LOL so true. But those extra items will take up less room and weight than extra clothes. Not to be smug, but you will note that often those people "can just throw a few things in their suitcase and be done packing" often ask people like us "Hey you don't happen to a ___insert need here___" or...

Yes. I got a portable laundry line off Temu to bring with too! When I was in Paris I has access to a Washing machine but no dryer. I figured for ANY trip it doesn't hurt to have a way to air dry wet things. https://share.temu.com/Fbj0k5iq2AA

I use these for travel. I just stick a few in a ziplock and they hardly take up any space or weight.

When you bypass the two day stops how does that work. do you just tell the luggage company what day you are arriving at the location you are sending it to? For example if I leave Osaka to head to Kinosaki (we will be wearing Yukata most of the time we are there and won't need more than a few...

I am usually an over-packer too. Going to try very hard to be more conservative this trip, having had to haul heavy suitcase up the station steps on my last trip. o_O

I plan on getting transportation for but us and our luggage on departure day. My first tip to Japan we were allowed 2 checked bag each with our our flights. So we stuffed a medium suitcase inside a larger suitcase (packing the medium bag with our clothes and filling the gap space around it in...

Can't wait to hear back on your experience

I am too tall to consider that an option.

Good question.. I will have to look into it. EDIT: Nevermind, I just saw Flossbolna's helpful response.

Thank you! I was aware of that change to the shinkansen luggage policy. (However if I had not yet been aware I would have very much needed to know) I am still torn on weather I will be using a delivery service to get our luggage from Kyoto to Tokyo or if we will take it with us on the train. I...

I have yet to figure out what the "Best Times" to be at the parks are but heard weekends are the worst. Thankfully our planned days are Tues - Thurs.

Basic Itinerary: We will drive to JFK and spend the night at a hotel nearby, then Fly out the next morning (VERY EARLY) We fly Air Canada. JFK to Vancouver then on to Osaka Kansai. (landing Oct 26th) We have 4 nights in Osaka (last trip we only had one day trip to Osaka but go so delayed we...

Yes, in Japan the pajamas in your room are like the robes elsewhere in the world. To be worn during your stay but not to be kept.

I am going to look at that one too.

Same

Staying there (Maihama First) in November. Between the phrases I know, My husbands slightly better but limited Japanese vocabulary, and Google translate, I am not too concerned about the language barrier.

Thanks for the feedback! :-) Yeah it looked like it was pretty close on the maps I was looking at.

Thanks! I am feeling pretty good about it and will probably stick to this plan. I am a little concerned about getting my Priority passes booked if I don't turn up with the Early Crowd in the morning, but if this goes poorly the first day I can adjust the rest.

Same. I love having a trip to plan almost as much as I enjoy the travel experience itself!

So excited. Hubby and I are traveling last week in October through the 1st week of November to Japan (our 2nd trip) We are spending the last 3 day in Tokyo Disney Parks! (I didn't get to do Disney last Japan trip)! We will start in Osaka and be heading to Kinosaki, then Kyoto before heading to...
