QUOTE(cristiano7mu @ Sep 24 2010, 12:35 AM) Is air asia the only low cost airline in our region entering Japan at the moment?? No. Cebu Pacific entered Japan quite a while ago, to Kansai airport. However, Air Asia entrance is significant because the airport is Haneda. Haneda is the busiest airport in Japan and its slots are precious.

For Osaka to Kobe, you can take 新快速 (Shin-Kaisoku) from Osaka station to Sannomiya station (main station in Kobe). It takes about 20-something minutes.
This is operated by JR.

QUOTE(sha.sakurai @ Oct 10 2010, 10:29 PM) as for now.. i had no idea but i just wanted to visit Kobe if possible.. haha.. any suggestions? another question.. how far is Kobe to Himeji then? and what transport should i use.. i mean, the station that i need to get from and off too.. Himeji station (JR) can be reached both by Shin-Kaisoku or Shinkansen. According to timetable.... Shin-Kaisoku takes about 1 hour + from either Shin-Osaka or Osaka station. Shinkansen takes about 34 minutes using Kodama service.
