[北海道の春] The Spring of Hokkaido

Well, went to Hokkaido AGAIN! But this time, it's spring, which is totally different from Summer, Autumn, and Winter.

Who can refuse ANA (not that ANA) with total airfare below 4K? Well, maybe next time I can. To fairly compare ANA and JAL, we gave All Nippon Airways another chance. But this time, it's the HKG-HND city-pair (Instead of SZX-HND). There's nothing changed compared to last time. Same old 787 Dreamliner with 3-3-3 configuration; Same old delicious Japanese cuisine (not quite as great as JAL but still much better than most airlines); Same old IFE with tiny low-res screen. If anything was different, I would say the service attitude even got little bit worse. In any sense, choosing JAL would be a better choice!!!

Given the late disembark time, we checked into a hotel close to the airport. Need to mentioned that the Korean style fired chicken chain store was actually quite tasty and some girl promised that she will finish the chicken but not (she left her stomach for smoothie).

The next morning, we took the hotel shuttle bus back to the Haneda airport, but the domestic terminal (Terminal 2 for ANA). It was this time, that the greedy girl had her second smoothie and I had a very wired apple vinegar (simply taste exactly like vinegar but nothing like fruit juice). Flight to Wakkani was operated by ANA's newest fleet of A321 NEO with updated IFE and Wi-Fi service. Apart from distributing earphones during boarding, you can also pick a fruit candy from a basket.

After doing some pilot shits, we landed at Wakkani. It was a tiny airport even with comparisons like Asahikawa and Memanbetsu. But bro, we will visit a even tinier airport later.
