Three-Year Multiple Entry Visa

Unlike the US visa, it could not be scheduled by oneself and could only be processed through designated travel agencies.

After tax, more than 250,000 yuan
Passport and tax documents are sent through Taobao

The whole process is entirely dependent on mailing, and I thought the documents would be lost.
I didn’t expect it to be successfully processed in just two weeks.

Business Class

The Business Class and First Class of most Asian airlines are the same.

For example, on this Boeing 787 aircraft, there are only four seats in a row 💺
Window seats on both sides, no neighbors, and seats for couples in the middle.
The area occupied by one Business Class seat is equivalent to six Economy Class seats.

Because All Nippon Airways had a promotion, the ticket price was only double, so it was quite cost-effective.

Hot towels are provided upon boarding, followed by champagne 🍾️ and various beverages.
Lunch can be reserved in advance for either Japanese or Western cuisine.
The cutlery is replaced with heavy porcelain plates and metal knives and forks 🍴

The best part is that the seats can be reclined flat to 180 degrees with a small button.
The restroom 🚾 is no longer crowded with people coming and going.
Even the children were polite and there was no crying throughout the journey.

The sound of the engine has also become much quieter, and the default headphones 🎧 are Bose QC 25.

Because it only takes 3 hours to fly directly from the capital to Tokyo.

The basic process is
Board the plane, have a meal and drink some beverages
Look at your name
Lie down and take a nap
And you’ve arrived

The overall experience is excellent.

However, the area behind the Business Class is empty
I was worried that when I go to Japan next time
All Nippon Airways might have gone out of business

Haneda Airport

Observation Deck

There is a huge observation deck on the rooftop of Haneda Airport.
You can watch the takeoff and landing of planes and experience engine roars more realistic than IMAX.

Hotel Gracery Shinjuku

I stayed near Shinjuku Station for convenience
I didn’t expect it to be the Godzilla Hotel
There is a giant Godzilla head on top
Usually, I’m used to seeing knockoff versions in China,
Encountering the official one feels strange.

Kabukicho is next to it
There is a great Ichiran Ramen place
Even at 11 PM, there was a long line for late-night snacks.
