Question:
How much money would I need to stay two weeks at a 2 or 3 star hotel.... Thanks
Answer:
Depends a LOT on when you are flying, which you didn't say anything about. The high price of oil is making things costly now though.
Try looking at sites like www.kayak.com and www.mobissimo.com for some cheaper fares, as well as looking at some of the airline websites directly, which may have some bargains going.
Just remember that you get what you pay for - the cheap-o tickets often have the most restrictions, like no refund if you must cancel, no chance or high costs to make a date change, and so on. And if you book through one of the online agencies like Expedia, Trouble City, Orbitz etc, pray you don't have to make a change - they just try to foist you onto the airlines where you can waste half an hour on hold just to have them tell you the change must be done through the issuing agency, which is correct. You also might consider getting the Tokyo or Osaka flights to Okinawa and back separately; especially if you plan a stopover in Tokyo or Osaka. You can avoid a stopover charge, and there are special air passes for people not living in Japan. Try looking at

Don't just book them though, compare the difference in fares to make sure.

If you have never stayed in one, then I recommend a Japanese inn (ryokan) for at least a night for the experience. You might want to look at:
