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

LAX-NRT flight, 4000 yen for checked suitcases, each person usually checks 2 suitcases, so 8000 yen, add 16000 yen for round trip
extra charge for seat selection, if you don't pay this, your friends and family will be separated
31000 yen one way in March, checked baggage fee ＋ 31000 yen for one way, although it seems cheaper in March in-flight meal fee no monitor, so you have to bring your own tablet or something. 265> Meals charged ＋ Seats unknown （ Add these packages and it's 15,000 yen one way ）
No monitor so you have to bring your own tablet or something to watch movies
$800 round trip on Delta the same day Free checked bags Free meals snacks included ＋ seat selection
Well, it's cheaper with the cheap yen, but I'd choose Delta.

ZIPAIR]AMAZING $ 1,000 Business class from Narita to Losangels

You should at least write the title correctly....　　Losangels"....

And since it's not economy class, it's not very helpful.

Gase Taro,

I will be departing from our area, so please use dollar signs if possible.

Anyway, ZipAir has small seats and no entertainment, so you have to bring everything yourself. I heard that "full-flat seat" is equivalent to business class on other airlines, and besides, with my height, I can lie down completely just barely, and the fare is like economy class price when other airlines are expensive, so I thought I can take "full-flat seat" class. But the NRT arrival and departure is hard for me. Oh, I heard they charge for everything from blankets to whatnot, so I guess I have to pay for this too when I book?

People sometimes show Japanese yen, but it's strange because we are here in Vivinavi LA. It's not a Japanese person who doesn't live here writing from Japan ？ I don't mind.

＞ Here in the US,

I don't mind if it's in yen, but I've been here long and I'm too old for yen.

If it is in dollars, I can consult with my pocketbook directly.

Off topic, but now is the best time to travel to Japan as the yen seems to be very cheap.

I am planning to return to Japan temporarily for the first time in many years. I am looking for a ticket that allows me to change the date, and ANA seems to be a good choice, so I am considering it.
I noticed that nowadays economy seats do not include meals （ and can be booked in advance for 2,500 yen ？, but ・ ・ ・
the tickets seem cheaper than before, is it because of no meals? ？

Arya, even ANA does not provide meals?

Then you need to buy a lot of staple ・ snacks at airport convenience store before departure including ZIP AIR.

＞ ＃ Sorry, 3637, ！ I heard that the "2500 yen" means you can "change" to another menu for an additional fee. I will be flying economy late at night, so I don't have time to eat a full meal, so either way is fine. Thanks Onoda-san for the video.

I really appreciate ANA's telephone customer service. When I called the English one, the service was really bad, but when I called the Japanese one, they were very polite and easy to listen to. I've only known ANA for the last 10 years and they are the only company I've ever bothered to call in Japanese.

＃ 3640, how can there not be ？ sorry, I guess I don't understand. If anyone has flown ANA recently, please let me know. Late night flights seem to have only snacks, but when I was young I looked forward to the in-flight meals. Now I am old and sad to be in economy all my life.

＞ 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?

Ana, I'm sorry you couldn't get through to me on the phone 😔 Luckily I've always been able to get through quickly. There was a time, maybe 4-5 years ago, when I was anxious about bringing my baby home and had to call frequently because I had so many questions one after another. I was so desperate to gather information at the time that I had this weird switch in me that said, "I'll wait as long as I have to," so I would call back and say, "I'm sorry again.

By the way, what do you do with your children when you go to the restroom when traveling with a mother and daughter ？ Do you ask the flight attendants to come to you every time? ？ I'm worried about it and I'm nervous about many things.

I appreciate the service on the plane as well as the phone calls, so I try to fly home on ANA as much as possible, even though I earn miles on United. Domestic flights were also good. Anyway, the Japanese staff was kind.
