Are you using a new passport? My friend kena tahan and had to open her bag for checking. I went earlier than her and had no problem and she had to check her bag. I assume her passport is brand new.

I’m planning of buying the Surutto Kansai 2 Day Ticket and Kansai Wide Area for my trip later.

Here are my latest plan
D1-Arrive KIX *Night
D2-Osaka
D3-KYOTO (Kansai Thru Pass 2 day tix)
D4-Nara (Kansai Thru Pass 2 day tix)
D5-Kobe (Kansai Wide Area Pass)
D6-Arashiyama (Kansai Wide Area Pass)
D7-Kinosaki Onsen (Kansai Wide Area Pass)
D8-?? Undecided between Mt. Koya or Wakayama (Kansai Wide Area Pass)
D9-Last day, Night Flight

Is it feasible or worth for me to buy passes? Kindly recommend which are more suitable. Do recommend any places that i should go to as well, im still undecided on what to do on Day 8.

Thank you in advance!

Not possible also. My passport was a brand new. First stamp is from Japan immigration. No check. I passed the checking counter like less than 5 minutes. He just asked to take off my cap, thats all. And it was 21st Oct.

That's the fastest route.

Gotemba is like the interchange place to change buses. Because buses in Kawaguchiko don't go all the way to Hakone (vice versa)

Arrived Narita
Bight sunny and cool weather
Limo bus to Tokyo and pocket WiFi works very well

No snow ? I saw news aldy started snowing

Guys for temp in Tokyo and Hokkaido in April

I pressume wind breaker for tokyo should be enough ? Last time did the same for my Korea spring .....

How bout Hokkaido ? It varies from 3 to 11 and sometimes snow too. Do I need to buy winter clothes here or jus buy at Japan ? As aldy off season there should be cheaper right ?

That was cause by cold stream. 1 day snowing only.
November still spring. Snowing usually still Jan - Feb
