It is 2 pieces of 23kg each. Means max can carry 46kg..

Personally I would take a direct flight and avoid the hassle of a transit. Furtheremore I can save the money for shopping later. Its a personal preference really.

Although ANA is better than MAS but not to say MAS very bad. Its just ANA is better. But ur case i would take direct flight save the money, time and energy. Transit make me more fatigue. And 500 i will take it to buy 1 G-Shock. Hehe...

This is a no brainer, MAS is not bad at all, just not excellent. There's no reason to spend more time, money and energy just to experience ANA.

Is bus (travelling between Sapporo-Hakodate) safe to ride during midnight especially in winter?

Yes and bus will travel very slow specially night time to avoid bumpy ride

Thank you!
I'm comparing the price between riding train and buses to/from Sapporo-Hakodate.
I haven't decide whether to get Hokkaido JR Pass (5-Day or 4 Days flexi). What's your recommendation ?

taking train or airport limousine better from haneda to shibuya?

airport limousine is double the price of train tho

reaching haneda at 10pm

If you taking AA, get ready for any delay flight. Is best to take train for cost saving as train operates until 11.30pm if I'm not mistaken. Else you can opt to stay nearby Haneda for that night, then only move to city centre on the next day.

I'm taking SIA, already booked accommodation at Shibuya

If that's the case, take Keikyo-Kuko line to Shinagawa station, change Yamanote line to Shibuya. Cost around JPY580/pax. Approximate 45 minutes to travel.

to who visit nagoya before 16th Dec, can go here take a look

Train are best option. If u want save budget, take night bus.

Is not about what airline, 10pm are peak time at Haneda International terminal. Alot airline reach same time and custom clearance will be long. Plus have to see luck too, if landing at Runway 23, then you are fxxx...from runway 23 to International terminal need 35 minute on ground taxing.

Train are best option, if cannot catch last train, limousine bus are only option.

Hey I got a question, do you have a place where you're going to stay during your trip?

I'm making a mock up of how much the trip would cost, and I cant find any good places to stay that comes with an ensuite bathroom.

Mind sharing your accommodation plans?

Can't really help there, all my ski holidays I've always only been able to afford places with shared toilet & shared bathroom.

Next month I'm going to Akakura Onsen / Myoko Kogen, tentatively staying at Kotobukiro which also is all shared bathroom rooms

Hi , Question to those who drove inter state in Japan regarding toll.
Do you guys buy the unlimited toll pass?

I was about to book a car from Tocool! site for 3 days.
Found they have unlimited pass . 3 days for 9000 yen.

Any one use it before? Any restriction on which expressway cant use?

My plan was to drive from Tokyo - Nagano - Shirakawako - Lake Kawaguchiko - Tokyo
Initially thinking to use CEP, but it has restriction on certain highway cant be use , but looking at Tocool one , like cant really believe it has unlimited highway use. So just wanna confirm is it really too good to be true.
