Hi!
Ok meh sambung cerita pasal Tokyo.
Kita cerita pasal flight ticket dulu.
First time dulu, ticket kapal terbang saya berharga at only RM 719. And then the second trip cost me at RM 918. While the third trip was slightly cheaper, RM 897.
Yes. Itu harga for return tickets. Plus dengan tax, insurance, baggage, seat and on flight meal.
Why so cheap?
Ok meh I tell you the trick.
1. Air Asia akan keluar flight schedule for every 8 months. So if nak pergi during Autumn, bulan October, sila check for flight details as early as March.
2. Clear cache dulu before browse for flight tix.
3. Salah satu advantage Jepun ni ialah lately ni banyak earthquake. So I advise you, everytime you heard yang Japan ade earthquake, cepat2 check for flight tix. Sebab during this time, they will most probably lower the price sebab takut orang tamau pergi Jepun. LOL! No. Serious. Saya tak main2. Kalau tak caya, you try la.
4. Jangan booking last minute. Last minute tu yang mahal. Sebab you have no other choice.
5. Book as early as you can. Paling lewat I bought my tix, 5 months ahead.
6. Also, trick ini mostly work out untuk yang nak travel during Summer, Autumn & Winter sahaja. During Spring, I'm sorry. Tak boleh tolong. Sebab during this season, semua nak balik Jepun. Sebab nak tengok bunga Sakura. So peluang untuk dapat ticket murah adalah sangat tipis.
7. Plan hari pergi dan balik during weekdays. Hari Selasa paling senang nak dapat seat murah.
Ok there you have it.
Tips tips ni saya tak berani jamin keberkesanannya. But this is what I've been doing since 3 years ago. Sebab tu belum pernah lagi ticket flight saya cecah seribu ringgit. So why not awak cuba try buat apa yang saya buat before. If it does work out for you, then, you're welcome!
LOL
Itu cerita flight ticket. Now kita cerita pasal accommodation pulak. Mana nak duduk dekat Jepun nanti? Where to survey? Which yang comfortable dan murah?
Every year saya browse hotel dekat Hostelworld. This website for me, sangat convenient. Sebab I love dia punya filter button. Lepas tu yang tulis review are mostly genuine people. I once terbaca ada owner hotel dengan customer bergadoh dekat review sebab the customer tak faham rules & ethics. Gila!
Anyway..browse dekat website ini bukan bermakna anda juga harus book hotel dari sini. Oh no no no. Tidak. Salah tanggapan itu. Website ini just nak membantu cari hotel or hostel yang ok. Dari pengalaman saya, review from this hotel has helped me alot.
Another website yang could help you with finding a suitable hotel/hostel is Trip Advisor. Cuma Trip Advisor ni lack satu benda je. Harga. Sebab tu saya prefer Hostelworld. Semua pun ada.
By the way, nak booking hotel pun ada tips juga, tahu? Let me list down it for you.
1. Surf the net and cari hotel yang paling sesuai sampai puas hati. Jangan lupa dengan all the small details, macam ada free breakfast? wifi? attached bathroom? dekat dengan public transport?
2. I used Hostelworld untuk cari hotel. And then search for the hotel's website. Tengok and view the hotel from the Owner's point of view and compare dengan third party point of view and customers. Ini penting untuk get to know the place yang bakal awak duduk di perantauan ok?
3. Stalk selagi boleh hotel tersebut. Google 'em. Baca review. Buat comparison.
4. Hotel with no pictures are always suspicious. So does hotel yang uses the same pictures since 10 years ago. Or the one yang latest review nya was 3 to 2 years ago. Next hotel pls!
5. Do you know all the third party website macam Agoda ke, Booking.com ke, even Hostelworld sebenarnya does not offer cheaper price? I dunno about the hotel here in Malaysia lah. But if you wanna cheaper price for hotels in Japan, please book straight away with the hotel. Jangan guna third party. Sebab the management can offer you much more discount. Lagi2 if staying for more than a week.
6. Remember masa booking tu to tell the hotel your ETA. And also, apa awak nak. Dekat Japan, their customer service are the most efficient yang saya pernah nampak. They will most probably tunai kan apa je yang awak mintak. Cuma jangan over the river sangat ok?
7. In Japan, hotel murah adalah hotel yang tiada attached bathroom. Bathroom dan toilet are mostly sharing basis. Tapi bukan lah yang macam style onsen ok. Itu dalam tv. In real life ada je private shower room.
8. Saya recommend duduk dekat Aizuya Inn atau Hotel New Azuma. Okbye.
LOL
Dah 3 kali pergi Jepun. First time duduk dekat Aizuya Inn. Second time dekat Hotel New Azuma. I love both places. Cuma ohmaigod sikit bila nak kena panjat tangga sebab there are no lift.
Aizuya Inn are more international. Sebab mostly yang stay situ tourist and foreigners. So the place pun nampak sangat modern. Also senang nak communicate dengan jiran sebelah bilik or katil sebab semua pandai cakap English.
Dekat sini ada single room, double room, triple room and also room for four. Room for four ni is the only room yang you boleh sewa katil je. Macam style dorm room lah. Toilets are on the first floor sampai the third floor. But cuma yang dekat first floor je yang ada bidet. Yang lain you wipe guna tissue ok? Hahaha! Shower room only ada dekat first floor. All rooms are with tv accept yang room for four. Nak tengok tv kena turun lepak dekat lounge area.
Aizuya Inn also ada kitchen free for you to use. Ada juga free flow drinks dekat lounge area. But washing machine, dryer and also shower kene bayar. Yup. Nak mandi kene masuk ¥100 untuk on kan shower. LOL! Also, kebersihan dekat this place is a little bit tak best. Sebab yang tinggal sini mostly foreigners kan, so cara diorang semua lain2. This is the one thing yang turn off pasal staying here. But overall, saya suka tempat ni.
Hotel New Azuma pulak rarely ada foreigners. Mostly yang stay situ are Japanese yang datang Tokyo untuk kerja out station. So you don't speak English so much. Cuma cakap bila ada Ojiisan tiba2 excited nak belajar bercakap in English with you and also Obaachan yang kerja dekat reception. She is a very nice lady. Would help you in anyway she can.
In here, hotel room semua jenis single room. Means per person per room. Dalam bilik ada futon, aircond, heater and TV. So you got the room all by yourself. At every floor ada toilet. No bidet here tho'. Shower room and bathroom ade on the first floor.
What's best about this hotel is that it's clean. Kitchen clean, toilet clean, washroom, semua lah! For me, staying here sangat comfortable. I feel mostly like home here.
Oh how I miss this place.
Insyallah if berpeluang pergi lagi, I wanna go back. Nak jumpa Obaachan yang baik hati. Nak duduk lepak dekat lounge dengan random Ojiichan and teach them English. LOL!
Aaaaahh...rindunyaaaaa!
Ok. Habis. Next time sambung lagi.
