Tokyo Auto Salon 2007

[Amaru]

then !!!!! flying up to Sapporo to do a bit of skiiing.

Looking foward to it.

I hate you

West, I will be there in January as well for Autosalon and it seems there will be a number of others there also - There is no shortage of things to get up to while you are there so dont worry

PM ya'! Awaiting for reply, should i start booking my tickets now as i assume price would be different now than peak season?

Should i consult a travel agent to see if they can put together a package or just do everything by myself? I'm thinking of stoping by SHANGHAI for a few days as well.

ALso snowboard over there sounded MAD, i heard they've got the longest run in the world, my knees are shaking already .

Well West I went to flight centre, I took some prices in with me and realise they charge around 8% commision on everything which includes easy to get stuff such as JR passes, but then again I prefer an agent to do it that way if something goes wrong I have them to fall back on (ie demand a refund).

They organised car hire in hokkaido, accomodation in sapporo and return flights etc fairly easily, I hear that it gets pretty busy and accomadation can be streched out after november with alot of people heading up there

ok guys I am a noob at this I want to come over for about 7 - 10 days but I would be comming over by myself and I only have about 5k to spend on the trip is it possible or not? I want to go to TAS and explore a bit but really need to make sure I can do the trip with only 5K (this has to include airfares as well.
