United Airlines has dropped the price of their flights from Winnipeg to Tokyo and Osaka, Japan down to between $640 and $660 CAD roundtrip including taxes!
From Osaka, it's a 26 minute train ride ($17) to the beautiful city of Kyoto if you use the special rapid trains on the JR Kyoto Line.
Update 11/28 @ 6 PM CST - Cheap flights from Winnipeg to Tokyo and Osaka are back. Dates in January, February, early March 2020. Start with the Google Flights links below.
You can also look at flying into Tokyo or Osaka, but home from a different airport in Japan.
For example, Winnipeg to Tokyo, and then Sapporo (CTS) to Winnipeg. The Sapporo Snow Festival is from Jan 30 to Feb 11.
Sapporo (CTS) or Asahikawa (AKJ) are the airports you want to focus on if you're interesting in skiing / snowboarding the legendary powder of Hokkaido.
Here is a map of all the major airports in Japan, and what's around them.
Availability for travel
January, February, late March (very limited), late April (very limited), September 2020
There are also some in the second half of August 2020 for $65-$85 more.
NOTE: April 29 to May 5 is Japan's 'Golden Week' when everyone in Japan goes on holidays, meaning everything is very busy, booked, etc.
The best time to view cherry blossoms depends on the location in Japan, and varies each year. As a general rule, in many areas it is from late March to early April.
How to find and book this deal
1. Try the following Google Flights search:
Google Flights: Winnipeg to Tokyo, Japan
Google Flights: Winnipeg to Osaka, Japan
Google Flights: Winnipeg to Tokyo, and then Sapporo to Winnipeg
- click on the departure date box to open up the calendar view and browse for cheap date combinations
- look for the dates that are between $640 and $660 CAD roundtrip.
TIP #1: Look for the flights where the overseas legs are operated by ANA instead of United, whenever possible.
TIP #2: Tokyo's Haneda (HND) airport is the one that's close to downtown Tokyo. Narita (NRT) airport is an hour's train ride away.
- NOTE: These don't work when you click through from Google Flights to Expedia (the price jumps). I've had luck with clicking through to other booking sites. You may also want to try searching for the same destination and dates on Flighthub or Kayak
- If you try the same destination and dates on Skyscanner you can book them for $464 CAD roundtrip.
