Well yesterday I was at Klook Fest.
1 hr before the USJ b1f1 were 2 other b1f1. The crowd we just so so and I thought surely got change to be top100. But when reach USJ’s turn the crowd Swell up massively. That’s how popular it is.

Yeah. USJ is one of the main attraction in Osaka. Personally I still prefer Disneyland and DisneySea over USJ anytime.

Managed to tag along with Jason and we got our USJ Express Tickets with 20% discount. rclxm9.gif

I guess I have pre-purchased whatever I can. Other stuff can only buy when I'm in Japan.

Anyway, friend wants to try out kimono, anybody tried out with any of the Klook's rental services? In Kyoto if possible.

Thanks for buying. Together/combined we have about 18% saving on the express ticket. Which is quite a good amount of saving.

Yeah, it was a good deal. thumbup.gif Can now go happily for our vacation.

I think RegentCid was referring to the unread messages in this thread not his PM inbox.. Unless I misunderstood his meaning.

I'm not so a girlish type.. I'm thinking to skip kimono, but she insists. laugh.gif

Haha, no offense to RegentCid, just curious about it.

I see, I see. Well take it this way, if you ever have to go for a proper kimono experience once in ur life, there is none other than Kyoto to do it. Tho I read it can be uncomfortable for some women who are not used to constricting clothes.

Speaking of which, why are these promos focus on USJ? Disneyland& Sea don't have? Or Disney don't allow 3rd parties?

Yes for questions 1 & 3.

For question 2, I think you may be right but can't be 100% sure

Further to question 1 regarding "Can I purchase Haruka using Kansai One Pass?"...

I found out ICOCA only works on JR lines where Nankai is not a JR line, so technically you can't use ICOCA to pay for a Nankai Limited express ticket? hmm.gif

ICOCA does not work on JR lines only, it works on all lines.

HOWEVER...

You cannot use your ICOCA to pay for the Nankai Ltd Express ticket as it falls into the category of trains that require a limited express surcharge.

Thanks!

My plane is arriving at 920 p.m at night and I hope I can make it for the Limited express last train at 10.55pm. If I could not make it, I would have to take the normal Express train and I hope there won't be many people else gotta stand the whole way, also there's no dedicated storage space sad.gif

Another question:

After touchdown, I need to purchase 2 things:

1) Kansai One Pass at JR West ticket office
2) Nankai Limited express/normal

Is the nankai ticket office at the same place as the JR West ticket office?

Apparently, the JR West ticket office is located at the airport station next to the airport (need to cross bridge).

If JR West office is too far away, I will just buy normal Icoca card. Discounts may not be that important for me.

You can buy from KKDay or Klook or Disney themselves. Not much difference in price. The crowds are really crazy in Disneyland, everyday. Even before the park opens, you can see scores of people queing up line by line (with tickets) outside already.

Yeah that's what I meant. Even at travel sites like Klook or what, doesn't seem to have crazy discounts or something, like for USJ.

But crowds like this? Everyday? Wow.

Sifu RegentCid, for May 2020 travel to Tokyo, is it too early to book accommodation now? Is it correct to say that some hotels have yet to open reservation yet and thus not listed in booking sites like agoda, etc? Thanks

IMO, for Japan, need to book as soon as it's available
Rooms usually sell out very fast, sometimes even up to 1 year in advance hmm.gif
