yeah niseko isnt bad
its people trying to get other people to not go there really
when it comes to consistent powder….niseko is #1 in Japan
Not interested in Niseko?????
nah not right now i prefer to go nozawa and myoko ....
i think i might stick to my dates and just go ...
I wouldn’t listen to crap that some people spew about Niseko bein overrated, if that’s ya mind set!!!!!
I say, go and experience it yaself in order to form ya own opinion of the place!!!!!
After all, everyone that talks negative about it, did?????
Yep 100% agree with Mizu!
Yeah, and one reason why we’re goin JAL even though there’s a chance of gettin charged excess for our boards!!!!!
Along with travelin during the daylight hours as opposed to o’night QANTAS!!!!!
Our SYD>TOKYO>CTS is only $1300, includes 2 x 23kg + Carry on, meals, entertainment, so I don’t really see the savings in Jetstar at $1100 for SYD>TOKYO anyways?????
In all honesty the reason i did not want to go to Niseko has nothing to do what ppl say, like you said Mizu & Oz i will be the judge of what is good and what is not.
For some reason when i was researching my next Japow trip i looked in to nozawa and myoko before i looked in to Niseko and when i saw some footage of nozawa and myoko i kind of had my mind set on those places.
But i dunno i might see and maybe contact fatima4u and see what they doing and maybe organize my dates and meet with them… dunno yet .....
but not bothered if i go by myself of with someone.
I just think its nice after shredding have few drinks and relax with a mate/mates…. and another reason i prefer to go with someone is you get better video footage heheheh ruther then had cam and pole lol ..
1300 SYD to CTS is damn cheap
You staying overnight in Tokyo or going direct onward to CTS
last time i checked when you arrive in CTS the last of the normal buses would of left

Yeah, a lot of them are gooses on other forums just tryin to big note themselves, and make out like they’re the experts of snow travel too!!!!!
They also rag on places like Whistler, and even though I’ll admit that the snow isn’t as good as Japan from my limited personal experience, I would happily go back to Whistler in a heartbeat!!!!!
Anyone that wouldn’t wanna go back, is just a negative douche bag!!!!! IMO!!!!!

Mate, not sure about the after hill beers in Nozawa until I experience it in Feb, but in Hirafu Village along with the nearby bus ride to Kutchan, there are so many cool little spots to drink/meet/eat that ya can’t possibly do them all in a stay!!!!!
Plus if ya don’t feel like drinkin, or ya have a sleepy day from a big night before hand, ya can ride till 9:00 at night every night of the week!!!!!

in your case probably NO as jet star doesn’t include meal or entertainment, and if you add that on top it will = the same prize

Funny! Thats exactly why I like Qantas! Rather waste a night in the air than day!
But Mizu you have a month so no rush i suppose!
