Those of you who have crossed the ocean to come here to Los Angeles and Japan
are always concerned about something related to your travel between Los Angeles and Japan.

If you have anything to say or questions, please feel free to write.
I'll try to write "something" as well.

Example :
What means do you use to call when you return to Japan?

Which seat on the plane do you prefer, Aisle or Window, front, back,

Which airline do you think has the best food?

Which mode of transportation do you use to get to the local area?

and so on and so on

Oops...

Does anyone have the answer to my question in #4237 ?

I must have taken the same flight last year, but either I didn't need it or

I am too old to remember, or I have completely forgotten.

> Don't ask here, call them yourself and find out.

Where do you call ?

JAL would be the same, but when I call ANA, they are on hold all day.

I tried to call ANA last year or so to ask about another matter, but no matter how many times I tried to call, they were "busy".

I had no choice but to drive to LAX, and I talked to the ANA counter and got my business settled, but

I said to the agent inside the counter, "ANA phone is busy ( ) all hours of the day
"
"I'm sorry, sir. <1566> "Sorry, sir, it is," he replied. You should try calling Ototto.

I have no income and no bank account in Japan, but I would like to open one. I have a wedding and other things to celebrate that I have yet to give, so I will need a lot of cash all at once, but what is the least expensive way to convert American dollars into Japanese yen ?
I heard that you can withdraw cash from ATMs at convenience stores, but I imagine that such a thing would cost me money. I think they are taking money from me ?. There are no fees, but the exchange rate seems to be underhanded like the bank's price 😂
I have $ 5000 USD cash on hand to enter the country, $ I would like to put about 25K in some way into an account that I will set up in Japan. The latest I am within $ 5000 but with the yen so weak right now, it would be better to convert ? $ 25K.

Okano,

> What is the least expensive way to convert US dollars to Japanese yen ?

I am not sure there is anyone living on this forum who can give a correct answer to such a serious question. I think.

Someone called "Weekend Overseas Nomad 'Daisuke'" on YouTube deals with such issues, so you might want to scour his past videos.


Whenever I have less Yen on hand during my trip to Japan, I stop by the nearby post office and withdraw cash Yen from the ATM using my Debit Card from a bank here. But the amount is only a few tens of thousands of yen.

Now $200 is about 30,000 yen.

I think the maximum amount of money that can be exchanged for cash in a day at my bank is $500.

If you can make an account in Japan, I recommend WISE.
I think it is convenient to operate with smart phone and low commission.
