  1. Headed there in Sept! We had booked ANA business w/points but found that the schedule didn't work for us so we canceled and rebooked with United Polaris for our Outbound. While I'm seeing that there may be some differences in the hard product and probably soft products / food, we'll def get lots of Japanese food while there. Our return is booked on JAL and again, I'm fine with that. Looking forward with the next few posts so we can get some tips and recommendations!

  2. Do you happen to know how it compares to JAL business class? I wanted to try ANA J but I couldn't find availability so I'm doing JAL J instead!

  3. Do Yamato Transport also pick up luggages from hotels to Narita airport? Great video as always!

  4. So awesome! Can't wait to to do this, this summer!! SFO – NRT, but I'm sure it'll be fine. Hubby and one kid on the SFO – HND flight… That outdoor patio is bonkers!! Thank you for sharing!!

  5. The red eye flight to HND has a much better business class product: The Room…….and, the same cost

  6. I just came to tokyo myself. Flew in ANA business class in the room from Chicago to Haneda. Great seats and service. I believe with your flight you could have used the newer United Polaris Lounge which is much better than the Star Alliance lounge but it is in another terminal… not sure if it’s connected to Bradley international terminal. BTW O’hare is a terrible airport and no true international terminal. Terminal 5 is a joke

  7. Thanks for being my inspiration! Scored biz reward tickets outbound from SEA to Tokyo via EVA Air and back home via ANA for my wife and I this November. Couldn't have done it without your Aeroplan vid- I think I found my new favorite Chase transfer partner!

    Great video as always! Looking forward to more Japan themed ones… And praying Andaz Tokyo opens more award space closer to our trip!

  8. Loved this style of vlog! It’s very informative and entertaining. Also love seeing your interactions with Tiffany! My bf and I have learned so much from you and appreciate the work you do! It’s actually because of you that he was able to fly to Japan last month with points and finally live out his dream of snowboarding in Sapporo, Hokkaido. Can’t wait to see more from you!

  9. My man rocking a rolex with Tiffany’s Hermes and Rimowa. You should do a video about whats in your luggage and traveling camera gear. ❤ where you got the hoodie sweater from?

    Also you should make a video about japan in general. For example where to visit for each purposes. Like where to stay if you like to ski, or just wandering around the city, or where to see cherry blossoms, or just for instagram. If u have time of course

  10. Unfortunately it wasn't The Room! How far in advance did you book for 4 seats, or did you only do award tickets for a couple? And of course – more travel vlogs!

  11. This is so cool! We're heading to Japan in May in economy but are crossing our fingers hoping we can find more availability for ANA biz on the return trip. Also I love your video setup. What camera are you using to shoot with?

  12. how far out did you book this flight and is availabililty hard to come by on Aeroplan for ANA flights? Thanks and great videos!

  13. Hey bro, thanks for your videos I was able to book myself and hubby same 75k x2+ $150 tomorrow from IAH-HND. I had one issue. I am having trouble checking in via air Canada app 24 hrs in and have been on hold on the phone forever to check whether i should show up at ANA or check in with air Canada ticketing prior? Hope to get a response before we head to the airport. Thanks

  14. Great video. I'm curious why many youtubers are talking more about Amex gold at the same time. Your either talking about it or showing it more than the Platinum.

  15. Hi Max. Does ANA release different seats for different partner? I saw a seat same day same flight in business ANA but Aeroplan shows 1 seat left while ANA website still showing plenty. Can I call VA and get one seat on hold and check if I can book another seat with AC just to be sure?

  16. What do you do for a living? I noticed the Submariner, I dig it. I also enjoyed this video. We're looking to take an ANA flight from LAX to SGN (Ho Chi Minh) down the road. I saw 2 business class seats for 200,000 miles.

  17. Sad how you fly biz class for effectively free and then have issues booking two hotel rooms at a 5 star hotel for cash. I do not understand this fake it till i make it lifestyle where you fly first class and biz class for “free” thx to getting tons of cards and points and then when u get there and there is no awards hotels and u have to pay cash you go for the horrible 2-3 star accomodation.

    If u fly biz and 1st class u should have the money to live up to the class. 5 star hotels, taxi from airport, private tours and excursions.

  18. You're videos really inspire me, very informative and inspiring. I saw on your Instagram that you book domestic flights in Japan too, we are going to Japan this June and I would like to book a flight from HND to ITM (Osaka) but I can't figure out how. Did you book your domestic flight in Japan using JAL website? Thank you!
