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

＞ I really appreciate ANA's telephone customer service

I tried to call them to correct a spelling mistake in my wife's name when I made my reservations, including hers, online, but they were busy for several minutes for about an hour. I took the Flyaway Bus to LAX and asked for the correction at the ANA counter, which they gladly accepted and corrected it on the computer in the back. I complained to the lady who took care of it that I couldn't get through on the phone at all, and she agreed. I suppose the situation changes with the day and time, but "ANA phone lines are disconnected" seems to be the general rule.

I am looking for a prepaid sim for my 10-day temporary return trip to Japan, but I don't know which sims are compatible with the iphone 8. Please let me know if you have any recommendations that would work. Thank you in advance.

I am staying in Japan now.
I am using esim on my iphone SE, but since it was my first time using it, I had a lot of trouble with my phone
at first, but I managed it and now I can use the internet comfortably.
However, when I try to log in to various US accounts from Japan and receive a text message for security verification,
I sometimes forget to switch back to the Japanese version after switching to the US sim.
My plan was about 3GB $ 9, so I think it is cost effective.

Urashima Taro,

What is the carrier for your iphone8, AT&T or T-Mobile?

Both companies should automatically connect you to the Japanese carrier you signed up with when you arrived in Japan.

If you call these carriers before you leave here and tell them your needs, they will give you a variety of plans.

I am on T-Mobile, so when I arrived at Haneda, they automatically called my cell phone (Samson Galaxy S21 5G) and
gave me a plan in Japan.

Or do I have to switch to a Prepaid SIM Card?

Urashima Taro,

Why do you use "prepaid sim"?

If your carrier here is AT&T or T-Mobile and your purpose of use in Japan is only "call" or "internet connection", you will be automatically connected to your Japanese carrier without changing your SIM card.

My phone is Samsun Galaxy S21 5G and carrier is T-Mobile. AT&T and T-Mobile seem to take into account the use of cell phones in Japan and automatically connect without any action from us.

However, there is a limit to how many minutes you can talk and how many gigabytes of data you can carry. If you call these carriers before you leave here, they will tell you in person how much they charge for calls/data and how to use it.

Or will the SIM card be used for other purposes?
