Would it be better to take the train or flight from kyoto to tokyo?

Last time I took night bus. Save money and time

I seconded that. I would take the bus just for the sake of enjoying the journey, but then it might be a bit difficult for my 6 months old niece. So maybe we'll be taking the bus and my sister and her husband together with the baby will be taking the flight or train. Most probably the flight. Any suggestions for the airline for kyoto-tokyo?

Kyoto dont have any Airport.
Nearest are Osaka Itami Airport.
Then also need change to bus to Kyoto again from Itami Airport.

Btw flight are 30 minute and cost are Rm800 per pax from ANA or JAL.

Flight or bus you thnk your self

the market will be closed down in Nov 2016...

I see. Noted. Thank you so much for the info. Only my sister won't be taking the bus. She's afraid the baby would disturb the others throughout the 8 hours journey if she also takes the bus.

I've used the AirAsia flight last year. Already planned to stay the night at the airport. But the flight arrived on time. And immigration was super fast and I had no baggage. So I hopped onto the monorail and connected to the Yamanote line to go to Shinjuku. Spent the night at a capsule hotel there. Your only issue I guess is whether the flight gets delayed or not. Expect no delay when you are already at the airport as everything there is super efficient

Today you still live in 2015.
Plus moving part are Inner Market. Outer Market still remain.

Can PM me in advance? I tomolo bringing parents in law tsukiji but lazy to queue so long for dai/daiwa.

I'm going next week. Based in Ikebukuro. Where to makan sushi in Tsukiji? I hate long queues and don't need 'famous' restaurants. For me, sushi in Haneda airport was good.

My new #1 favorite Tokyo attraction of all time!!!



Yes. That is a girl, riding a dinosaur, doing battle with another girl riding a metal robot dinosaur with multi barrel chain gun. HELL YEAH JAPAN!
