KIKU on Spectrum is channel 9 or 1009.

Terrestrial channel 22.

KIKU was revived after KITV4's parent company bought it.
So you can watch KITV4 News on KIKU.

Narita Airport Fast Track Quarantine freeWIFI connection

Question
#1
  • popoki808
  • mail
  • 2022/06/12 20:02

Hello. I am planning to return to Japan next month
and was going to
rent a pocket Wi-Fi from Hawaii, but it was already fully booked.

If I can't connect to freeWi-Fi immediately at Narita airport quarantine
I don't think I can use the fast track app on my phone
（ It's an optional app so it doesn't seem absolutely necessary ）
I'll have a hard time entering the country I'm worried about that.

My kids and I have unlocked sim free iphones, but
we usually use H2o sims, so we don't have a contract with a major US cell company.

1. Is there a freeWi-Fi connection in the quarantine area at Narita Airport ？
Is there a password to use the Wi-Fi ？

2. ？
3 Is there a recommended US cell phone company that allows data use in Japan ？

Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

I recently returned to Japan.

I was able to connect to free wifi at Narita airport right away.

There was a PCR check at Narita Airport when I entered Japan

I would not have been without FREE WIFI.

If you have an address in Japan, you can rent a

Wifi router for delivery or pickup at Narita Airport. Since the yen is weak against the dollar, paying in yen is a good deal, and

I think Japanese router rentals are faster during your stay in Japan.

It depends on the model.

Regarding question 2, please look up Japan sim card on amazon and you will find some information. I am currently in Japan and it is working fine. I was in Haneda, but when I checked the connection after landing, it was not working and I was very frustrated. In the end, it was just bad reception near the tarmac, and once the plane door opened, it stabilized.

I am planning to move and rent a house in Waikiki. In the school district, it would be Jefferson Elementary, but I am concerned because I don't have any information from people who have actually been there.
I would like to know about any kind of school.
My child speaks English but it takes time to learn.
If you know of any other public schools you would recommend, please let me know. Thank you in advance.

Public school information, etc. can be found at the following sites, if you are comfortable with English.

I don't know about now, but when I moved here 7 years ago, I remember that Waikiki Elementary was a very high performing elementary school.

Hello.
My daughter was at Jefferson.
She was in 4th grade and 5th grade, but
she said it was so much more fun than going to private school. \Â(She went to private school all the way through preschool. \v363> The kids enjoyed going there and the teachers were great and both parents and kids were happy.
Waikiki elementary school was recommended to us because there were many Japanese students, but
our child was not able to cross the border
(even the application was rejected).
If you want to go to Waikiki,
Ala Wai elementary school
Liholiho elementary school is also popular

I hope this helps you.

Caught corona, due to enter Japan.

I have corona, and I've been recovering for 5-7 days, and my symptoms are mild and I'm doing well, but I need to be tested before entering Japan
Japan itself doesn't recommend PCR after recovering from corona, because the positive test will be there for a while
but I need to be tested before entering Japan
and there are several ways to test for corona, so I was wondering if I can get through with a different test instead of choosing PCR. But I need to be tested before entering Japan and there are several ways to test, so I wonder if there is anyone out there who can help me to get through this test without choosing PCR.

Dear Mr.

Antigen test is Quantitative Antigen Test （ Quantitative Antigen Test （ CLEIA, ECLIA ）. This test is usually negative after a positive post-isolation period. If the home test kit is negative, there is a high probability that this antigen test will also be negative.

It seems that after a positive corona test, PCR may remain positive even after a period of isolation, but this antigen test has a high probability of being negative.

I am expecting my first baby in Hawaii and would like to know if there are any large baby stores on Oahu ？
I would like to try out strollers and carriers and buy a play mat, crib, etc.
I have been to Nordstrom, Target, and Walmart, but I felt they didn't have much selection. Do I still have to buy online? I think there were several stores on the island before Corona, but if anyone knows of any that are still open or any information on new stores, I would love to hear from you.

