I hv checked it costs 70000 yen for round trip ticket, from Hong Kong to Fukuoka Airport! hows yours?

really nice to meet someone who will go on exchange in the coming semester! =)
17-20K in USD isn't unreasonable for a year. I think I said earlier, but my school suggested 30K for Tokyo.

I bought my one-way ticket from Dulles (Washington, D.C.) to Narita Airport for about 90,000 yen (970 USD) on a 14.5 hour plane ride. I find it kind of weird you're in Hong Kong yet it's only 200 dollars less. Maybe I don't know enough about flights.


I'm not a cynic; I just like to play Devil's Advocate once in a while.
