After receiving your tickets, everyone needs to download the Universal app to register for a QR code to enter the gate. My kids absolutely loved it, and although the queue was long, it's still an unforgettable experience for me. Remember to try the butterbeer, everyone!
There's a store in Hokkaido located in the international arrivals area for convenient pick-up and drop-off. Signal strength and speed are good in urban areas, but relatively poor in suburban areas.
Having traveled to Japan many times, usually by train and subway, this time with 16 family members, we decided to inquire about chartering a car due to concerns about the elderly's walking ability. During the price inquiry process, options ranged from 30,000 yen to 70,000-80,000 yen. When we inquired about KKDay's Daiin Co., Ltd. charter service, we noticed several advantages and ultimately decided to choose them: 1. Fair pricing: While not the cheapest, it wasn't the most expensive either, offering reasonable prices for different itineraries. 2. Excellent communication: The staff were very patient in answering all questions during the inquiry process, and they paid special attention to and handled any requests. 3. Flexible itinerary: The staff would immediately confirm, adjust, and notify the driver of any changes to the itinerary or time. 4. Reputable company: The company has Japanese business registration, a business license, and a green license plate, complying with all Japanese regulations. After arriving in Japan and experiencing their service, everyone in our group was full of praise. First of all, the driver was very punctual, always arriving early and notifying us immediately upon arrival. Whether it's airport pick-up and drop-off or a private car hire, they never make us wait or take detours. They even found the closest intersection to our guesthouse for us to drop us off. Furthermore, our driver, Mr. Ohno, was incredibly kind and considerate, always offering suggestions. He helped us with our luggage and arrived at the designated spot early to wait for us so that tired passengers could get in and rest. This trip using KKDay's private car service was a truly wonderful experience, and I'll definitely use KKDay-Ohno Co., Ltd.'s services again next year! 👍
I used this during my trip to Bangkok. Despite the low price, the connection was good and it was very convenient. The fact that everything could be handled through my smartphone thanks to the eSIM was also a big plus.
Customer service responded promptly to any issues.
While reception was poor in mountainous areas, connection speeds in urban areas were perfectly fine.

It works fairly smoothly overall. The main purpose of this trip was to climb Mount Fuji, where the signal was occasionally weaker, but overall it's very smooth to use.
I spent a day each at DisneySea (25th Anniversary) and Disneyland, which coincided with the Japanese Obon Festival. Security was quick; I just had to take a sip of my water bottle, scan my ticket, and I was allowed through. The most important advice is to plan your route in advance and arrive at the park early to save time by paying extra to grab or buy DPA (Disney Park Accessories). Keep a childlike heart and queue for every ride and show. Bring enough cash or credit cards to make the most of your time.
This was my first time buying a travel eSIM. I encountered a problem on my first day in Japan, but the Line technicians resolved it immediately. Since I only bought a 1GB daily plan, the reception was decent in eastern Hokkaido for the first few days, except for some mountainous areas and mountain roads. Back in Tokyo, the reception quality was excellent (great value for money! Highly recommended! 👍)
Although there's no signal in rural areas, it provides good and stable speeds in urban areas. The only downside is that the location to pick up the Wi-Fi device is at the domestic terminal in New Chitose Airport. If you have immediate travel plans after landing on an international flight, it can feel a bit rushed.
