RoccoMoco mentioned the iHealth Antigen Rapid Test.
I thought it could not be used for travel, but
I see that it can be used for entry into the U.S. if you follow the procedure below and take the test with online guidance.

This was under the light.
It's convenient not to have to go to the inspection station.
I'll put it in one of the suggestions.

Ehh ！
Is the free antigen test that pharmacies and other places in Japan offer
good ？
Kiki
Thanks for the great information.
I have some friends around me who are coming back this week
I will tell them ！ They all booked the Picapara PCR test for almost 10,000 yen, so it will be a big help if the free test is good.

Hanamaru-san,
Maybe there are two points,
1. whether the pharmacy's free antigen test meets the CDC requirements,
2. whether the form they prepare meets the immigration requirements,
I think.
1. seems to have a wide opening based on the posts in this thread.
As for 2., for example, I copied from ANA's information page （ https://anasalesa.com/covid-19_update/ ） but the following is a requirement:
The Kinoshita Group is a group of companies that are in the process of developing a new business. In the case of Kinoshita Group, everyone should add their date of birth and passport number in some way in the "personal details" section.
As for the language, I believe that either Japanese or English is acceptable as long as the airline company can determine it, but
I remember that English or a translation is preferred in case a CDC official needs to examine it upon entry into the U.S.
（ Sorry for not posting primary information ）

I am not familiar with the free tests available at pharmacies in Japan, so I can't say much more, but
I hope this helps.

① Personal details ： In addition to name, personally identifiable information （ Date of birth or passport number, etc. ）
*Note: Name and personally identifiable information on the negative certificate must match "passport". must be consistent.
② Date of specimen collection
③ Laboratory information （ Name and contact details of the medical institution where the test was performed ）
④ Test results must be listed as follows.
・ "Negative"
・ "Undetectable"
・ "SARS-CoV-2 RNA Not Detected"
・ "SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Not Detected"
・ "COVID-19 Not Detected"
・ "Not Reactive"
⑤ If the test method is one of the following CDC-approved approved by the CDC and approved in the country in which the following methods are used.

Regarding the language of the negative certificate, I think I understand the above description (#24).

Q: Do test results need to be in English? Will the airline require a hard copy of the test results? https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/before-you-go/covid-19_testing_required_US_Entry.html

Most of the places that do this in local pharmacies are not able to provide travel certificates as far as I could tell. They are only supposed to be used as a security check for domestic travel and are treated as free of charge in each region.

As for the Kinoshita Group, it is written in English and there are some missing parts, but it is issued as a certificate, so if it meets the airline's standards, it is qualitatively acceptable.

I believe that only family members living in the same household are originally allowed to register.
However, I think it is possible to add members to your account, although it is outside the terms and conditions.
There is a customer center just to the right of the store, so why don't you go there and check it out?

Hello. I went to Hawaii for the first time last year with my children. We found a place to stay on Vivinavi Hawaii and had great memories. The place we stayed for 2 weeks was with a person named Miya who posted on 3/24/2012. Please be assured that it is not a room share. It was very convenient because almost all the kitchen utensils and utensils were provided. It was about a 10 minute walk from Waikiki Beach. It's not minutes away from the beach, but it wasn't noisy at night and I slept well. There was also a small convenience store right below where we stayed, which was very helpful. The staff at the hotel, Miya, who manages the property, was very kind and helpful when I had a lot of questions.　I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a place to stay.

Charlie Taxi is recommended.
If you want a flat rate around Waikiki, $ 25 ＋ TAX ＋ 29 with tip $.
The minivans are Toyota Sienna and other minivans, so luggage should not be a problem.

Unfortunately, it looks like Arancino's has only been open for dinner since Corona.
（ By the way, the Beach Walk restaurant is also closed for dinner as of 4/20 ）
I am also a fan of Arancino's and look forward to the reopening of that great lunch.

The best thing to do is to ask your pet clinic.

If it is a pet clinic, they can tell you

ISakura is operated by Nobu at his home, without an office.

Channel J is now operating in Hilton Hawaiian Village, but
only 3 days a week.

Two other companies are also currently operating from their homes without offices.

I was able to return to Japan for the first time 4 days ago after fast track with a free PCR test because fast track reads the negative test results and turns green ！.

However, the MHLW website states that "written negative certificates must be presented" and also "written negative certificates must be presented" at check-in. Is it really "fast-tracking" that makes them unnecessary ？?

I returned just after fast track started at Narita.
MYSOS turned green the day before, but the check-in counter asked for negative proof and a government designated form. By the way, it is JAL.

I am also a Delta guy, but I took the May flight on JAL.
Honolulu → Haneda → Nagoya for regional flights.
Now it says that if the flight is cancelled, there is no change or difference if the flight is until November.
#Jarjaru, in your case, the free period must have passed ？

However, since I bought my ticket in February, I experienced 4 changes due to cancellations 😅
I called for about 3 hours and could not get through, and if I wanted to cancel, I could do it online. The first two times I cancelled and re-purchased because the price didn't change, and the third and fourth times I called for 2 hours and they changed the ticket.
The JAL person who handled my case was very courteous, and I was interested in her low attitude, even though it was not her fault that the flight was cancelled.

Hawaiian is slow to announce cancellations.
Currently, they only have the flight status until 5/31. I wish you a safe trip back home.

You will not be charged a change fee, but you will be charged the difference between the flight you are changing. I checked with JAL before purchasing my ticket, and they replied that if the flight is cancelled due to the airline's reasons, the difference between the flight and the one being changed will not be charged, but it was. I heard that depending on the time of year, day of the week, etc., that benefit may not apply … or something. Still, my family was better off, and my friend's family, who had already purchased Premier Economy, had to choose between flying via Mainland on a flight with Premier Economy or paying the downgrade penalty and flying direct in regular economy, because there were no Premier Economy seats available on the flight they were changing to. I had to pay both the downgrade penalty and the difference between the flight and the one I was changing to. Because of this, I plan to avoid using JAL as much as possible for the time being.

JAL mileage can be transferred to Zipair, so I transferred it to Zip. It seems you can use it to pay for in-flight shopping, food and drink, etc.

sean0914, thank you for your message. My final destination is Nagoya too, but I decided to fly to/from Tokyo because I was a bit worried about the transfer time at Haneda or Narita, and also because I wanted to see my siblings and family who live in Tokyo. I would be most happy if Delta would bring back the Nagoya flight, but I imagine that after the Tokyo flight is restored in October, they will look at the number of passengers and decide whether to reopen the Nagoya flight or not. I see that everyone is having a hard time contacting JAL. The people who answer the phone must be very busy. If I could get through to them, I would thank them.

Have a nice trip back home, sean0914.

Thank you, Jarjaru, for the additional information. It is worrisome as a consumer that when the time comes to make a change, the rule is not applicable, etc., etc., etc.
Also, the penalty for downgrading and paying the difference for the changed flight, that is really a crying shame.

Also, thanks for the information that JAL mileage can be transferred to ZipAir.
I will look into it.
As for other means, I heard that 8,000 miles can be converted to $ 40 gift cards to CVS, Burger King, HomeDepot, etc.
The conversion rate is poor, but I'm thinking gift cards would be nice for JAL mileage that is almost never used. I'd like to try it.

JAL's fuel surcharge will be 23,600 yen/one way from June ticketing.
Currently it is 12,700 yen/one way, which is high enough, but it is double that.
If you change your reservation in June, you will also be charged the difference in surcharge.
That's roughly $ 90/one way. Anyway, I hope things go as planned.
