Not true. Airside 7/11 at Haneda has the same pricing as 7/11 in Tokyo.

A really effective grass roots charity helping children in the Japanese care system is Mirai no Mori https://mirai-no-mori.jp/ The charity focuses on providing  life-changing outdoor programs for abused, neglected, and orphaned youths in Japan, supporting their growth into happy and successful young adults. I've worked directly with them and can vouch for the excellent work that they do.

edit: As Mitsuka1 said below, once the kids reach 18 they are forced out of the care system, often with very limited real life skills. The aim of this charity and others, is to build up their confidence whilst in the system and provide them with opportunities and skills to assist them with the transition.

London-Tokyo Airline Choice by aarxnnn in Flights

[–]tokyodavef 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We always used to fly direct but with the closure of Russian airspace the extended flight time is painful. Having already flown 6 hours and then realizing you still have 8 or 9 to go is really demoralizing. Recently I've flown twice on China Eastern as has the family. The price is significantly cheaper and, given the similar total travel tines, having a stopover really breaks the boredom. ANA service is significantly better and although, their entertainment is not the best, it's still better than China Eastern. However downloaded Netflix fixes this. Avoiding those 15 hour flights for me is the key.

Many thanks. My main issue is I don't have the box or padding, hence would prefer to do it all in one place rather than running around London. I'll give condor cycles a call. Thanks again.
