I think I've heard somewhere that it is available in Japan, but I'm not sure ? You need to be on some kind of plan ? If you know what it is, please let me know.

The T Moble guy told me that it was not available in Japan -
I bought a SIM card in Japan, replaced it and used it.

I believe the speed is 2G, but you can use it in Japan.
Watching videos and such is slow, but texting is
normal. You can connect with Softbank.
Calls are 25 cents per minute.
My plan is a senior plan, so I don't think I can join T.
Of course, there are plans that are open to the general public, so please check.
Later, please search for T-mobile Japan use, available ? and so on.
You will see something that says you can use T-mobile in Japan.

I am a T-Mobile user. If you are on a T-Mobile plan, you can call T-Mobile customer service at #611 or go to their homepage and ask for a chat. You can also use chat if you go to their website. Or you can check in person at your local store.

By the way, I used to subscribe to T-Mobile's International plan, but the wifi in Japan was so weak that I had to rent wifi to use it, so I switched to a different plan. When I subscribed to the International plan, I was told that calls within Japan were free as long as the caller was connected to the wifi, but I did not use the plan because I heard that the recipient might be charged for international calls. When I really need to make a call during my stay in Japan, it is usually at train stations or airports, so I use public phones then, but it is difficult to find public phones in other places.

Thank you for your response.
I will ask my husband since he is eligible for the senior plan.
I will ask my husband to ask T-Moble if he can make a call between T-Moble and me in Japan, since I will be separated from him when I arrive in Japan. My English conversation skills are not good enough.

About a baby carrier for travel with a little over a year old.

I'm going back to Japan temporarily, but I'll be going here and there instead of relaxing at my parents' house, what baby carrier do you recommend for traveling ? I found one called "Baby Air" on YouTube. How does this really work ? I would also like to know if you have any recommendations and if you have any hand-me-downs, I would like to buy them.
Of course, I will be bringing a stroller, so I plan to use the baby carrier only if I need it, so I'm thinking about having a compact one since my current favorite Ergo is too bulky.

Check-in congestion at Honolulu Airport for return flights

I'm about to take a Hawaiian Airlines flight from Honolulu to Narita, and I was wondering if anyone who has flown Hawaiian recently could tell me about the arrival airport and how long it took to check in ?
My friend who flew a few months ago said it was pretty crowded and took over 1.5 hours to check in. I heard that it took over 1.5 hours to check in.

Also, for reference, if you have flown Japanese airlines, could you please tell me the name of the airline, the airport of arrival, and how long it took?
I hope the time will be shortened since negative proof will no longer be required !

Thank you very much.

This is old, but I flew to Haneda on JAL in June.
JAL started check-in 3 hours before the flight, but I arrived about 20 minutes before and
got in line at the front of the check-in queue. I was able to go to the counter right after the check-in started,
confirmed my MySOS ( I don't remember if I showed a negative proof on paper ) and checked in, almost like a normal check-in time.

By the way, after arriving at Haneda, I remember it was 40-50 minutes until baggage pickup.
I think it was about 15 minutes to disembark and then about 30 minutes for the subsequent procedures.

This month I flew Hawaiian to Haneda Airport and made a connection on a domestic flight. Daniel ・ Check-in at Inouye International Airport was relatively smooth, taking only about 20 minutes, but the security checkpoint for departure was extremely crowded.

I think if you prepare yourself to be at the airport about 3 hours in advance, you will have no problem.
You will need to show your My SOS when you arrive in Japan, so we recommend you to prepare it in advance. If you don't have it, it will take about 40-50 minutes from the time you arrive at the airport to the time you can go through the process, and you will have to walk a long way.

Thank you for sharing your experience, I am relieved to hear that it doesn't seem to take that long to check in at both JAL and Hawaiian. I will try to be ready to arrive 3 hours before.

Raising an International Married Couple

Question

I have learned that when an international married couple raises their child with each of them interacting with the baby in their own language, it can be a little confusing and slow to start speaking, but I would like to hear about your experiences. I would also like to know what kind of education you gave to your children afterwards if you raised them bilingual ? I am currently raising a 0 year old.

I tell you this as someone who has been there. Depending on the mother, your child can become bilingual. Since I was a child, I had all my TV-related activities in Japanese and read Japanese books, etc. I never taught them English. I did not teach them any English. English is taught in the U.S., so there is no problem. I made sure that I never spoke to my children in English. I think it is the mother's effort that determines whether or not her child will become bilingual or not.
Good luck!

Thank you Tomi !
Your mother's influence is absolutely huge. I think it would be very difficult for an international married couple to learn Japanese if their mother is American.
When I watch YouTube videos of bilingual people, even if their parents are Japanese, if they grow up in the US, they prefer to use English because Japanese is difficult, so I think you have to educate them very well to learn Japanese. I will actively try to speak Japanese !.

We will have a 49th day in Hawaii for a relative who passed away in Japan at Hongwanji next month. There will be only two participants, a husband and wife.
We have already paid an offering at Hongwanji temple in Japan, but if we have it done in Hawaii, how much should we pay ? Since our relative died in Japan and we cannot attend, we will have it done at the same Hongwanji temple.
We would appreciate it if you could help us.

Since no one seems to have written about this, I will.

I also held the first anniversary of the death of a relative who passed away in Japan
at a temple of the same denomination here.
I remember it was expensive in Japan, but here
I heard it was about half the price in Japan.
However, since this is a memorial service for the deceased,
I don't mind paying more than that if you want.

At the restaurant where I work, the manager receives
tips.
I believe that managers are not allowed to
receive tips, but I would like to know
if you are familiar with this.
If you are not allowed to accept tips,
please let me know where I can report it
so I can help.

Even if you are a manager, it depends on your employment system, so it is not necessarily true that you should not receive tips because you are a manager.

Has the law changed ? when ?

I think the employment structure is determined by the company and not above the law.

I think the manager there is in need of money. Don't make such a big deal about it, why don't you at least tip him?

He must be a poor guy. I think you should get out of that place and start a business.

It is a common practice in Japanese-owned restaurants.
In the restaurant where I work, the tip is divided among everyone working that day, including the owner, not just the manager. The owner works hard and there are many customers who come because of the owner, so I give up.

It's sold at the chef zone, in 1 kilo bottles, right? I always buy it with the garlic paste version of that. It's in the refrigerated area.

Correction of mistake It was ginger and ginger paste that was kept with garlic paste.
The white lid. The red lid is the garlic paste and the white lid is the ginger.
Sam's, Donkey, and Cosco do not sell this size. By the way, what else I buy here is 1.8 liters of yakisoba sauce or something else.

Go to the Hawaii State Department of Helth website and search for

The FOOD SAFETY CLASS
.

I got it before Corona, but it still seems to be held daily.
When I was there, it ended with a 2 day class at Aiea. It was free.
