Travelling to Fukuoka

ByTravelling Minion October 19, 2025 0 Comments
I am embarking on another trip to Asia, this time I'll be starting in Fukuoka! I'll meet up with a few friends in Beppu and Osaka before heading to Taiwan to connect with more friends! However, due to a favourable rewards redemption, my way there will be a bit roundabout. I'll be flying to Singapore, have a short layover, fly to Taipei for another short layover before finally arriving in Fukuoka....

I am setting out for a trip to Asia today! Ultimately, I will end up in Japan to meet  up with Lebron and Antetokounmpo but before I get there I will spend some time in South East Asia.

It starts with a very quick hop from Vancouver to Seattle to overnight before an early morning flight to LA. I stay...

After leaving the TWA hotel, I make my way back to JFK Terminal 4 which is where Singapore Airlines flies out of. With some time to kill, and being in New York, I figure a visit to Shake Shack is in order. While not wanting to ruin my appetite for the flight I end up snacking on fries before doing a few laps of the terminal to stretch my legs. Typically, I would spend some time in a lounge prior...

After a bit of a sleep in, I get myself ready to check out. Because I don't leave Malaysia until the evening, I arrange with the hotel to hold my bags. This way I can roam the city a bit more freely. After sorting out  everything with the hotel, I head out for some brunch/lunch.
