Yup. Suprisingly many are still flocking to Japan even with the expensive airfare right now. My SG friends are the most kiasu because they were the earliest to go to Japan after it reopens.

smart to go once they reopen
getting colder now and picture is at kyoto....not even tokyo(which should be colder)

Speaking of theme parks, I’m seeing from trip blogs and etc that Disney and USJ is super crowded cos of revenge travel, anyone here who’s visited lately? I see some others say USJ is like 2hr queue for each ride without fast pass.

Before covid already like that

Don't expect to even be able to get on every ride or attractions or show
It's impossible
Some shows are happening simultaneously so it's impossible you split your body 2 place at once

AA, bought it during the 21% discount period few days ago on an impulse. I dont mind flight delay but please please dont reschedule lol
*
how much did u paid?

my experience it's not gonna cancel or reschedule because it's gonna always be a full flight(that's before covid) because there's only 1 flight per day

Is this deal better than buying at the airport? What's the best telco card to get for Osaka/Kyoto/Kobe region?
*
Not sure which one is a better telco
I notice nobody talked about this before

But this is definitely cheaper than what's sold at shopee which is already cheap to begin with
Getting your sim card here eliminated the need to worry about getting sim card at JP if you're worried about your arrival time
And no need to give your passport too
Just arrived and activate your simcard

For MHUpgrades, i just did a minimum bid of RM890 for business class for return leg NRT-KUL.

I wonder what is the likelihood of being accepted? any1 has experience on this? would it be easier to ask for it at the counter for the upgrade?

someone in kopitiam created a thread mentioning this like last week

authentic as in 500 yen sento? laugh.gif nowadays most of them >1k yen are more like spa centres
*
not price problem...expensive for me nvm
but it has to be authentic and near station...that's all

the cheapest i found are actually free but it's located nowhere near train station
and there seem to be quite a lot that's free provided you're willing to travel there

and yes, the more common one aren't onsen at all, more like spa center
