Looking for Cheapest flight from the US to Osaka Kansai (KIX Airport)?

Question:


My fiance' and I will be flying out of the US to Japan, specifically the Osaka Kansai (KIX) airport and I'm looking for the cheapest way to get there. I'm willing to fly to another aiport in the US first (like O'Hare or Seattle) if that helps keep the cost down. Has anyone made this or a similar flight before? Any recommendations or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Answer:


You don't say anything about where you are starting from, or when you are going - it makes a huge difference. Delta has a non-stop flight from Seattle to KIX, and UA has a non-stop from SFO, but depending on where you're starting from you might not be able to make the connection.
Otherwise, you'll have to go to a bigger city like Chicago and fly by way of Tokyo, or Seoul.
At any rate, if you want to check lower airfares, try sites like

Oil prices are coming down, so if you can wait until after October 1st to have your ticket issued, you can also probably save a few hundred dollars in addition to the cheaper fares after summer.
