Anybody successfully get full refund from AA due to flight cancellation by them? My refund request was processed on 11 March but till today, the case status is "In Progress"

AirAsia already losing billion ringgit already. Most of the airlines company don't had money anymore. Sure will hold your refund until airline back into business.
Cathay Pacific this kind of 5 star Airlines also cancel refund policy, they only allow changing date.

Anyone knows the usual closing period for Usuzan Ropeway at Lake Toya in January/February next year?

The closing period for maintenance seems unpredictable from year to year.

Or is there a specific timing that I do not know of?

Japan still no lockdown. So JAL & ANA won't refund or backdated.
Malaysia lockdown is not thier problem. (Because Japanese / Foreigners in Malaysia still can go Japan)

Singapore & Japan no lockdown thier country. Flight still as usual.

Very Important Info here:

Today I just found out a nice web introduce by my Japanese friend.

As everyone know Japan are very high commit suicide country. Most of Airbnb property in Japan are commit suicide property.
In Japan once anyone death inside, the value will drop & no one will wanted to stay inside so landlord had to covert it into Airbnb property and rented it out for Foreigners.
So they can earn money to pay installment.

This website will show you which property / placed had commit suicide cases.
http://www.oshimaland.com/

For those which believed superstition stuff can checked from this website before you booked any Airbnb or Hotel. smile.gif

Now with Tokyo Olympics postpone 1 year, they no longer have reasons to keep the lid tight. Expect an explosion of "suddenly appearing" cases soon.

US request Japan doing Mass test on Japan citizen and Japan Govt rejected it. Without true covid-19 data, US issue health alert on Japan for US citizen.

Anyone saw the email from Tony AA? So yea, they are aware of all the complains on their social media page. The refund / credit account will take up to 16 weeks which is 4 months.  blink.gif
*
All airlines are facing financial problem since pandemic. I think Tony had to borrow money from Bank / get aid from Govt. These process take times
Once AirAsia received the fund, they had to start process those refund customers which up to millions people.

Better than Cathay Pacific already. Cathay totally no refund because company had no more money, only got reschedule.

Same bro. My flight too on July. Japan has suspended free visa.
Maybe can ask AA if can refund due to this or not.

https://www.mofa.go.jp/ca/fna/page4e_001053.html
Same here. Still haven't cancelled. Plan to cancel by mid May before fully charge. Let's see how
Ya, damn sad. Not sure are we totally banned or still can apply.

Temporary Visa Cancel was due to Covid-19. Japan got alot of weird Law, Example, Japan does't had any law such as MCO, So Japav Govt had to used Emergency State Law to contain them which is Country at War code. Same as this, Japan dont had any law to closed down airport, so Govt just cancel whole world Visa Free, So no one can entering Japan.

Mana tau I got some friends say I very optimistic and brave, that the covid situation won’t be resolved by then cos no vaccine.

What do you guys think, surely we won’t be so suay that 10 months from now still travel restrictions, right?

Japan cases rising rapidly and people still working, no one care about the sh!t. People still line up for FF7 Remake & Animal Crossing.
Game more important than Covid-19.

You can watch Shibuya crossing Live at here. Now 10pm still alot people on street.

They could easily be given the next open slot hence it won't be for nothing but by then Abe's term as PM would be over. His popularity is riding on hosting Olympics.

A good drone video about Tokyo under Emergency State.
Shooting by China 8k Raw Team. This team are one of rare foreigners had license to fly drone inside Japan. Even Japan big local news such as NHK also don't had drone license to fly inside Tokyo. Alot Japan news had to rent Helicopter to do news coverage from sky. Helicopter Company (My working company tongue.gif )

Just hold it on until closer to departure date where they will adjust the policy else you loose everything now if you action it now.

Also not to mention they still had the 14 days quarantine for arrival into Japan as well as other member pointed out that the free visa thing for Malaysia is gone at the moment.

Japan already cancel whole world Visa. Without Visa, cannot entry Japan. Current only Japan citizen can entry plus 14 days qurantine.

Hello guys, after 2 amazing Japan trips I had previously, I plan to visit Japan again!! I have visited Toyama, Kurobe, Matsumoto, Osaka, Kyoto, Tateyama, Nagoya, Tokyo these places. I need some of experiences from you guys.

I am currently looking at some of the amazing view attraction like Kamikochi ( my wife liked it sooooo much ) or something like Alpine route that kind of Splendid scenery.

I'm thinking of few places, but do suggest me if you experienced nice scenery which is a really must go.

1) Tokushima prefecture - Kochi, Kagawa, Ehime.
2) Fukuoka prefecture - Kitakyushu
3) Kumamoto & Miyazaki prefecture - Including Kagoshima
4) Ishigaki island
5) Okinawa.

Not plan to visit Hokkaido/ Aomori prefecture as I believe I will visit Japan during non winter season. ( most likely Autumn or Cherry Blossom season ).  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif
*
If you been to Kamikochi, then there are no more hiking route in Japan can beat it already. Based on my experience, only China Yunnan can overtake it (amazing view attraction + Splendid scenery). After been so many country in world, so far still can't find a hiking route that can beat Yunnan.

Based on your list, I will go Shikoku. It more reserve, alot nature path.
