✈️ Booking Tip

I’ve personally booked through Skyscanner for flying to Japan and a handful of other international trips — and they’ve consistently delivered. Their prices are competitive, they often have deals I can’t find elsewhere, and their customer service has been genuinely helpful any time I’ve needed to make changes or ask questions. If you're planning a trip and want things to go smoothly from the start, they’re a solid place to begin your search.
