I'd suggest you get DisneySea tickets here before you go. I reach DisneySea 8.15am and the queue to buy ticket is long! Few websites to buy tickets actually.

The extra few minutes for you saved from buying ticket over the counter can save you alot of time for the game queues.
I rent my place last year Oct or Nov, just came back last week, no problem whatsoever. If you are really worried, can always go for the recommendations on first page.

Btw, I'm very much hooked to the culture there! I miss Japan! Anyone wants to go to Tokyo with strangers for a new experience, do let me know! I'm looking for people to go along!

My initial date is 31st August until 4th of September.

Hi,

Planning to visit Osaka + kyoto on late December. Currently shortlisted airline MAS (Direct flight) VS ANA (1 Transit), Any other options?

ANA or JAL ftw

For accommodation, do you guys use Airbnb service? If yes, do you encounter any issue?

airbnb shouldn't be an issue...

Thanks in advance rclxms.gif

Haha, exactly my reaction when my friend told me. But when he showed me the itinerary, it is actually doable. laugh.gif
My friend did show me his itinerary. It is actually doable. The RM2200++ is for flight, accommodations, transports, meals. Yes come to think of it, RM2200 is abit too tough. My friend suggested me to expand a little to RM2500 to make it more enjoyable. brows.gif

I do have plans on buying stuff whilst in Tokyo. tongue.gif
*
it's doable...

let's do some simple math with assumptions:
Flight return = rm1000 (air asia ?)

then you are left with rm1500, divided by 5 days = rm300 per day

rm300 per day inclusive of accommodation + food + transport + shoppings ?

let say accommodation per night = rm100 (hostel to share with 10 other ppl ?), 4 nights =rm400

you are left with rm1100, divided by 5 days = rm220 per day (average rm30 per meal)

can shop with CC but...

good luck

p/s: try with budget of rm2.5 and let us know whether you've experienced the true japan or not

RM886 with Vietnam Airlines. Where got 3/4?
RM886 for flight, RM400 for accommodations, have around 30k yen to spend. One day approx 7500yen to use, quite decent living.

The purpose of this budget trip is to experience the local life, not spend like nobody's business.. laugh.gif of course I wouldn't enjoy as much as those who spend more, but they don't get to experience what I gone through too..
*
huh...who said anything bout spending like nobody's business ?

spend enough to enjoy fully and experience the local culture is not equivalent to spending lavishly...hence i said let us (or at least myself) know the experience once you went with limited budget

i've been to japan few times and yet still can't get enough of their local cultures etc...too much food have yet to try etc...with limited budget i don't see how i can achieve, prolly i am dumb

Ahh but its indeed a risk laugh.gif in my first trip, landed 30min earlier than expected but was stuck in immigration for pretty long. We managed to catch the last train (my friend said so). Perhaps it'll also have to depend which day of the week you land, as I believe the train operates differently on a weekday/ weekend.
Hmmm but early Sept is the start of autumn. If you're looking towards experiencing fall, it has to be the peak season hmm.gif

based on past years experience...koyo in kansai area is at the peak during early Nov - early Dec...and AA fares during this period is expensive, hence i rather take ANA or JAL

Prepare your second plan. From my previous experience, if its a lot of people, it will take around 1-2 hours. Prepare some spare cash for taxi or even limousine bus., or worst come to wosrt, just stay overnight in airport  smile.gif

i remember there are trains running till 12am...unless the schedule has changed
