Mary asks…

what to do during a 5 hour layover in narita airport (japan)?

i am only 15/16 and this would be my second flight in my lifetime and my first flight alone. i am headed to korea but i have a 5/6 hour layover in narita airport. do you think it is a better idea for me to stay in the airport rather than walk around in narita? i don’t know japanese and i really afraid of missing the flight to korea, but i’m not sure what i would do during the layover.

thanks

I am not sure if they allow you out of the terminal during a 5 hour layover. In order to even get out, you would have to go through customs and immigration which could take a hour within itself.. In the airport there are duty free shops, internet cafes, restaurants, etc. Around. Getting around Narita would be tricky to figure out and as someone mentioned, Tokyo is too far away. Your best bet is to stay inside the terminal and hang out. Boring I know.

Can I have free wireless internet connection at Narita Airport (Japan)?

I transit in Narita Airport (Tokyo) for 5 hours. Can I have free wireless internet access there?

It’s not free but it is cheaper than most airports. It’s only 500 yen. Http://www.narita-airport.jp/en/guide/service/list/svc_33_wire.html

Chris asks…

Did the Kansai airport in Japan have much damage from the tsunamis?

I believe the Kansai airport is the man-made island that serves as a major airport for Japan. I’ve searched on the internet and can’t find any news stories about damage to this “floating island”. I did read that air traffic is starting to flow again already for the major airports in Japan. Any news as to how this airport handled the tsunami waves?
Thanks so much Maiko! It’s amazing and interesting to hear from someone who is at Kansai airport.

admin answers:

Hello, I’m a Japanese women who works at Kansai International Airport.
Answer to your question, Kansai airport is totally safe now, working as usual. When earthquakes hit airport on last Friday, I felt circular movements several times, and it made me dizzy for a while. Security department staffs of our company did research on entire floating island after earthquakes hit. I haven’t received any information about damages caused by Tsunami yet.
As you read on some articles, it is a little bit more crowded than usual today, it seems like because foreigners who lives/ visiting Japan are attempting to leave. So delays or flight cancels can be happen sometimes.

It is illegal to POSESS a taser let alone to take one to an airport. The security services do trawl the internet to pick up clues that you leave on sites like this.

Sandra asks…

How old to travel on my own ?

Hey I’m here just to ask a little question, i want to know how old you have to be to travel from England To Philippines ?. I’m currently 17 but the time that i want to travel to Philippines i will be 18 years of age. I’m a British Citizen and own a British Passport. It would also be possible that i would be traveling through Qatar so i don’t know if there are any rules in that country ?.

Would the same rules apply if i was to Travel from Philippines to Japan or Thailand ??.

Thanks :]
Thanks Pakli ?

Just wondering where the source is on this info, I need to be 100% before buying my tickets =) thankyou :D .

admin answers:

I don’t think that there are any rules as such like in stricter countries where religion is a very big role. But in some places in Asia, you need a holiday visa, maybe you could book your tickets with the travel agents that way you could ask them any questions and how about contacting a place like the Embassy?! Even just emailing them asking for advice, as I’m sure that someone will reply. I’ve found a few links that you might find interesting for travelling abroad, they look really useful with stuff you should have (photocopies of passport, insurance). The second link you can type in the country you’re going and it gives advice!!

Richard asks…

Is it possible for a 14 year old to enter Indonesia without a parent?

Some info:
I am traveling alone from Thailand to Bali, Indonesia, and I am a national of both the USA and Japan.

admin answers:

My daughter used to travel to Indonesia from the U.S., and at that time (pre-9/11) it was very easy–so long as a family member puts you on the plane and meets you at the destination. And the airlines (especially Singapore Airlines and JAL) were very helpful. However, if you are running away, I wouldn’t recommend Indonesia. You could get in a whole lot of trouble here and have a lot of difficulty getting out of it.

John asks…

did anyone know that budda was an indian prince?

i hate how a lot of people think that budda came from china, thailand, japan or something cuz its not true. he was a prince from india who was hindu. he didnt agree with hinduism completly so he decided to go on a mission. he sent ambassadors to other countries in asia to spread the word of a new religion that wasnt so strict as hinduism. as he traveled himself, (he left kingdom) and went to asian countries (to the east) he was given the name budda.(just a word from his religion. (came frum a sanskrit word. languge of the hindus. dead lyke latin). he is fat because he wud accept everyones sorry in his belly.

THOSE OF YOU THAT CANT ACCEPT THIS FACT so indians are also asians! hate it or w.e i dk.

Well… I can add that Buddha was born in Lumbini, a place in modern-day Nepal. He was the Shakya king’s only son. He was married to Yashodhara and had a son, named Rahul.

Then, one night he left the privileged comforts of his palace, left his wife and sleeping son… And renounced the world.
He wandered through the forests of the Himalayan mountains, and came to a place called Gaya (in India). There, he attained enlightenment under a Banyan tree.

Buddhism spread through the rest of the world from India. King Ashok, sent ambassadors to many parts of the world to spread the message of peace, and Buddhist teachings; after he saw the destruction caused by the Battle of Kaling.
