Travel notes

  1. 01

    Late January to mid-February is consistently the cheapest window: cold, crisp, and empty of tour groups.

  2. 02

    Cherry blossom (late March–early April) and Golden Week (early May) push fares up 60–100% versus February.

  3. 03

    Haneda (HND) lands you 30 minutes from Shinjuku; Narita (NRT) is cheaper but 60–90 minutes out.

  4. 04

    The JR Pass is no longer a bargain for a Tokyo-only trip. Buy a Suica on your phone instead.
