There's still some availability but you'll need to do some digging Fukuoka and Nagoya have plenty of availability around the $800 mark,…

I'm not much of a shopper but I've also done Japan about eight times and am exclusively carry on only My loadout weighs about 5.5kg fully…

This could take a one-way business class flight from Osaka to Mel/Syd down to about $1600 and Tokyo to Mel/Syd down to about $1800. Would…

Book direct with the airline for far less drama when things don't go to plan

SQ is excellent, Fukuoka is excellent. Nice deal.

I'd do SQ at that price every single time and it's not even a remotely close decision

I did Japan this May with a 5.5kg carry on only. Wear your heaviest clothes on the plane and be prepared to do laundry every four days or…

If you're willing to layover you can get it a heap cheaper with another premium airline. I just booked CI economy to Okinawa (cos I love…

SQ and CX also fly to HND I'd have CX/SQ to HND/KIX as #2 then CX/SQ to NRT as #2.5 Don't forget OKA as well. Bit trickier to get to but…

Yep that's fair, I didn't consider the detour aspect

If you're flying just the direct SYD-HND route then go ANA. If you're intending to connect to elsewhere in Japan then transit in Singapore.…

I thought you were going to link this video https://youtu.be/6cMwEiFJMpE?si=IPE0Hz50V5TleDnN

Still have to meet the minimum number of flights on VA metal

Ana don't fly out of Melb so it'll have to be with someone else

Yep that's the difference between a layover and a stopover

Where a flight from A-B-C is cheaper than just the flight from A-B. Get off at B and don't board the B-C flight. Can't do checked baggage,…

I've seen it cheaper - $1 a can in Japan

Their other chipotle in adobo sauce in a jar is pretty good

I find this one to be quite flavourless tbh

and its pretty heavy too for a packable bag at 400g

I have an updown and a desky, can confirm zero wobble with both. Although I do prefer the desky, the worktop is a much nicer finish.

All I can think of here is the Quagmire BGE skit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cMwEiFJMpE

because it doesn't include the direct Tokyo-Osaka Tokaido shinkansen, only the Tokyo-Tsuruga (from next week) Hokuriku shinkansen then the…

Grab a connector hose and a 2.6kg CO2 cylinder, you come out in front as soon as you refill the CO2 cylinder for the first time (6.5 times…

The Japanese version is gold tier and the Aussie brewed stuff is utter garbage

100% If you have BDB go with a DF64 or the Eureka Mignon Specialita SGP doesn't do the BDB justice

Renting a vehicle is flat out insane in Japan (unless you're doing something way off the beaten path like Okinawa)

plus MEL

Normally 1x20 for ANA and JAL, but if you're just doing the golden route it's easier and better to take the train instead. It's also far…
