Illuminations and light ups
Another brilliant creation of products by JTB to attract more travellers visiting places with well-known events celebrating Christmas, Year end and New Year with illuminations and light ups. Should you already be thinking of visit Sapporo, Hakodate, Otaru, Okinawa, Nagasaki, Kobe or just a nearby trip to Yokohama, do grab a copy of the "Illuminations theme special" to compare the offers. When you book your tickets under this plan you are likely to be given rooms with a good view of the city illuminations which you don't as oppose to taking a regular plan. Other than that there isn't much to add, with your usual dining options perhaps with just a little bit of extra touch to add to the festive mood.

Snowfest ticket, get now or never!
Everyone is eyeing on Skymark Airlines round trip plan to Sapporo leaving around the 2nd week of February to participate in the Sapporo Snow Festival. Unlike other tour operators, the Skymark plan offer will only be released exactly 2 months before its departure date. If you wish to leave on Feb9 you ought to put in a reservation by Dec9 in order to secure a seat on the flight that your prefer. As usual for the best fare is to depart a day before the start of the event. Take a look at the price below as a guide (price varies from vendor to vendor). Those who happen to read this posting in January, I am sorry to tell you that you have missed the boat. I shall find you some alternatives later in my posting. And wish you luck searching for a hotel in Sapporo.
There will naturally be additional flight surcharge for returning on certain popular timings however should you consider taking the last flight back to Tokyo, you should be able to avoid that by paying what have been quoted above. See you there at the SnowFest..
