those rates are rape...call a jap based agency in a big city...or call a travel agency in a chinatown in any big city...they should be able to find better rates...are those just from the west coast cities? or do they include travel from houston?

May 5th-May 16th...I would like to leave from either Los Angeles or San Fran..since we have a free domestic trip with continental airlines, i figured i could just fly to San Fran or LA and then re-check in, Its about 400-500 dollars cheaper to do that rather than fly from houston and connect or go non stop
