Preparation to the Land of The Rising Sun, Japan Part 1: cheap airfare

Hi guys!! It has been such a long time to write again in this blog (sorry). I know, I’ve been neglecting it for God knows how long. I’ll promise, I’ll be sharing some more travel tips. So, Here it is.. (Enjoy)

Japan has always been in my travel list. I know Japan since I was like 5 years old. Back then, I always woke at 6 am to watch the Japanese anime: Doraemon, Sailor Moon, Chibi Maruko Chan, Kobo Chan, Pokemon and many more to be listed down. It just didn’t stop there, I still watch it until now with less frequent i guess. So, to me, Japan never dies.

In 2015, I heard my friends got a cheap return ticket to Tokyo by Airasia, only IDR 3 millions something ($300ish). They told me that before the good parts, you should endure the endless flying time (almost 8 hours of waiting and 7 hours of flying) but it’s Japan we were talking about, I didn’t give a damn to the long waiting time. After had made up my mind, I began my research on the tale of cheap tickets. I focused my point to Airasia and Airasia alone. My friends told me that Airasia had specific discount seasons, and i should be aware when it came out. Finding a discount wasn’t as long and hard as I thought, they did it every week!!! Week by week they had promotions like crazy, this place, that place or this place again with different prices!!



I waited like crazy for the upcoming Japan discount and finally it showed up. The deal with Airasia is even if they said the discount period is within 9 months, you still have to be smart to pick a date, it ain't like every day is as cheap as they said in promotion. So I picked my date and rough destination.
