The dentist I have been going to for almost 20 years is Vietnamese-American, and he always talks about how he does not extract teeth as much as possible, which is rare in the U.S. I think he is one of the best. I think his skill is the best, and Esther at Hyginiest is also one of the best. Esther at Hyginiest is also one of the best. The place is in Irvine.

Dear SJDummy
Thanks to you, I was able to dine in a private room with 8 friends the other day. We happened to be in Ala Moana and went for an early lunch to make a reservation.
Since there were 8 of us and we were going to use a private room at a busy time, I asked for an appetizer and sushi platter for 8 people in advance to make it as easy as possible for the restaurant to accommodate us. The waitress who took our reservation told us that the special menu would take a long time, so we were grateful for the help. Half of the four of us were ready at the time of our reservation on the day of the event, but another car got stuck in traffic and the remaining four arrived less than 15 minutes late. About 5 minutes after our reservation time, a Japanese man who looked like a chef came and asked, "May I serve you a dish since it is your time

This is off topic, but I have found that even in Japanese companies and restaurants, if you expect the same service as in Japan, you may be disappointed or surprised.
But I love Tonkatsu Tamato because the food is of Japanese quality and the service is courteous and friendly.

When I had a meal at the counter of Katsumitori Sushi before, the chef in front of me was opening and closing the door with a bang ！ bang ！ about 4 times a minute, so loud that it made me feel restless and uncomfortable and it was ringing in my ears. I was looking forward to sushi, but I lost interest in it.　I thought he was a crass chef. I would have liked to feel a little more hospitality.

A couple of our neighbors who have been very kind to us have returned to Japan permanently.
They asked me to forward their mail to my address and I have done so.
But I also have tax, Medicare, and other important mail.
Each time I send them to Japan, I wonder if there is a system to forward them directly to Japan ？

I wonder what I should do if I think the mail will keep coming for the rest of my life.
I made the mistake of agreeing to it so easily.

Hi. I thought ！ ！ it's the same person ？.
I don't do online banking, I translated English letters for them, and of course I called them about subscriptions, cancellations, etc. I even took the time to make appointments for covid vaccine appointments for those over 65 years old. I was doing them a favor because I was taking care of them, but when there was a problem, they complained.
That's right. It takes up a lot of my time. I am a full time single mother and pressed for time. When I finally get back home, they want me to send them a postcard with a note.

I'd be happy to do it for you if I could get paid for my time
but instead of going on and on
you need to break it up into periods just one year and find your own solution in that time.

Parking in Waikiki

Hi ！
I work in Waikiki, but I live far from town and I really need to drive to work. And my job has no parking.
And I work an on-call job. Ala Wai and other places are not available every time and I can't be late because I'm in customer service and it's very stressful to find parking every time.

So ！ I was wondering if there is anyone in Waikiki who has a parking space attached to their house but is not using it and would be willing to rent it to me for a reasonable fee. Each workday is from 2 to 4 hours. The number of days also varies, but it is around 10 days.

I could just rent a regular monthly parking lot, but I have a small child and can't work that much, so I don't feel like paying for expensive parking ….

I know it may not be that convenient, but I thought I would write here in case ！

if you have any other good parking information, I would appreciate it ！

Please let me know ！

Delta Honolulu － Haneda flight start appears to be delayed.

I was checking my reservations for Delta's Honolulu
Haneda － flight starting in December for my return home for the New Year's holiday.
However, about a week ago, this flight stopped showing up in my search.

I called Delta and was told that due to the weak yen,
Honolulu － Haneda flights are not expected to start until March.

This has not been announced yet, so there may be some changes in the future, but we hope this will be helpful.

I have been saving my Delta miles to take advantage of the Honolulu － Nagoya flights, but
even Haneda flights are in this situation, so it may take some time before Nagoya flights resume.
I am also disappointed that the 2-year discount I got by using my credit card will expire in January next year.

