Sapporo has a population of 1.9 million and is one of the best places in Japan to visit all year round with its famed fresh seafood, powdery snow, local arts scene, brewery, and many more. Amongst the top 5 experiences in Sapporo include the Koyo or autumn colour viewing in the month of October, especially at the mountains of Daisetsuzan National Park, which is a must-visit to view the colours of autumn. A great month to visit is in the winter season, the most famous Sapporo Snow Festival and skiing in Hokkaido’s world-class ski resorts. As for the summer season, immerse in the romance of the flower fields in Furano-Beiei where Hokkaido becomes extraordinarily colourful with all kinds of blossoms. The Lilac Festival and Yosakoi Soran Festival at Odari Park is where visitors can enjoy music festivals, outdoor tea ceremonies and a stamp rally.

AirAsia X Berhad currently flies from Kuala Lumpur to Japan with 5 times weekly flights to Osaka and daily flights to Tokyo.

Skip the long queue and enjoy a seamless stroll to the boarding gate.

I just flew to Narita from Kuala Lumpur and Haneda to Kuala Lumpur with AirAsiaX and I enjoyed my flights. The AirAsiaX seats are big enough for a big person like me and I slept through my flight. The food is good and always remember to book your email ahead for cheaper rates.

I am looking forward to visit Hokkaido next year and hope to fly with AirAsiaX again. I flew with AirAsiaX twice to Japan from Kuala Lumpur on my own.
