Err generally the closer you buy to the date the more expensive the tickets are.

Look to budget airlines that fly to Japan - and wait for a sale. Always wait for a sale - check out the trends they have with sales, what periods they cover. Generally July is a peak season for travel so finding a good deal will be harder.

I'm planning to see a June/July show as well, if not one of the October shows she usually does. But most likely will be there for a summer show. Finally will see Ayumi and Japan this year. No ifs, no buts, ITS HAPPENING.

I went to see Ayu in October 2009, I bought my ticket in April. It was the best deal I'd ever seen, 950$CAD for a round trip ticket. Normally they go for 1,200-1,500$!!

So it really depends on the season you're going, from where your departing, where you're landing, etc. I would advice against waiting at the last minute, just keep looking every other day if not every day, you don't really have anything to loose by starting your search early on. Worse comes to worse you'll just buy a ticket later rather than sooner...

I noticed summer and Christmas holidays are the busiest. I'm planning to attend CDL12-13 so I'll probably be looking at tickets in June to get a heads up.

how do you check for a sale? Do you mean through something like travelocity? or expedia? or the actual airline??

Thanks for all the help!!
