Nonrev to Japan

Are we only flying to Tokyo these days? Not Osaka nor Nagoya?

Down from 16 at the NWA merge, not including 5th freedom markets and dedicated cargo.

Well done.

Japans economy has been in the doldrums since Covid because they have so much public debt already they were reluctant to follow the US lead in just blowing out the deficit following the pandemic and flooding the economy with cash.

Japan lack of travelers alone has cost HAL $$$Millions lately.

ZED from HND to Osaka is easy and cheap. I haven't tried Nagoya, but I imagine it's similar.

My son just finished a three week trip to Japan. He went ZED to either ITM or KIX, then train back to Tokyo with a stop at Mt Fuji. He did not hack my TravelNet login, I knowingly listed him for the adventure. The train was fun, but more expensive than the ZED.
