Hi guys..
Is it currently possible to travel to japan?
My trip supposed to be next month but untill now didnt receive any information regarding flight status from airasia..

really? U mean they closed before and open again?

I prefer AirAsia for Japan trip 

Now all those AAX ticket holders can just wait for the restructuring to get back our flight money... sad sad

Japan will lift its entry ban on non-resident foreign nationals from 106 countries including Britain, India and the United States starting on Friday, the government said, as part of procedures to gradually ease Covid-19 restrictions.
The policy change, however, will not drastically change Japan’s pandemic-induced strict border controls, as it will continue to suspend the validity of visas issued before December 2 except for diplomats, spouses of Japanese nationals and permanent residents, among others.
Visas will not be issued, in principle, unless those seeking to enter Japan fall under “exceptional circumstances,” such as visits to those who are seriously ill or for funerals. Foreign tourists remain banned from entering Japan.
Japan looks to ease Covid-19 border rules even as citizens support foreigner ban
Of the 106 subject to the change, announced by the Foreign Ministry on Wednesday, the list includes Asian countries such as Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mongolia, the Philippines and Thailand as well as European countries such as France, Germany, Italy and Spain.
Countries no longer subject to the entry ban will also include Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, as well as Latin American and African nations such as Brazil, Chile, Morocco and Tunisia.
The latest move comes in line with Japan’s easing on April 1 of its travel warning for the 106 nations because of the pandemic, with Japanese nationals no longer recommended against visiting these areas.
The ministry lowered its advisory from the second-highest Level 3 on its four-point scale to Level 2, under which Japanese citizens are asked to refrain from all non-essential overseas travel.

finally some good news, saw some news said japan will open border on june, hope can travel to japan asap

unable to post the url, maybe due to chinese source
can try google "日本 6月 入境限制"

AAX will resume flights to HND and KIX soons

I see, I guess their govt also have the "Lek lu, Sap kok lu" mindset.

From my understanding the transit traffic to US/Europe via HND/NRT seems to be good due to the fact other market are quite restrictive (eg Hong Kong & Taipei) since they are not so strict about allowing transit pax through.

I find it funny that Airasia says it will start its flight to Tokyo having promo from July 14th, but I can't find any ticket available for August.

I know Japan isn't open to tourist yet but Scoot already started its flight from SG to Tokyo

Before Covid, I used to pay RM$1900 for Singapore Airlines to Osaka. Now it's double the price

sharing a video i found semi useful. hope this helps. some tips on travelling on shinkansen with big luggage. 

some of the comments here very helpful for my jp planning, which i only have less than 2 months to plan for my 2 weeks itinerary. just bought my tix to go end of next month. hope i dont regret this cold timing to go.

Winter is nice the first time, after a while, the novelty wears off. Too wet, too cold, daylight hours also super short

Prefer spring or autumn

Flights in general gone up 50% - 100%

Gone are the days where japan return tickets can get less than RM700 return

You see airasia also not cheap anymore

Inflation mang, also recession inkambing
