A good sale to Tokyo. Air China and other Mainland Chinese airlines are pricing this route for less but we would pay extra to avoid them based on our experience flying with them.

ITA will price this in the in the $690s from Newark and $702 from Boston. However, using those same dates on Priceline, it’ll show about $30 cheaper for Newark while there is no additional discount on Boston’s pricing.

Here are some practical tips for a 24 hour layover in Tokyo
