Just booked my tickets for my Japan trip over Hari Raya.

Cathay Pacific : RM1800 all in return.

By comparison, MAS was RM2700.

One pax, economy. Flying to Haneda and leaving from Narita (I would have preferred to fly from Haneda as well but the cheap tickets don't really give you a choice)

If you leave on Wed/Thur the tickets can be as low as RM1400.

AAX is also around RM2500-RM3000 return.

This is just a short trip (5 days) so not planning on seeing that much. I've also been to Tokyo quite a few times before, so won't be spending much time in Tokyo itself.

Definitely seeing:
Nikko and Kamakura

Maybe seeing:
Hakone +Fuji-Q Highland + Fuji Five Lakes

You've seen most of the major sites, why not try Nagano region? Matsumoto, Takayama, Shirakawago and Kamikochi are all very interesting and worth seeing.

Akihabara (IT, Gadgets, Maid bars & anime) are the usual spot for those travel to Tokyo. Other Tokyo areas that are equally important include:

-Asakusa - Famous temple & souvenir stalls surrounding the temple + Tokyo Skytree
- Shinjuku - Mix of everything + the largest rail hub
- Shibuya - Famous crossing, fashion city & the famous dog statue
- Harajuku - Jpop-Kpop. anime & pasar malam style stalls.
- Ueno - Park & Zoo
- Ginza /Tokyo main stn - The Palace ground, old district & shopping district
- Odaiba- Island wth the famous Giant Gundam, 1 all & Fuji TV Stn. (Also very close to Daimon (Tokyo Tower- Eiffel Tower copycat)
- Disneyland

Actually my initial plan is included Matsumoto, Takayama, Shirakawago and Kamikochi, after that i find out the travelling cost for these area is expensive, and limited train. This time i go to see sakura, different spot from autumn trip. Planning to cover Tokyo, kawaguchi, nagoya, kyoto, osaka, yoshino, kobe,... kansai area.

If you're travelling around Nagano, then renting a car is quite affordable assuming you are travelling with other people.

Nissan Latio cost around 7000JPY per day. Pick up from Nagano.
