I am pretty sure ANA don't fly to Malaysia. Cause I liked to take the Dreamliner too, but expensive as no direct flight.

JAL codeshare with MAS and vice versa.

The actual flight is JL724 and JL723 (MH9118 and MH9117), MH88 and MH89 (JL7090 and JL7091).

ya confirm no direct flight, need transit sweat.gif

Radiation takes 200 years to clear. So you no need go Japan for rest of your life if worry that much.

200years is too short... it need 10k+ years

and if the radiation is too severe, in the next 10years...
the entire japan's north east population will die of cancer
and those baby will be born with genetic mutation...

Anyone booked flights with Peach airlines before? I'm trying to book my flight via their website and it keeps coming up error processing my payment. Ask me to change CC or use another payment method which is Peach points (which I don't have). Have tried few CCs and still same error message.

I booked b4, didn't face this prob
should be very easy

but beware, peach didn't hv account registration
the login name or password i think is based on the booking number, I forget long time ago

I have rented many cars in Japan. Both Nissan and Toyota rentacars are fine, with Toyota being a bit cheaper. Book via Tocoo for a nice discount.

i booked via tocoo oso... and the other one is ots

remember most of the online car rental is available in japanese only
the most preferably way to book is via email... and telephone call to confirm
ohh warning they have limited english capability, especially speaking

i done mostly via phone, coz i can call to 10 countrys for free brows.gif
