Just FYI for ZIPAir

ZIPAIR Tokyo is Japan Airlines' low cost international brand. A few differences between ZIPAIR Tokyo and Japan Air:
ZIPAIR Tokyo configure their Boeing 787 in 3 x 3 x 3 seating configuration vs Japan Air's 2 x 4 x 2 seating configuration
ZIPAIR Tokyo's legroom is 31ā€³ vs Japan Air's 33ā€³ ā€“ 34ā€³
ZIPAIR does not include anything with the fare besides the seat ā€“ everything is extra from carry-on, seat assignment and checked luggage. This will range from anywhere between $45 and $130 each way depending the options you pick.

But price is still better than other airlines even if you add on bags/seat assignment etc. But legroom could be an issue for some.
This isn't an airport. No need to announce your plans.

Quote from serra :
Really??? If you knew what Japan's government's requirements were then you'd know that "independent" travelers mean.

Independent traveler as opposed to group tour with a tour operator.

Are you for real? did you really get offended AT THAT???

That is OK Serra, I'm guessing that person have not read the official statement from Japan, ignorance is not bliss in this situation.

Going back on topic, i will be in Japan the day they open Oct 11 and i will report back and let you guys know how it is.

I was there from Jan to April this year in Tokyo/Yokohama. The flights just end before the Sakura season which starts in late March.

Quote from Dyscalculic :
Exactly my point. No, I do not know Japan requirements, didn't read their statement, nor do I know for a lot of countries. Just as many others wouldn't have. I'm glad you explained, but I think it would have been helpful explaining in the post. Until now, I had no clue. Thanks for the explainer.

If you have no clue, it's pretty brain dead to yell "Do better mods!".

It's not their job to spoon feed you. They generally go above and beyond in providing additional details on deals.

Maybe lift a finger for yourself for once and do a Google search. Then you can contribute what you find here instead of whining like a helpless, entitled baby.

You can also use Google Flights which I find much easier to find the best deals:

Quote from seahawks55 :
any idea when they will remove covid vax requirements? by now we know they dont stop it, so hopefully someone will know when Japans border will fully open without the hoops to jump through

Japan? Virtually Never. Shots (3 min, prolly more soon) & mask everywhere indoor, 99% of people wearing masks even outdoors, social distancing etc. I'm skipping the reg family trip in Dec because it's not going to be as much fun there in light of this. But hey, Japanese are nice people, polite enough not to weld you into an apt & quarantine you on sordid rations like the miserable CCP. Nevertheless it's going to be a trip back to 2020 of sorts.
