The 5-star carrier ANA and its Star Alliance partners Lufthansa and Swiss are selling tickets for flights from Dublin to multiple cities in Japan at discounted prices. The fares for a round-trip from Ireland to Tokyo start as low as €432.
Included in this fare is full onboard service as well as checked luggage. Depending on your destination, the availability is decent in 2020. But there’s also the occasional connection in 2019.
Your trip will include at least one layover, for most trips two. The first one will often be in Munich, Frankfurt or Zurich. And you will have to change planes one more time at some Japanese airport. This is if you’re not traveling to Tokyo.
Search & Book
Tickets for this deal will be sold until October 13th or until all cheap seats are gone. The offer is valid for trips commencing between November 2nd and June 30th, 2020. As already mentioned, availability depends very much ion the city you want to visit. Generally speaking, you’ll find more flights in 2020 than in 2019.
As in most cases, Google Flights (instructions) will help to find connections that fit your schedule. You can book directly on the carrier’s website or just use our Travel Dealz flight search to compare prices that OTAs offer.
The minimum stay is 6 days, with 3 months being the maximum you could spend in Japan before returning to Europe.
All tickets should be issued in booking class K. Most travelers that fly on discounted Star Alliance economy class tickets will know, that this won’t get you the highest earning rate. Around 30% is what you can expect on most frequent flyer programs.
Information & Tips for Japan
Japan offers a blend of modern cities and natural beauty, with highlights including Tokyo’s bustling urban landscape, Kyoto’s historic temples, Mount Fuji, and the hot springs of Hakone. The currency is the Japanese yen (JPY), and credit cards are widely accepted in urban areas, though cash is still common in rural regions. Japan can be pricey, especially in cities, with high costs for accommodation and dining, but budget options are available. The weather varies by region: summers are hot and humid, while winters can be cold, particularly in the north. The best time to visit is typically during spring (for cherry blossoms) or autumn (for fall foliage).
Japan’s transport infrastructure is highly efficient and easy to navigate. In cities like Tokyo and Osaka, the metro and train systems are extensive, punctual, and relatively easy to use, though they can get crowded during peak hours. Buses and taxis are also available, but less convenient for tourists. For intercity travel, Japan’s Shinkansen (bullet trains) are fast, comfortable, and reliable, though more expensive than other options. Buses and domestic flights are also available for longer distances, but trains remain the preferred choice for many travellers due to speed and convenience.
