I am just returning home using Zip Air.

I chose this airline because the price was more reasonable than other airlines. I decided to purchase Zip Air because the price was more reasonable than other airlines and I also considered the cost of the PCR test required to enter Japan internationally and to return to Hawaii.


The Zip Air counter was located near the JAL counter and Hawaii Airline staff assisted us with check-in.
On the plane, there are no monitors on the seats
so you might want to bring your own iPad or something. The seats are not equipped with monitors, so you might want to bring your own iPad, but the Wi-Fi was free
so I spent my time messaging my family and surfing the net.
No drinks were served, only meal offerings and a small bottle of water. After getting off the plane, I had to sit in a chair and wait for almost an hour to submit my documents before the PCR test, but since I had only had a small bottle of water for in-flight use, it was very difficult to spit it out.
It is better to drink as much water as possible on board.
The number of passengers was in the single digits, so the waiting time was not that long.
The arrival lobby was Terminal 1.

I am still in Japan, so I don't know about the return flight. If I don't know, I ask Zip Air Customer Service online, but they didn't give me a very good reply about the negative certificate.

It is a low-cost airline, so I don't think I should expect so much.

Thank you for your valuable experience. I am stunned that I am finally going to be quarantined 6 days from Hawaii
I guess I deserve it in case I brought a Corona to my family in Japan. Sure, you can ask questions at customer service. I also have a lot of uncertainties about the inspection when I return, so I will ask them. Thank you for everything. Please take care of yourself for the rest of your stay.

Maruko-san

I was lucky that I was only quarantined at home for 14 days when I entered Japan about 2 months ago.
I thought that the number of infected people in Japan has been decreasing and the situation back home would gradually warm up, but with the appearance of the new Omicron mutant strain, things are getting tougher and tougher. The situation of entering Japan and returning to Hawaii changes every day, so I think it is very difficult for everyone to keep track.
I am also anxious to return to Hawaii safely.

I think you should register My SOS, Contact Confirmation App before you enter Japan, it will save you time as they will check if you have downloaded it properly after PCR inspection.
After that, a staff member explained how to use the app, but I hesitated because the desks next to each other were too close to each other. I think you should be careful during this time. During my stay, I am meeting people I want to meet while I am here. I don't know when I will be able to enter Japan again.
I know that there are people living in Hawaii who have not been able to return to Japan for many years.
Due to the new Omicron strain, it has become more difficult to enter Japan. I hope this new strain will not cause much damage, and I hope we will be able to enter and return to Japan soon as before.

I paste the announcement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on December 16

United States

Arizona, California, Connecticut, Colorado, Texas, New York, Nebraska, Hawaii, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Missouri , Minnesota, Maryland, Louisiana, Washington, D.C.

The above states are the states that will be under mandatory quarantine for 3 days.

So it would be other than these.

Can I watch programs that are a few days old? ？
I'm only using Japanese programs, but for $150 a year, I can watch anything on TV, including 56 Japanese pay channels for up to two weeks before the show.

I pay about $ 25 a month to watch JV Rental, but recently I have been having problems logging in and can't connect at all.
There are not as many programs uploaded daily as there used to be, so if you have any other suggestions, please let me know.

How long will Mr. Corona

＞ ask him about it, and he will suddenly come up with seniors and disabilities.
＞ People who work decently hard work hard to make ends meet with daily ingredients rather than sushi and cake.

I really felt that.
We get protection from the state through taxes collected from working people.
Don't you think we should first use it to buy the minimum amount of food we need to survive? If you are a sane person.

I happened to see a video on YouTube the other day, and I was on the verge of homelessness with my two children before, and I heard about food stamps
from a friend and did some research. However, I had a strange sense of pride, and in the end I managed to get by without assistance.
Looking back, I wish I had received food stamps because I was really struggling. That's what aid is for.
I still feel bad that I put my pride first and made my children live on
cup noodles and water for a few weeks, especially if they have children.
We should be grateful to receive them when we need them and work hard until the day comes when we don't need them.
This video made me proud of the pride that people have in those who are breaking free from receiving benefits forever💪

Lord

I was rude to those who are disabled and unable to work.

I think they deserve support from the government.

I know a person who lives with two adults

and receives support from the government, yet there are people who complain about the food rations

they receive and go to the extent of asking for it

and I just couldn't help but think of that person. I was overlapping with that person.

It would be nice if there were more places where EBT could be used.

Good luck.

Topic.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write to us.

My unemployment insurance benefits ended in September, and after that my income was only for one Social Security.

My job search hasn't been going so well with no contact from anyone, but I'm not going to give up.
If I can find a job, I think I can and should be able to live without assistance with Social Security and my salary, even though I am barely making ends meet as before.

Corona also has no shortage of causes for concern, such as the outbreak of Omicron stock, but I hope that you will take care of yourself and have a safe holiday season.

Thank you very much.

Aki. The purpose of the student visa is not to work in the first place.
It is not okay to have a deposit in a Japanese bank with a Japanese partner and it is income. It is a job online and in the US while residing in the US and Hawaii.
Student visa is not acceptable.
Your friend is already on the immigration list or will be soon. He will not be able to renew his next visa or he will be deported.

Even if you report it, the immigration office will not act on it.

Also, there is a possibility that the person who is working has a family situation and has obtained an
application that allows him to work 20 hours a week, so to say that he is
working illegally based on your own judgment would be an accusation.
You need to be sure that the person is working illegally.
