Seems like ANA and JAL are the way to go, but it's hard to find flights operated by them. Hows United and Delta on those LAX/SFO to Tokyo legs?

Any strong opinions on Haneda vs Narita?

Any other tips from those who've been?

Tokyo Disney is near one of those. Do the Mario Kart experience through Tokyo.

I've flown to Narita 5x or so, it's fine. No opinion on airline, Singapore is

I flew United LAX-NRT and NRT-SFO last year. It’s the same plane . International United is a lot nicer than domestic.

Look at Singapore Airlines or even ZIPAIR out of LAX...

Haneda is the preferred airport

Flown into both. All I can say is…enjoy the food. It’s awesome and cheap.

When do you plan to go? Some good prices over the next few months

Decent prices around that time. HND is more downtown Tokyo. NRT is further out

You’ll maybe be tempted to spend all your time in Tokyo

Add to that list the central train station. Not a big baseball fan
