Not the same one, but for a shower head I bought in Japan
I think you don't have to worry about it, because it usually fits here, as it is usually the case.

Amount of milk that can be carried on board an airplane

When I went to a remote island the other day, I asked airport security if I could bring in more than 3oz of powdered milk and was told it was okay, but I am not sure if my English was understood, so let me check here.
A large baby bottle can hold 8oz, so I guess I can bring in 8oz. ？ I know I need to because I will declare it to security. I am thinking that for long flights, such as going to Japan, I can just bring the powder and make it on the plane. Any advice in this area would be appreciated.

The TSA website explains the following regarding powdered milk, etc.
"Powdered milk, breast milk, infant beverages, baby/toddler food in quantities exceeding 3.4 ounces or 100 milliliters ☺ (including puree bags) are permitted as carry-on baggage and need not fit in a quart size bag. Powdered milk, breast milk, infant beverages, and baby/toddler food products (including puree bags)} are considered medically necessary liquids.

Thank you for checking ！
I was able to confirm that you can bring in more than 3.4 oz, but I'm not sure what the maximum is. I'm going to the islands next month, so I'll ask the attendant directly again.

I'm afraid it's not milk, but I always bring more than 1 liter total of water and other liquids.
At that time, I am told that more liquid is not a problem for the baby.

Yes, I have been back to Japan 7 times since my child was born and I have a 500ml plastic bottle and a 650ml water bottle with barley tea, water, etc. ！
I don't know about other companies as it is only JAL, but I think you can usually bring your own for children so please do ask😊.

At the Kalakaua scramble intersection around 10:00 p.m. This is an automobile. I, the contributor, am a passenger.
The other party is two pedestrians. The signal on the car side is green
The pedestrian signal is red, but there are two pedestrians who ignore the signal
The driver gets angry and goes all the way to hit them with his car, even though he should have waited for 5 seconds.
Of course, the other driver gets angry and hits and breaks the mirror. The driver gets even angrier at the other driver and parks his car on the street to chase after the other driver, but he loses sight of him because there are so many people around. Of course, the driver disregarded the traffic light and hit the other driver's mirror.
Of course, the pedestrian who jaywalked is to blame, but I don't understand the psychology of going out of your way to hit that pedestrian with your car. It's like going out of your way to get into trouble.
Am I wrong to think that the driver has a bad character or a narrow mind? ？ I am worried that I might have an accident someday.

The submitter is right.

This driver is lucky he only broke the mirror.
If the other driver is malicious, this would be a case that could become a litigation issue and result in hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages.
If you are a green card holder, you will be forced to return home.

You should think about how to deal with them.

Dear Contributor aloha

The driver is your friend ？ boyfriend ？ or ？

I think when you drive, the true nature of a person comes out.

I think you should break up with him. Be glad you are not married.

My husband saw a white car and a pedestrian in trouble last night ？. I hope it wasn't the poster, but he said the car side was at fault from his side. Of course it is bad when a pedestrian disregards a traffic light, but to go out of your way to hit a pedestrian for that is attempted murder. I don't think it's a human thing to do. I wonder if they were not reported ？ I hope they were not.
I'm sorry to hear that, but as others have said, I recommend that you get rid of him as soon as possible. You will make yourself unhappy if you get involved with crazy people. Best wishes to the submitter.

Luggage from Japan to Hawaii

Thankfully, my parents in Japan send me cardboard boxes of things to Hawaii quite often, but it costs a lot of money for shipping. I know there are some things that I can get in Hawaii, but I want to send them to my grandchildren.
I am under the influence of the corona. Due to the Corona
I heard that it is no longer allowed to write the contents by hand and it has to be typed in on a computer, which my parents can't do, so they have to go to the post office to do it for them. ？ but
I heard that small parcels are not accepted in the US yet.
I'm not thinking of shipping, but if you have any information on how to send this kind of thing at a reasonable price, I would appreciate it
Thank you very much.

I learned a lot.

Eviction from a rented house

Housing
#1
  • Mrs.Kanaina
  • mail
  • 2022/10/06 10:43

I am not knowledgeable about real estate contracts and would like to discuss a request to vacate a rented house. I am currently living in a place where there is a main house and a separate building on one property, and I am renting in the separate one. The main house is also rented and occupied by another family. I have just received an email from the realtor giving me 45 days to move out.
The realtor says it is because they want to rent both buildings to one family.
It seems that the realtor did not make it clear, but it is because the family next door wants to use the separate building we are currently living in.
I can understand if the house owner wants to sell the house, rebuild, etc., but it is somewhat understandable that we have to leave because the tenants next door have outgrown their space and want to use the
place we are now living in.
I know that if the owner issues an eviction order, we have to leave within 45 days, but is there any particular problem with being disadvantaged because of another tenant?
Please do not hesitate to contact me.

Dear Topix
Renters being pushed around by unreasonable landlords is
a thing here in Hawaii.
We also got a 30 day notice from the owner
and we talked to a lawyer and got him to pay for our move.
Good luck and stand up to the unreasonable as much as possible.

A friend of mine recently moved out of the apartment he was renting and went back to Japan due to illness.I told him over I months ago that I would be moving out, but he has not refunded my deposit.
I have tried calling them several times, but they do not answer.
If anyone knows where I can file a complaint
please let me know.

Residency rights in Hawaii real estate leases are lower than property owner's rights, making it easier to sell the property even if it is leased. The law does not allow you to ask the tenant to move out in the middle of the contract period. However, when the contract term expires, the resident is obligated to leave the property as is. Therefore, the right of occupancy can be said to be only for the duration of the lease contract. And it is not possible to extend the lease contract unless the property owner gives permission to do so. For your information

Sue, what does your contract say ？
because if you terminate before the expiration date, you may not get your deposit back
even if you gave a month's notice. I used to rent a place before the expiration date of the contract, I had to pay
the rent until the expiration date.
So I found another tenant and asked him to come in at the same time we left
so that he could take over the contract.

I suggest you look over the rental agreement one more time.
Was the property rented directly from the owner?
Normally, the cleaning is done when you check out of the property, and
you should receive a refund after the cleaning.
In such a case, write a letter to the owner,
disclosing the charges for cleaning and repairs, if any.
and write your contact information and when you would like a reply by.
Send a note to the owner.
If I don't hear from them by when, I write that I will consult the police.
I heard a lawyer say this on the radio once.

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.

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.
