Hi All,
I am off to Japan next week for 3 days before I move to Australia for the ashes.
I Know we have a couple of Japan based R's on here.
I will be staying at the Intercontinental - ANA -Tokyo.
Flying to one airport and out from another.
Also any Melbourne or Sydney Rs who have any good tips would be much appreciated
Thanks |  | | |  |

Going to Japan tomorrow for the holidays and knew I’d find something good here. Thanks Me Sheen and the LFW cognoscenti! |  | | |

Smartphones have undermined the value of experience as in other things, but the pound is mysteriously stronger than it was then. Local prices have been rising for the first time in over 30 years, but now you only have to knock off three noughts and multiply by five to get the £ prcice, of knock off two noughts and halve it. Cardless payment prevalent in almost every area except public transport where you generally have to buy a ticket from a machine with cash…the tap and go terminals are for their Oyster equivalent only. Look for the gates that have a little slot to put your ticket it and remember to pick it up again.
The documentary “Salaryman” on (I think) Amazon Prime is a great introduction of the Tokyo I know pretty well. [Post edited 23 Dec 2024 14:11]

If it hasn't already been mentioned above, buy your bullet train pass before arriving through the JR website. Then activate it upon artival. Then when and as you use it,book your seat the day before. |  |