Congratulations ♡
I have two children. When I had my son, which was about 5 years ago, there was a Baby's Brass on Oahu.
It is now Foodland in the mall with Dunkin Donuts and TJ Maxx in Pearl City
It was the biggest one and they sold baby bottles, clothing, toys and cribs and anything and everything baby related. That place has now gone out of business, which is sad.
Target, Walmart, and then maybe online 😭😭
It's fun to buy baby stuff ♡
Have fun being pregnant ♡!

Dual Nationality Travel ・ Departure and Entry

Problem / Need advice
#1
  • 二重国籍
  • mail
  • 2022/06/02 11:59

My child has dual US/Japan citizenship and entered Japan with a Japanese passport and is now in Japan. I would like to have the name on the return ticket changed to the name on the U.S. passport, but I am having trouble getting in touch with Zipair at all.

I e-mailed Zipair many times before my departure from Japan for another matter, but in the end I left without receiving a reply, so I have a feeling that I will not receive a reply this time either. In that case, if I keep the name on the ticket as my Japanese passport name and show both my Japanese and US passports at the departure counter at Narita, will I be able to leave the country for the US (Hawaii)?

Up until now, the airline responded immediately and I was able to have my return ticket changed to my US passport name and return without any problems, but Zipair's phone and chat are not connected at all, and emails are not answered at all, and I have sent a DM to their official account on Instagram. I have also sent them a DM, but they have not responded at all and I am having trouble.

I am sorry for repeating myself. Do you know which name and passport number should be written on the negative certificate for return, Japanese passport name or American passport name? Since the airline ticket is under the Japanese passport name, should the name and passport number on the negative certificate also be the Japanese one? Or should I use the name and passport number of my US passport since it is a negative certificate for entry into the US? If you know, please let me know. Please let me know if you know.

I did the opposite and bought it under my US passport name as I did before Corona. Two days ago, I checked with ANA and they asked me to buy it with my Japanese passport name and I am wondering if I have to change my name. Has anyone purchased with an American passport name ？ I would like some information.
As for the negative certificate, I believe it is the Japanese passport name when entering Japan and the US passport name when returning to the US.

Hi
I am returning home three times to the Corona Disaster with my daughter, 3 years old, who has dual citizenship.
Since the airline ticket is from Hawaii first, I purchased a round trip ticket under the name of my US passport, and presented both passports when departing from Hawaii and from Japan.
When entering the country, I entered with the passport of each country of entry.

PCR is also in the name of the person entering each country. When departing from Hawaii, PCR is in the name of Japanese passport since it is necessary for entering Japan, and when departing from Japan, PCR is inspected in the name of American passport since it is necessary for entering Hawaii and America.

The airline ticket is in the name of the U.S. passport, and there is no problem at all when departing from Japan.

#10 11 dual citizenship Dear
I see ！
The staff I spoke to on the phone yesterday told me that they don't usually do names and that it is the same name for the return trip.
I am a first time returnee with my child, so I don't know a lot of things, but I will go as is for now ☺ ︎

Sorry, but I don't know about the negative proof for the return trip, as I return tomorrow. But when I do, I plan to use my child's Japanese passport name.

By the way, JAL customer center was very crowded and I waited for almost 2 hours.

Topic.
After summarizing your valuable experiences, it seems to me that I don't have to change the name on my return ticket, and as long as I have two passports, I can use the name of either country.

Also, since Japan is under the Corona entry restrictions, I assumed that only a Japanese passport would be allowed to enter Japan, so I purchased a ticket with a Japanese passport name, but I see that a Japanese passport can enter Japan with an American passport name. I will buy a ticket with the name of my American passport next time, just like I did before Corona. My biggest concern was which country's passport name to use for the negative certificate for the return trip, the Japanese or the U.S. However, the negative certificate and the inspection when entering the U.S. are no longer required due to the travel relaxation, so my concern about the name on the negative certificate has been resolved.

Zipair's Japanese service is still completely unreachable, but they told me that they are relatively free in languages other than Japanese, so if you can contact them in English or any other language, please use that service. I sent an email to them in English, but they didn't reply, but now I know that I can get a negative certificate.

Thank you all for your valuable experiences and advice.
