Thank you, Mr. Doubokujinman ！ ！ I'm beginning to understand. Perhaps the advantage of using a travel agency is that you can leave it to them to find the right airlines for you. But if you already have an airline in mind （ then you can buy directly from the airline ） with miles or something ？

So I guess I should recognize Expedia and Orbitz as online travel agencies with no stores ？ Then ？ I was looking up travel agencies and found that the number of stores has decreased ？ and there are only 2 or 3 stores in LA ？ ？ I was not expecting that. I guess it means they can do the same thing online now.

＞ I was researching travel agencies and found that they have reduced the number of stores

I see, is that the situation without my knowledge?
I miss the
ads in Japanese newspapers and magazines that say "round trip to Japan $299 ！" by travel agencies.

Even a geezer like me has been buying tickets online for about 10 years now
I wonder if this is a big trend for everyone.
About 4 years ago, maybe, I bought a combination airline ticket and hotel on Expedia
when I went to Vancouver, Canada.
If you buy directly from the airline, many of the hotels are well-known and expensive, but
Expedia lists small and medium sized hotels, which is convenient for me
. The airline was Air Canada's
Rouge, an LCC subsidiary.

The number of Japanese private accommodations introduced on Airbnb seems to be decreasing.

The Japanese government's Homestay Law went into effect on June 15, and Airbnb has said that it will remove from its listings those that do not meet the regulations, but the news said that the number will be reduced by half. But the number of potential sites that used to be rotten are now actually only a few. 10% is as good as it gets.

The Tama area of Tokyo where we stayed also shows the same page from the previous e-mail, but there are no "Available" ・ or "Filled" on the calendar when we enter the dates we want to stay, and the page is blank until December. Maybe this place was taken off the referral list too.

So it is currently impossible to find a private accommodation on Airbnb. All that appear on the list are hostels and capsule hotels with shared rooms that have been in compliance with the Ryokan Law, etc. for some time.

Soapy Man, I remember when I used to be able to get to Los Angeles from Narita with only 30,000 yen. It was great for poor students, and I was able to go to the U.S. a lot thanks to that.

Is it safe to stay in a private house ？ I would like to use it, but I am afraid. I think hotels are the same, but I'm afraid of cameras being set up. I feel safer in a hotel, so I end up staying in a hotel.
