There are more ways to fly to Japan than ever, with new routes, new gateways and more flights being added. That’s good news! But more choices don’t necessarily make choosing the right flight any easier.
In this episode, we talk about new routes and increased capacity for flights to Japan… flying into Tokyo and home from Osaka… what an open-jaw ticket is & why nonstop isn’t always better … and how new flights to places like Sapporo and Okinawa can change the way you put a trip together.
We also get into domestic flights that may be available as part of an international ticket, turning a connection elsewhere in Asia into a stopover and some of the less obvious things to think about before you hit the Buy button.
Because the best flight isn’t necessarily the cheapest flight, the shortest flight or even the nonstop flight. It’s the one that works best with the Japan trip you want to take.
