Yeah done it plenty of times for Japan. Manage to find flights couple days out etc

You still need personal income proof as well which can be difficult if you're small business level sole trader. Also using AMEX here as they seem easier to sign up for small business

Same here

No but I do envy those who can turn their brains off like that. I have a friend who just watches the map lol

Morning happy hour beer? Sign me up! Might have to send a fax to management of Dotour to add it to one of their morning sets

Got 60/10k on two accounts.. and just realised you can buy booze/whisky at coles online so one of those will be doing that and the other my normal groceries.. nice!

Haha I had this exact same thought.. shame the only other ABN I have is a personal one, doh!

Hmm intriguing.. so aside from using the auto gates what would be additional advantages to having this card?

That little snipped about fuel is handy. One thing I don't think they mentioned is often the self service servos have a separate little machine to accept the payment. Put the fuel in, print a barcode thing, take it to next machine, pay. Definitely confused me the first time I came across it

Looking forward to it. I used to stay in Shinagawa, not a lot around as it's more a business area but well serviced to get to other parts of the city and to/from airport of course.

The Japanese set menu is the way to go for this flight

Will send you a DM

This is literally true for places like Fukuoka.. I'm definitely looking into it so have an interest in this thread (although different area etc)

Sake usually isn't firey (unless you get onecup lol) nah it's typically pretty smooth. That food looks epic

Oh that tour is cool, I'll add it to my to-do list (which seems never ending)

Don't see an issue. Probably they are not used to people changing the strict plan. English signs everywhere especially for airport and tourist related things, you'll be fine I'm sure!

Amazing scenery, the water is so clear

Can't speak for the tofu bar but don't sleep on those Chicken "bars". They're pretty good actually haha
