Intra-city traveling in

low-cost airlines also operate across the country at
discount rates. The competition from these cheap airlines has drastically lowered domestic and international airfares in
Japan . In addition there is the unique alternative of
Japan Air Passes , which allow tourists to use any domestic flight at a fixed low cost. There are also
Tour Packages , which comprise of cheaper airfare and accommodation. Travel websites and guides furnish valuable information on the best time to visit
Japan as well as the peak seasons, which should be avoided.
