Yeah I got mine extremely early (well maybe 3 months advance) and it was only like $1600 and included 4/5 night stay at the Hotel Sunroute Plaza Shinjuku hotel. That was in 2008. I used travelocity.

Well, I dunno for sure, but every time I've looked, it's a bit cheaper (like $200-400) like 2 weeks or so in advance.

That's true. But it's risky around busier periods, like summer, Christmas, etc.

Closer to the actual date, airlines are more keen to fill up all the seats so if you look a week before you're likely to get a better deal.

I don't know why flights are so expensive in America
