Is there a limit for the dimensions of the 30kg check in baggage? Because on zipair's website it says that the check in baggage should be 21x15 inches, which is the size of a 20kg suitcase more or less (which doesnt make sense), and I read on reddit that there's no limit for the dimensions as long as it doesn't exceed the 30kg mark, very confusing

Going back from Japan to US they are very strict when it comes to weight limit of the luggage, this happens to me last year they weighed in all the stuff I am carrying, backpack ended up paying for extra fee, they knew you going to go crazy shopping from Japan, good thing most of the items ate tax free, so paying extra is okay but you’re right the hassle of 😠 talking to the front desk is crazy but hey Zipair still cheaper.

When she recommended tossing your stuff, you were much kinder than how I would’ve responded. My smart mouth would’ve been like, you go first. 😅

7-11 has high service fee with BOA. about $35 per transaction

Hi love the information! Question, I will be using a visa credit card (not debit) with no foreign transactions fees which account type should I select?

Absolutely breathtakingly gorgeous!!

I don’t have the option to add checked luggage online so idk what to do :/ I’m over by 4kg. So annoying

Great video. THANK YOU. Quick Question. Do these ATMs got any limit on what maximum amount we can withdraw in one transaction in Japanese currency?

迫力満点、ここしばらく雨が多かったからかなぁ?

Not detailed enough. How to pay fare adj?

Thank you

Do many beautiful waterfalls in Nikko

I know charles schwab lets you withdraw international with their debit card. I can't believe they let you withdraw 100,000 yen =$600 usd thats crazy

Hi, can i clarify on this? 1. If i started my journey with a non tokyo metro line, i will need to approach the staff to pay for adjusted fair before entering the gate , then exit with the tokyo metro pass 2. If i started my journey from tokyo metro line, I will enter the gate with tokyo metro pass, then approach the staff to pay the adjusted fair before exiting. Are both statement correct?

So all in all, if you withdrew with Yen they just charge you 220 Yen for the whole transaction preocess! ❤️

So I am brining a checked bag that weighs 22kg. The maximum for zip air is 30kg. If my carry on is over 7kg, cant I just swap things into my checked bag?

You bought only 1 ..check in ..while there are 4 persons ?? ..

What is the value pack baggage means ..? Can help to explain .I also buy ... But I don't know how it works ..

Appreciate you took the time to explain this, and great tip on NOT selecting the USD option !. Have a great day

Is there seven eleven at the airport? How can I exchange it there? Thank you!

Highly recommend buying a small portable digital scale which you can take with you on your trip. This way you can weigh all your lyggage in your hotel room to make sure all suitcases do not exceed the weight limit... before going to the airport. A good small digital scale costs less than 20 bucks.

What I do (because I’m cheap): I always carry an empty plastic soft drink bottle in my backpack. If on a long flight, I bring a larger empty plastic bottle (bring a small cup in case filling the plastic water bottle is impossible at the water fountain). After going thru security, I fill the water bottle with water before boarding. You can stick the water bottle in the pocket behind the seat in front of you during the flight. If You're still thirsty after drinking all your water, then buy a bottle. I also bring a small empty thermos (keep hot water hot for 5+ hours… can buy at Don Quijote) in my backpack... and when in the terminal, buy coffee from a terminal eatery like Starbucks then fill the thermos before boarding. I also bring a nice cushiony $8 neck pillow which I bought at Ross and sit on it during the flight to keep my butt from getting sore. Because many airlines today don’t provide an entertainment monitor on the seat in front of you, for my in-flight entertainment, I just bring a soft-covered book to read and a journal notebook to write in. When flying to the mainland, we bring over a dozen sushi in a plastic container. and/or a plastic container of Spam Musubi, But I think worth buying the meals on ZipAir flight to Narita… I heard ZipAir meals are pretty good. Make sure you buy your meals when you make your reservations… to preclude not getting one on the flight cause they ran out. A plastic zip-lock bag of cookies (Oreos) will satisfr your munchy cravings during the flight.. I always bring a warm jacket to use as my blanket. Me, no need buy blanket. Also, I wear a long sleeve t-shirt on the flight... And long athletic socks to keep the feet warm. Bring a portable digital scale to measure the weight of your luggage when flying back. Precludes over-weight-limit luggage. We also bring a couple of plastic hangers and a plastic bag of clothes pins so we can wash our undies and t-shirts during showers and hang up. Hopefully clothes will dry overnite. Don't wash undies and t-shirts the night before you check out of your hotel as you want a day for all to dry. Happy travels!

omg. do they weigh it again at the gate?

Can you help me with my hypothetical? So if I order foreign currency with my Bank (BOFA) before leaving to Japan, they don't charge me anything but offers a rate of 148 yen to USD. If I went to Japan, pulled cash out of ATM, BOFA will charge me a 3% flat rate of the amount I pull out, and a $5 foreign ATM fee. My question is, what rate would the ATM give me IN Japan? Will it be the same Rate as what my bank would offer at home? Or would it be the rate of the VISA network like you mentioned when selecting the Yen button at the end?

can I use it on toei BUS?

From the Japan travel website, it says visitors can buy the 72 hour Metro Pass at the subway station Metro Pass Office. You must show them your passport.

Flying ANA. Thx for the info.

Awesome

hi

Thanks for the foolproof explanation. Specially for showing all the screens, that helps a lot.

ATM Fee 220yen 6:35 you mean it will be given back by our bank? So it's like free of charge (without any fee)?

24hrs does it mean if i used it today at 10am it expires next day at 10am ?

How does buying a ticket work in rural areas without electronic tickets? On train lines such as Choshi, do you ask for the Stop or Return?

Can someone confirm that they weigh your back pack/ purse etc normally or did they simply do it in this case to prove a point since you were trying to do the 7kg x 4 people total limit debate with them?

Thank you so much!! Best exchange tutorial out there❤

Thank you so much for the video. It was really helpful. I still have some questions. Please help me. My hotel is on Yamanote Line which is a JR. Let’s simplify this. I’ll have to go to Shinjuku station a lot so I’ll start my ride with Yamanote Line. Let’s say I want to get off at Shinjuku station. First I go to a person to pay the difference? Is there a machine to do this price adjustment in the beginning? Is there a long line to talk to a person? Would the price be cheaper to do Yamanote line with Suica than with the 72 hr pass? I saw your answer. To go to a place that start with a JR, go to an agent and she’ll calculate for me. Then insert that ticket when enter the JR. Then I use that ticket to exit?

Arigato!

Do HSBC HK card work in these 7/11 ATMs? I'm asking because HSBC HK cards have 6 digit pin...whereas Japan ATMs accept cards with 4 digit pins only.

Is there a limit on how much yen to can withdraw on one of these ATM’s?

Well, lessons learned the hard way. Airlines are getting back money from luggages after the pandemic. Always weigh your stuff

Zipair forces us to add on 30kg of checked baggage.. but allow only 1 piece which is not a common thing for me when traveling. They should have other option like 20kg or 25kg in a lower charge.. not so impressive to me
