Firstly, I apologise if this has been asked before. I did search, but couldn't find what I was thinking of.
My husband and I are looking to travel from SYD-NRT then up to Sapporo for the snow festival. We are looking at roughly 5 days in Japan and then on a separate ticket fly NRT-DXB-FCO/LHR-DXB-NRT, have roughly 2 days in Tokyo and then finish the SYD-NRT-SYD trip. We intend to be in Europe for approximately 8 weeks, before heading back to Japan.
My question is (and I apologise if it sounds as if I'm dumb): 1) Can the SYD-NRT-SYD tickets be return tickets or should they be bought separately (separate PNRs), so SYD-NRT - do the Europe trip on separate tickets (EK), then a new ticket (PNR) for the NRT-SYD portion.
I also believe that we might need to get Multiple Entry Short Term Visas for Japan, I'm waiting to hear back from the Japanese Consulate for confirmation on this.
I hope this made sense, I'm just trying to work out the logistics of it all before booking. It's more the Japanese visa that's catching me out in my understanding.
Has anyone done something similar?
Thanks in advance for reading and answering .
