QUOTE(swn525 @ Feb 22 2018, 09:03 AM) i have experienced on that, last 2 years kansai customs still using old method, take around 2 hours to clear custom come out already 12am left bus only, airport information counter still working, can ask them which exit to take bus need buy ticket at the bus stop area first, then only queue wait for bus bus only stop in selected area, last time my hotel in shin-osaka, bus stop in Umeda, after that take taxi, many taxi are waiting in the Umeda bus stop area yea, so does osaka capsule hotel accept late check in as in 1am to 2am?

QUOTE(lyc1982 @ Feb 25 2018, 10:43 PM) how many days are you going ? got kyoto in between...hmmm i agree with sweet_pez 18 days. Travelling on 2 Nov - 19 Nov. Enough to fit Kyoto in between Will probably spend 3 nights at Kyoto. Taking it slow and easy as we're bringing our kid with us on this trip. Not going to rush on this trip else we won't enjoy it.

Yes with kids you will have to do it even slower/leisure style.

Or take a bus to Tokyo station for 1000yen - http://accessnarita.jp/en/home/
