but not on the really cheap Jetstar flights
Anyway, we've finally got our leave confirmed, so we're leaving just after Easter next year. I think we will fly into Osaka and stay there 4 nights. We'll do a day at Universal, a day trip to Kyoto and a day trip to Hiroshima (and possibly do Miyajima Island on the same day)
Then we'll take the Shinkansen to Tokyo and stay in Shinjuku for 4 nights. Do the areas of Tokyo like Akihabara, O'Daiba, Shibuya etc. My son likes all things techie, anime etc, so that there will keep him happy.
Then we'll transfer to the Sheraton Tokyo Bay for 3 nights. We'll do a day at each park, then fly home from Tokyo. (And that there will keep me happy)
I'd love to hear if anyone has any ideas, suggestions etc on what they think is not to be missed in those areas, or any hints, that would be great.
Also any idea of a hotel in Osaka which is very close to a train station as we'll be taking the train every day we're there. Looking at the Granvia, which looks great, but would love something slightly cheaper.
