1. I prefer digital since can complete everything back at home and faster to go through immi and custom. This only apply to inbound, outbound no need.

2. For tax free again can use the visit japan web to register all your info and will give qr code for you too like immi and custom. If not mistaken now tax free will need to be done in airport rather than individual shop starting 2025 cause a lot of c country ppl abuse the system. But im not sure accurate or not.

3. For tokyo most of the place accept cashless like cc, suica. But some places like ramen shop only accept cash so better take some. If need extra cash can just withdraw from 7/11 atm. No need paypay, afaik pay pay need japan phone no to register.

4. You can only choose one physical or on iphone. Once linked, the physical no longer can use.

Paypay can just use TouchNGo app lah

Since you just travelling alone, i suggest to just stay in business hotel like toyoko / sotetsu inn to save some money. The extra money can spend on food

Hi guys if I were to plan a airasia flight arrival at osaka and departure from tokyo, I need to book 2 one-way ticket?

Any downside of that other than the more expensive fare?

just select multi city instead of round trip, then the option to select which city you departing from appears

Yup that what I did initially, but it leads me to kiwi.com which has pretty bad reputation according to reddit, just wondering is it the same if i purchase 2x 1 way tickets

can any sifu kindly explain how this kind of 1 hour layover work?

won't there be risk of delay or missed flight?!

1 Hour Transit Time from Domestic to International...conlafirm missed flight. By 2210 the Boarding will be start. You only got 30 Minute go thru entire Terminal, Go thru Custom, Had to take Stupid Transit Bus to International Satellite Terminal Building. Conlanfirm Cannot

Even 0.001% you success........your luggage also won't follow you to Japan. Next day had to come to Kansai airport again to collect your luggage.

Then how come MAS still go ahead with such schedule?

That’s the part I canot understand

Business class passenger can because MAS got chauffeur with BMW 7 series for it. Direct to Aircraft Gate.
Business class passenger luggage got priority tag, last in first out from aircraft + Business class passenger got Fast Track custom lane.
