Hi Guys,

Anyone use WiFibaby pocket wifi before in Japan? Specifically Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka and Nara? Wondering if their speed are reliable and good?

So far their pocket wifi is the cheapest I have search for at RM6/day

Itami currently handle domestic flight only.

AAX already announced flight cancellation to/from Osaka until this Saturday, while Cathay Pacific cancelled up till next Monday.
*
if you are taking ANA from KL...there’s a transit at either Narita or Haneda and then fly to Itami airport

and that makes it domestic flight

Ya my flight was diverted last week to Itami frm Haneda for dec flight, is but return frm KiX, is it normal to change frm time to time?
*
is it normal to reschedule from time to time...that i am not sure since I have never had the chance to fly ANA to japan yet

you have to constantly check the schedule to ensure no surprises...but rarely if everything is ok (i.e good weather)

What's your opinion on visiting Japan, specifically Tokyo and Kyoto in the winter months of Jan or Feb?

What are the challenges in this sort of visit for Msians apart from the winter clothing?

don't forget proper winter boots/shoes

ANA & JAL does not have direct flight from KUL to KIX
You must see wrongly, missed the +1
+1 means 1 stop at Haneda

From my experience and my friends experiences, usually the flight reached a bit earlier and by the time we got out it was around 10 or 1030 and taking the limo helps as you dont need to change trains and lug luggage around which might make it worst.
*
without using any train Passes, indeed limo is good option

All Ryokan Onsen are very expensive. RM700 - 1200 per night
But they do open daytime for those non accommodation people.  About 800 - 2000 Yen

You can try Goshobo at Arima Onsen (11:00 - 14:00) open for non accommodation
1600 Yen per entry.
*
the wakayama onsen you are referring to is shirahama ?

i have that in my itinerary as well...but it's a bit far from osaka....

arima vs shirahama...in your opinion which one more worth the effort ?

Hi guys ,

Flying off to Osaka via AA , 2.00pm today.
Hope thing r going ok over there.

Update & sharing as at 1.29 am Osaka time zone.

AA landed at KIX around 8.40pm.
6 hour flight time.
Shuttle to the main airport.
Clear custom & immigration before 10.30 pm.
Not crowded.
Bought T & G card at station, and took Nankai train to Namba.
Journey duration 47 min, like MRT.
Then took subway to my Airbnb apartment at Sakugawara.
Reached my destination around 12.00 midnight Malaysia Time.
Direction in English ,pretty clear and good.

Weather humid.

Hope the above help those who having this concern.

Good nite
*
8:40pm...arrive before 9:30pm is good news

so can at least choose nankai train instead of only left with last choice - limo bus
