Kirk here. I’m considering a trip to the U.S. to visit family over the summer vacation. I’m looking into resources on government web pages and am aware of the need to be tested for COVID-19 just before returning. I also understand that I won’t be able to take any connecting flights after my return to Japan. So, I’m guessing that I’ll need to rent a car and drive from Tokyo or from Osaka (which airport I wind up using). If I can fly through Seoul (transit) then I should be able to enter Japan in Fukuoka, but I’m not sure if that’s kosher.
Do any of you have experience and/or words of wisdom regarding such a trip? If you would prefer not respond on Facebook, you can write to me directly at [email protected]. Thanks!
By the way, I will be fully vaccinated by the time I take the trip but that doesn’t seem to have any direct impact on my re-entry or the period of quarantine that will follow.
