Travel: Japan - Tokyo & Disneyland

[DJKA]

Hi floppy,


Sorry how you get it? I go to JAL Website, then go to Domestic flight column. I choose from Tokyo Narita to Sapporo then search. It show me no flight route or date. Is it too early to book for Dec?

Planning to be in Tokyo in dec and plan to visit disney sea. Hilton Tokyo bay seems a much talked abt hotel. Is it convenient to other attractions in Tokyo besides DisneySea? We plan to visit other attractions like Asakusa, megaweb and tsukiji market etc. Is there a recommended area in Tokyo to stay which is convenient for moving around?

JAL website -> select Multi-city in the ticket purchase section. You would need your bookings to be issued on 1 ticket.

Once in the multi-city booking page, just use the following parameters with the dates of your choosing. Take note of the stopover point in TYO on your return leg.

Dec is peak period for travel. If you don't mind the risk of not having tickets, you can try booking later. As it's the peak period for travel, price drop is unlikely barring any foreseen circumstances.

Only Disney Sea? Usually we spent 2 to 3 days at both parks. You can also look at Sheraton Tokyo Bay. Rooms are usually bigger at these hotels than at the city. From these hotels you have to take the Disney monorail to Maihama station first before taking JR lines to other places. Quite ok. If stay in the city, try to find one hotel near to stations on the Yamanote Line.

Yup only DisneySea as 2 of our 3 kids are already 17 and 14 and we have been to Orlando twice so just thought we'll do DisneySea since it is different from the usual Disneyland.

Thanks for the recommendation on Sheraton. Will check it out. Have been doing my research and is now actually thinking of staying at Metropolitan Marunouchi at Tokyo Station for the convenience. Train to disney from there is only 15 mins and it seems convenient to lots of places. Our bullet train from Nagoya to Tokyo will stop there. Narita express is also from there. And the Pokemon store which my boys want to visits is also nearby! (yes, they are still Pokemon crazy at 17 and 14 becos of the DS game :siao: )

Yes, if just tokyo and disneyland. Then F&E is ok.
Decide on the dates of departure and return so as to book airfare.
The read up more about disneyland including how to get there.
It is better to choose a hotel that is near to the rail station for convenience.
