Vol.19 National Travel Support, Still a Great Deal!

The "National Travel Support," which resumed on January 10 of this year, has been in effect for about two months now, and it still seems to be useful for graduation trips and workations, among other things.

The "National Travel Support" program, which started in October last year to stimulate tourism demand, was temporarily ended for stays until December 27, taking into account the risk of infection spread before the busy year-end and New Year period. The "National Travel Support" that started on January 10 has seen a decrease in the discount rates for travel costs and the amount of coupons, but it is still very beneficial. The government has clarified that the program can continue beyond April for prefectures that have remaining allocated budgets, so this is a great opportunity to travel affordably. Now, let's take a look at the details of the National Travel Support. ■ Overview of the National Travel Support (January 10 onwards) Discount rate on travel costs: up to 20% 　　→ For travel packages including transportation: discount up to 5,000 yen per person per night 　　→ For accommodations and other travel packages: discount up to 3,000 yen Coupons available for use in the region 　　→ 2,000 yen per person per night on weekdays, 1,000 yen on holidays 　　　*In principle, these are electronic coupons, so you will need to download an app. With these two forms of support, the maximum subsidy can reach 7,000 yen, making travel very affordable.
