Ticket Scout Japan Information

All tickets are bought directly from fully licensed ticket agents who are members of JATA (社)日本旅行業協会正会員 {Japan Association of Travel Agents} and/or ANTA (社)全国旅行業協会正会員 {All Nippon Travel Agents Association}. We also scout tickets from America, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, and parts of Europe and Asia so we only use licensed ticket agencies from those respective countries as well. Just to clarify, we are not an agent but a ticket scout (finding) service and travel managers. We are on an island just off the coast of Kobe City which you can reach by train and/or bus directly from Kobe Airport, Umeda (Osaka), Namba (Osaka), or Sannomiya (Kobe) stations. We monitor prices, sales, news, etc., and compare to historical data to inform our clients of the best time to buy and how to get the best value for their money. We also can provide reports and articles for Japan travel. Basically we are an information clearinghouse for travel within, to, and from Japan. We do the research so you do not have to! We offer a wide variety of services for our customers. Our basic service is to search for tickets (air, train, bus, etc.) and upon payment we earn a flat commission rate, not percentage base, that way you can rest assured that you are getting the lowest possible ticket price for your itinerary. We pride ourselves for our low prices and ease of service. Happy customers using Kuchi komi (Word of Mouth) is our best possible advertisement! We also offer a full range of other services, both individual and corporate, to serve our clients needs.
