ANA has increased the frequency of Perth to Tokyo (Narita) flights to daily (instead of 3x per week) from December onwards
Some excellent prices over Christmas and New Years
Examples to Tokyo:
6/12 to 30/12 = ~$1600
23/12 to 7/12 = ~$1650
23/12 to 14/12 = ~$1650
17/12 to 14/12 = ~$1650
Domestic flights are available for free or cheap, or even make the cost cheaper - do a multi-city booking to avoid starting and ending in Tokyo
e.g.
PER —> CTS 23/12
KIX —> PER 14/01
~$1500
One of the rare occasions where a direct long haul flight is cheaper than one-stoppers and ridiculous 50+ hour multi-stop flights (with checked luggage)
There was decent reward availability through Virgin last week, including business class.
