Creator's Key Takeaways

I am flying to Tokyo today for $250. How is this possible? How can you fly across the entire Pacific Ocean for $250 bucks?

We spent 10 days in Japan on a budget-minded trip, starting with an insanely cheap $250 flight on an airline I've never heard of before.

It's bringing smiles to my face. The music, this view right here, you have to experience it.

This was by far, yeah, the best. I think just the best overall meal of the trip because, you know, it's about the food, but it's also about the location.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Pay the extra $10 for a reserved seat on the bullet train to avoid standing in the crowded open seating area.
โœ“If you're traveling on trains in Japan, follow the colored lines on the floor to navigate stations easily.
โœ“Consider getting a VIP experience at the pig cafe for a shorter, more focused visit.

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

We spent 10 days in Japan on a budget-minded trip, starting with an insanely cheap $250 flight on an airline I've never heard of before. Turns out the flight was just as comfortable as any regular carrier like American, United, of Alaska. If you're seeing my page for the first time, I spent the last 4 years sharing my experience of living and working on a cruise ship. Nowadays I'm still on ships, but just living on them half of each month while my girlfriend Jaidyn performs on Royal Caribbean's Star of the Seas. Anyway, thanks for watching! Back to regular cruise ship stuff in the next video. ๐Ÿ›ณ๏ธ Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 02:54 Pig Cafe 04:06 Finding A Gym 05:44 DisneySea 09:18 Airbnb Tour 1 12:10 Shinkansen High Speed Train 13:22 Airbnb Tour 2 14:39 Ramen in Kyoto 16:58 Bamboo Forest 20:19 Shinkansen Station 21:49 Airbnb Tour 3 22:17 Sushiro Conveyor Belt Sushi 24:01 Enoshima 25:52 Cliffside Restaurant 27:07 Teamlab Planets 28:44 Final Costs
