How mutch dose a plane ticket from Indiana to japan cost? -

i really gotta know. my friend s and i are planing on going to japan for a little vacation type thing. well i don t think it can be called a vacation we are planing on living their for a year or two. but we need to know. it s verry important and i can t find out anywhere elt s i have searched the web every where.

Prices can vary, a LOT, depending on time of year, how far in advance you book the ticket, and how full your particular flight is. If I had to guess, maybe $800-1400? Go to Orbitz.com or expedia.com and look there. Just type Indianapolis (or Ft. Wayne or wherever you live) in the quot;fromquot; field and Tokyo, Osaka, or whatever in the quot;toquot; field. My wife and I flew Indy-Tokyo in 2005, but we used frequent flyer miles (I think 50,000 each) to do it for free so I can t tell you how much it would have cost if we had paid for it. One last thing, it could be cheaper, or it could be more expensive, from Chicago or Cincinnati. If the difference is $50 bucks, it s not worth it since you ll spend more than that on gas driving to a faraway airport. But if the ticket is like $300 less, it may be worthwhile. Also keep in mind that Tokyo s int l airport (Narita) is about 60 miles outside of Tokyo, so factor in the cost of ground transportation into the city, as well. DON T take a taxi, it s ridiculously expensive. Either take the train (catch it from the basement of the airport, after clearing customs) or they have these orange busses out front, and each bus goes to 4 or 5 hotels. The trick is, you don t have to be staying at the hotel to take the bus. So you just pick the bus going to the hotel nearest wherever you re staying. Of course, the busses do cost money, I think it was like 2000 yen ($20) each way. You pay for the busses at a little desk inside (assuming you re at the terminal I was at - there are two terminals at Narita airport). Japan is awesome, have a good time if you end up going. Expect to pay a bit more for food and lodging than you would here, though. Learning some Japanese helps, but isn t completely necessary. I bought a set of CDs called quot;Learn in your car - Japanesequot; and listened to them for about 40 minutes per day, every other day, for 4 months before going. Again, you don t have to do that, but I was happy that I did. I think the most complicated thing I was able to say in Japanese was, in a hotel lobby talking to the manager and pointing to the overhead light, quot;I m sorry, I don t know the word for it, but *that thing* in my room is brokenquot;.

It depends where and when you are going, flight time, stops, etc. A round trip with two stops from Indianapolis to tokyo averages about $1500.00.
