And does anybody have the Kyoto bus schedule, that would be great. Google maps doesn't adhere to bus routes, so i'm not sure exactly how to check on buses.

Appreciate any feedback that you guys can reply to. Really hope I don't bungle this up because wife will definitely kill me. THANKS GUYS !

Hi all,

Need advice on SIM card / pocket wifi for my Osaka trip. 10days. Preferably unlimited data SIM.

Any recommendations from where to get?

Thanks!

I used this for 7 days, but you will need the 15 days. You get 220MB at 4G speed renewed each day. It drops to a lower speed if you used pass 220mb
7 days is ¥2500 and 15 days is ¥4000
You can get it only from the vending machine at KIX - just go all the way left when you get out of Customs. I think there is a Starbucks or Coffeebean just opposite the machines. None of the shops sells it.

you need to choose between nano and micro sim. dunno why japan so low tech, why they dont have one card for all type like Thailand. also choose the number of days. There is a money changing machine next to it but if you got a bigger bills, then this machine cant change for you. instead look behind you and you will find another machine that can change 5K, 10K yen

There are other vending machines selling other brands but for me this is most suitable and cheapest

hi, can anybody share their experience of process time of immigration and baggage claim in Haneda Airport ? My ETA is 10.30pm. I am not worried about catching the train of Keikyu Line but I am worried I might missed the Toei Line (Shinjuku to Nishi Shinjuku).

Is the process of exiting the Airport fast ? can be done under 40 minutes ?

you can always take the airport bus limo to shinjuku. it runs pass midnight

anyone added their Suica IC Card to their iPhone or Apple Watch?

1. If I setup a new card in Apple Pay - I assume there wont be a ¥500 deposit
2. And if I transfer my card's credit to Apple Pay, will the ¥500 deposit be now converted to usable credit?

Thanks all sifu
