What service do you use when getting cheap or any air fares?
Depends on whether I want a “cheap” flight or need “any” flight.
For advanced notice flights at a discount:

For short notice flights with a reasonable amount of control and flexibility at a price cheaper than anything else I could find:

waigugi,
I’ll never fly United again if I can avoid it. Last time I took them, idiots in LaGuardia tagged my bags for only as far as Chicago, and then idiots in Chicago left it in Chicago for an extra day. No explanation given. The repeated apologies and lack of an explanation me off. Got to use some very angry Japanese.

To the East Coast from Japan though… Whereabouts do you live?

United is good, but I went on a four year streak with them when they lost my bags every flight.
Sometimes booking things online from the US is cheaper than booking them online from Japan, even when using the same website. So if you can, have someone you trust back home check the website you’re looking at to see if they can book it for less. A friend gave me that advice and it works for some flights, maybe not all of them.

Special discount return tickets? Never heard of those.

$1100-1200 round trip to the east coast really isn’t that cheap.any decent travel agent should be able to get u that price with 3 weeks(+) notice.(except christmas).
HIS is convenient …
HIS is convenient and good as Japanese travel agencies go, but I’ve avoided them since it came out that they don’t offer special discount return tickets to foreigners (fearing they will use it as a one-way ticket and cash in the other half of the ticket).
I use across-travel which knows for foreigners that we want the cheapest tickets. I think any of the discount places that advertise in Metropolis are pretty good. Etour Co Jp is also pretty good – all online, cheap, but nihongo only.
Peace
