have a connecting flight, and wont be staying longer than 8 hours lay-over, you can transit through Japan without a transit visa.
