Depent which airline you taking. AirAsia I perfer Narita because I wont be rushing. AirAsia reach Haneda always nearly midnight. Rushing for train or bus. One mistake then fxxx.

If I taking Eva Air then I prefer Haneda. Reach on noon , no pressure on rushing. Near to Tokyo city.
*
from the time displayed
is it better to arrive at narita thn back with haneda?

Sabahan should fly BKI-TPE-NRT.
There're loads of LCC flying TPE-NRT/KIX.
Namely Peach Aviation, Vanilla Air, Scoot, Jetstar.

Best Airline from Taipei to Japan are Eva Air. So far there are no other line that can beat Eva Air to Japan.
The Fly routine so much, You can choose any time you wanted to arrived Japan.

Eva Air always my 1st choice to Japan  biggrin.gif

but that would increase the cost by alot...right?
fly from kk to taipei isn't cheap actually
not sure the TPE to narita though

KK to Taipei via AA, when promo can get RM99 one way.
Taipei to Tokyo/Osaka, when promo can get TWD3000 return.
Exclude meal & luggage.
Save u the trouble to fly 3+ hrs to KL & transit then fly 7+ hrs to reach Japan. Unless u really love flying & enjoy the extra 2000 miles of air travel.
*
i''ve travelled few time to taipei..all using promo price
never once i got RM99 1 way
its usually around 1XX...nearing 200..so add in its around 400 return
thn peach there....return another 866(if not wrong)...2970TWD 1 way
that its 1.2k/person
thats not cheap at all
now gotta find which route is cheapest
i can go kk to KL to HND
i think thats still the cheapest, just arrival time is bad

Hi,

They let you choose KUL-DMK-NRT and then HND - KUL?
Coz when I opted for this route, they say cannot and must choose the same route for both flights.  shakehead.gif
*
he bought KL to NRT and HND to KL
both are separated
so it only affects his KL to NRT, his HND to KL is unaffected

ohh, no wonder!
after much deliberation, i have decided to choose KUL-HND-KUL route.
although the arriving time sucks but the departure time is much better than Narita route (even better than NRT-DMK timing tongue.gif)
so, imma go one day earlier and stay hotel nearby haneda airport (toyoko inn seems affordable at this moment), have a good rest and have all day the next day to explore  icon_idea.gif

transiting in dmk and the long hours flight to nrt will be very much tiring. upon reaching will be 6-7ish am and have to explore tokyo already. i think by that time adee become zombie  rclxub.gif

this whole cancellation of NRT route will be a blessing in disguise to me. extra day in Tokyo and extra hours in the airport duty free  wub.gif
*
the 8 hours flight is for u to sleep
thats why me and other ppl prefer to fly to NRT

Depend country.
Example Taiwan, They totally not accept RM.

taiwan side dnt accept MYR
if change locally also bad rate due to bad relation between MYR and TWD
change to USD/SGD thn change to TWD will always have better rate
but RM33 for 1k yen is way better than local exchange rate

Technical Can but risky. Maybe that shop today target only receive rm10k. Let say that day yiu very unlucky....shop already reach 8k target already...means you only can change 2k to yen only.

So dont sell your current yen on your hand.
Do not do this way.
Example: you coming in with 30000 yen only.  But you leaving Japan with 100000yen. Custom know what shit you doing already.  If you are Japanese resonable. But you are Malaysian....no reason you will leave Japan with more Yen than you coming in.
Is iillegal for doing forex earning without license.
*
isnt that u only need to declare if you're going in with more yen but i dnt see any sign say pls declare if you're leaving with more than XXXX amount of yen
but the correct part of what u said is dnt change all back to MYR and change all at airport..because they may ran out
leave at least half just in case...better to becareful else later regret because of greed

I think any currency more than JPY1,000,000 equivalent brought in or taken out from Japan is required to declare to Custom.

Off course won't sell all and this is not greedy but to save cost. My budget done earlier was based on the rate of MYR30 to JPY1000, who knows our currency depreciated so rapidly in short period of time.
*
is also greedy because you're taking risk to change majority to lower currency
just like me wanna change most of my money to the lower rate of USD
if i change part by part...thats averaging
if my plan is to lum sump all at the lowest rate...is call taking risk and greed laugh.gif

That's odd. With the new link, I see his listings on a sidebar on the left. He has 6 listings in the same building.

Not in the Roppongi area. If you search for the Minowa metro station, his building is at the crossroad opposite the station.

The price went up a bit already at RM200+ a night. When I went in July, it was 170+.

ahhh...need to login to be able to view
204-222 for 2 person...4 person still RM400+

But no dryer though. That or it was the same machine and we didn't know how to operate it.
That's a nice location.

2 possible answer
1. the washer itself have dryer function(certain models have...expensive)
2. the bathroom itself is the dryer...u hang the cloth on the hanger on top of the bathtub...close the bathroom door and turn it on(thats how japanese dry their cloth)
