⚠⚠ UPDATE⚠⚠ Since filming this video a day ago, the MySOS app tutorial now says use Visit Japan Web instead from 14th November 2022. 😅 Seems like procedures are changing frequently at the moment, so the best advice is to check requirements with your airline, and double-check again before you go, in case there are any further updates.
Anyway, here's the link to the MySOS app instructions: https://teachme.jp/111284/manuals/14631275

How’s everything going?~ Super, fantastic job,friend!
Good job Amy, got tickets booked yet? Flight prices still a bit sparse and what is available are quite expensive, hopefully more flights will become available soon. Need to order a calendar.
BRB, adding a few of these to our December itinerary. Thanks Amy!
Such a good video (as usual) and I'm so excited to hopefully go back in spring of 2025!
Afternoon Amy glad you're still giving me the right information about Japan & glad it's finally back opened for those who are following the rules so everything can be safe for everyone! Hope you have a great week & stay safe from London England! 👍😎👌🇬🇧
It’s good to have you back!
Watch out for the new Shinkansen luggage rules!
KAWAIIJAAAAAA!!!!!
Do you have any idea how to book the studio ghibli park tickets for foreigner's? 💗 also amazing video as always!:)
Looking at the map of Tokyo harbour it looks like there are many artificial islands but also quite interesting. I wonder what the various tour boats explore.
August 2023 here we go!!! I love hearing of new places getting added for the time me and my partner will be there!!! Instagram overload.
Great video with lots of new information. Japan booked for May next year avoiding Golden week. Can't wait 🙂
Thanks for the info
11:23 If I'm not mistaken, this new building is in the place were VR Zone was, right next to existing APA hotel 😉
Yep do the app I flew through Narita so quick and easy
Pretty well researched. About the only thing I can think of that you did not mentioned is Harry Potter amusement park that will open in 2023 at the location of Toshima-en.
I was back in August this year,… um,… definitely not looking forward to the coming hordes,… Kyoto especially was so calm and peaceful this year, like it used to be.
But, there's one problem: "North Korea's Missiles is really a horrible pain will hit Japan 🇯🇵?" Because I am very 💢 angry 😡 that never destroy the beauty of their country! It is.
Pumpkin news! ❤ love it 😊
Roponji ?
Sugoiiiii
i cant wait for NOV1 i will be arriving locally nov 2nd in Tokyo. its been a long wait but im happy to be able to get back there… mysos app is now blue/green so im fine there, will still likely need to use it. for those GUNDAM fans, there is a Gundam park in Fukuoka, there is a 24.8 meter NU gundam statue and bunch of Gundam themed places in the area. i didnt notice you mentioned it 5 months ago but that was some very recent news for me.
So sad about hyperdia that was my go to app to get around on the Shinkansen!
Definitely will be go to the Olympics tour! Thank you for putting this on my radar
Want to travel to Japan soon as. 🇯🇵
I’ve earned to go Japan. Trying to save. Had a nightmare lockdown. Lost two Japan holidays. Ache body. pneumonia. Chipped tooth and been praying hard.
Hi Amy! Great video! We are visiting in December from Australia. Do you have the Coco Curry address?
