Poll Time, which is nothing like Hammer Time.

[rkold]

Wheeeee, time for another poll. For those who don't know, I 1) Am not going to have long in Japan this next trip cause I want to be in Tokyo on 10/10 but need to come home 10/12 for Yom Kippur, and 2) I've also decided despite not hearing back from Volks yet, to go to Kansai first, so at the very least I can see some good friends. ^^ The problem with Kansai (KIX Airport) is there are no direct flights from NY, so... hence the poll.

[Poll #555634]

To give a little more info, all flights are on the same airline. The 7 am ORD flight is 90% on time and the 8 am is 80% according to the website. There is only one flight a day to KIX. ORD gets quite a few flights from NY and is only about 2 1/2 hours away. To catch the 7 am flight I need to leave my home by 5:30 am and to catch the 8 am I need to leave by 6:30 am.
Thanks! ^_^

Ohhhhh... Actually, I prefer one large area with lots of wings sticking out, the satalite system is the worst. I would hate to have to get from one terminal to another at JFK. (though they finally put in an air train, but it's still a pain and you have to actually leave the terminal!

The international at JFK is very meh. There is one duty-free, one educational toys, one newstand, and that is about it! o_O The food court is a McD, a bad sandwich place, and a bad pizza place, and that is it. ;;_;; LGA has Au Bon Pain!

But yeah there are a ton of flights from JFK to NRT and back. I know UA, ANA, AA, and NW all have a direct and I think CO has one from Newark. Coming back from Japan, I will have a direct, since I am flying NRT-JFK on the flight I almost always take back. ^_^ It's nice because it leaves at 5ish, so I have a few hours of shopping in the morning I cna squeeze in XD;

Yeah, the satellite system definitely sucks. O'Hare's kind of this hybrid of both... I think the international terminal's the farthest from the middle, is all. <<;

I think the O'Hare international terminal should definitely have more stuff than that! I remember it being pretty big with lots of stores and things. ::nods:: Au Bon Pain, though~! Sounds nice.

Aha, and yay for direct flights! Those are indeed the best. And I like flights that leave not too early when going back. ::nods:: Those last couple of hours for shopping are crucial! XD

Hmmmm, I will have to see if I can pull up a map on-line. It's good though because there is a flight to Chicago nearly every hour from LGA. I guess Chicago is a popular destination and hub.

As long as you don't have to actually go outside and leave the terminal, I am happy. lol

Nice... big is good.

Generally, I spend my last day in Tokyo packing and sending out boxes lol Though I have gotten much better at packing now. But those last few hours are crucial! I once had to be back for a Bar Mitzvah on Sat, but the Doll Show was on Friday, so I checked out early, left my luggage in a locker at Tokyo Station, went to the show, made sure to leave by 12:30, caught a 1 pm NEX to NRT, and had no problem making my 5 pm flight, and got back to JFK 4pm on Friday. lol (and people say you can't time travel XD;;; )

Yeah, Chicago's a pretty big hub, if I'm not mistaken. ^_^;

Heh. I suck at packing - it takes me so long! I have no spatial skills whatsoever so I never know how to pack well. Sounds like you've totally got a system down though! XD
