September 2024.Rakuten Travel is holding a super saleThe following is a list of the most common problems with theJalan is holding a special week!I was very happy with the service and the price. The time came to make the most comparisons, including with other travel agencies.
Since we are here,I would like to compare the package rates and special offers sold by each company, using famous hotels in Okinawa Prefecture as an example.The following is a list of the most common problems with the
Table of Contents
Basically, packaged rates are low.
When traveling to Okinawa, you will inevitably book airfare and, for many, a rental car. It is cheaper to book hotel + airfare + rental car as a set (package tour) than to book each separately. Please see the article below for more details.
Booking a trip to Okinawa, package or individual? If price is important, individual reservations targeting sales are the best choice, and if you want to save time and effort, package reservations are the best choice. When benefits and support are taken into consideration, package reservations are by far the most secure. The typhoon support and cancellation procedures are also easy and convenient. Find the best booking method for you!
Comparison conditions
Based on the data that the average timing of travel reservation is said to be 3 months before departure, that the first day of travel is usually Friday or Saturday, and that the 3-day/2-night plan is the most popular based on the "Estimation of Travel Details and Tourism Revenue of Out-of-Prefecture Visitors" of Okinawa Prefecture in 2023, we compare the plan of 3 days/2 nights from Friday during the Rakuten Travel and Jalan sale (September) 3 months after the sale this time. The comparison is based on a 3-day/2-night plan for 2 people starting on a Friday during December 2024, which is 3 months after the current Rakuten Travel and Jalan sales (September).
The plan content is verified as a package trip (set plan) of round-trip airfare + hotel (with breakfast) + rental car with deductible included.
(We do not look into individual reservations because package travel is essentially cheaper than the total cost of individual reservations.)

summary
So I did a price comparison by hotel.
Airfare and hotel rates change from day to day. At the time of this research, there was a difference in prices as shown above. However, depending on the traveler, if you not only look at the price but also take into account the original and unique benefits offered by Shirokuma Tour and JTB, you may actually be able to save more than Rakuten Travel and Jalan, so please refer to them when making your own reservations!
See you then!
