Hi,
I will be traveling to Osaka (fly in and out from kansai airport) from 12/4/2024 to 23/4/2024. Will visit Osaka and nearby area with my wife.

1. My travel date already skip the super peak season right? After school holiday, cheery blossom season. And before golden week.
2. Any recommendations area (or specific hotel or airbnb still ok?) for staying? Easy to travel around, budget low to mid.

Thanks in advance

one of the hotel said that the shuttle bus will drop off the passengers at the Fourth Floor of Terminal 1.

so, checking with you, can a bus really drop off passengers at the fourth floor?

from google street view, i saw there is an elevated road at the top floor of terminal 1.

Oh...4th floor will be Departure Level. Hotel Shuttle consider as private, similar to Our KLIA / KLIA2, direct drop at upper level ( Departure)
I tot you go Narita by public transport bus, then will be 1st Floor

Thanks a lot for the confirmation

It’s better to use Pasmo or Suica in Tokyo if wanna use with Apple Wallet? Can be easily reloaded with our credit cards. Thanks!

if im not wrong suica and pasmo doesnt really matter, both are fine to use. I personally use suica because I like the penguin , just a reminder that only mastercard works with both pasmo and suica reload atm. For some reason they take away the ability to top up with Visa.

amex works too

Last round I used Pasmo card and yes Suica looks nicer.
Thanks for the reminder not to use Visa.

Thanks for the tips.
