Series of ‘semi last-minute’ flights return to Japan for less!
China Eastern are flying the new A350s and Boeing 777s via Shanghai to Tokyo.
There’s a visa-free transit for Shanghai for Aussies if you feel like you could use the transit for a city visit.: “The 144-hour visa-free transit policy has been carried out in Shanghai, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang in east China to facilitate international travelers since January 30th, 2016. The policy, aimed at boosting tourism and business in the Yangtze River Delta Region, allows passengers from 51 countries or regions to transit in Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang for no more than 144 hours (six days) without holding a visa. During the layover period, passengers can move around the three places but are not permitted to visit other cities of China.”
