I've got a few days off in a row next month and really wanted to go to Chiang Mai, but I feel like I need at least 4 travel days for that trip which would eat up too many of my days off -- plus can't get there on DAL metal which removes a warm fuzzy from the nonrev picture. Was thinking perhaps Tokyo as I've never been there, any recommendations on the min days to spend there as well as a best departure city to assure Delta 1?
TIA

Sorry can’t help you on Tokyo, stationed at Mishawa many years ago but I was poor and had 4 kids. Our adventures consisted of trips to the local Ramen house. The kids did love the local fish market so that is definitely a must see if you can get to one. If it slimes, slithers or crawls in the ocean the Japanese will eat it. Makes for some interesting viewing and smells.

I would agree on your Chiang Mai assessment. I lived in Thailand for 3 years and when I go back I always do at least 10 days. The trip is brutal and you don’t want to be thinking about the return trip as soon as you get there. For future reference KAL has a direct Inchon to Chiang MI flight that works with our inbound Delta flights. I think it was around $100 Zed.

. Maybe I can convince the wife to go skiing instead of eating, nah, probably won't be able to do that

Good friend asking about possibility of a oneway buddy pass from FRA or AMS early January.
I hate buddy passes and also hate going to airport on my off days, so I am clueless. I can come up with a thousand reasons to tell him to buy a positive space ticket.
What say you sagely world travelers? Might it be worth the risk for the budget shopper?