This time, I booked JAL's Honolulu － direct flight to Nagoya, hoping to buy a ticket before the fuel surcharge goes up.
The flight is only once a week, but it was in line with my winter vacation schedule, so I chose this one.
Now I just hope that the direct flight will be cancelled and I will not have to change flights.

About 10 years ago, when I had an emergency return trip to Japan, Delta was very good to me and I have been using Delta Nagoya flights ever since.
I had assumed that I could use this flight, but it has completely changed with Corona.
As you said, Delta does not have domestic flights within Japan, so if you fly to Tokyo and then to Nagoya, you will have to pay extra for the Shinkansen and other expenses. JAL's Nagoya-Tokyo-Honolulu route has many earlier flights departing from Nagoya, so I really hope they will fly as scheduled.

＞ Mr. KUMIHASHI
I am sorry to hear that your booked flight has been cancelled.
I see that you did not receive any notice of cancellation by e-mail or otherwise.
Since the flight itself is cancelled, I hope it is a full refund.
You can call Delta's Japan office at +81-50-3850-8388 ） at 14:00 or earlier in Hawaii and you will be connected immediately.

From a quick look, Honolulu-Haneda flights are currently around $ 1200 for each company.
All companies seem to be charging a fuel surcharge for flights to/from Japan, so the price will go up from October.
I read somewhere that the fuel surcharge for December-January tickets is about the same as for August-September tickets,
I guess it is better to buy now than later ＆ I guess I am safe.

In my case, I was planning to fly to Haneda using e-credit $ 200, but
it was cancelled and I had to give up.

Earlier this year, Delta Air Lines had made the Honolulu － Haneda route available for booking, but
yesterday, when I checked the June flights, only flights via were available.
I called Delta to see if this was the case, and was told that they are currently reconsidering the start date of this route, and
no information has come down to the inquiry desk as to when exactly it will start.

If you have already made a reservation and have not received a flight cancellation notice, please check with us.
The number you can call from the U.S. in Japanese is 800-327-2850.

Honolulu － With this situation at Haneda, it seems unlikely that the Honolulu － Nagoya route will be restored in the near future.
I think we need to consider including credit cards.

By the way, when I checked a few weeks ago,
the second piece of baggage on the Pacific route is now free, the same as before Corona.

Koji,
I am one of those who used to fly Delta because my parents live in Nagoya.
About 2 weeks ago, I was searching for tickets
Honolulu → Haneda → Nagoya for $ 1300.
Haneda to Nagoya was by ANA, so I thought it would be possible if I didn't have to get a separate domestic ticket.

Honolulu → Haneda is the only place to fly with miles, but
I thought it would be a good way to use up the miles I had accumulated.

but I also checked yesterday and it only comes up via Korea.

And while I was in Japan in late January, I saw on the Japanese news that Delta Honolulu ↔ Nagoya is pulling out.

I can't find anything by looking it up, so I'll paste avi-times's.

https://avi-times.com/archives/2505

I have quite a few miles I have saved, but I am thinking of selling them on Mercari in Japan ？.

nuiloamanma,

thanks for the link.
I had seen the news about Delta stopping Nagoya － Detroit flights and withdrawing from Centrair, but I didn't understand until
the link that they were completely withdrawing and would not be coming back in the future.
I know a friend of mine who is a flight attendant for Delta, so I will ask him if I can get the inside scoop.

Honolulu like nuiloamanma found → Haneda → I think it is possible if Delta arranges the flight to Nagoya, but
if not, it is quite hard because the cost of bullet train or domestic flight is added.
The situation may change again when the corona and the weak yen/strong dollar ends and more people travel to Hawaii, but I don't know when that will be ～.

The Amex Delta Gold card seems to be downgradeable to the Blue with no annual fee, so
we don't have to worry about the impact on our credit score.
The recent award for Gold seems to be a 15% reduction in miles required, so it might be a good idea to use that before downgrading. But even with the award, you still need 85,000 miles, which is much higher than in the past. I wonder if the required miles will drop when the fuel surcharge settles down.
