I found out about the New Sanno Hotel after my post here. My plan is to stay about a week in Tokyo (at the New Sanno if available) before flying out to Singapore. Haven't been in Tokyo for a few years so would like to sightsee a bit.   Tom DeMicke Senior Member Username: Typhoontom Post Number: 1043 Registered: 03-2005 Posted From: 211.121.74.184 Posted on Monday, June 07, 2010 - 07:34 am:    Larry: Very good point. 98% of Yokota's departures are launched very early in the morning with showtimes way before a train can get you to Fussa, so the option of Hardy Barracks or the New Sanno Hotel are okay up until the day before departure. For retirees it's even worse because they have to get stamped out at immigration as well. Kanto is usually available, even in the summer and I've only been bumped out of my room once and was right back in it at the 6:00pm roll call.   Larry W.

Both would require a trip into downtown Tokyo, by train or the low-cost military bus. And they're both more expensive than the Kanto, but less expensive than local Jap hotels. The real fly in the ointment is if you have an early showtime at the terminal; hard to get back to Yokota in time.   Tom DeMicke Senior Member Username: Typhoontom Post Number: 1041 Registered: 03-2005 Posted From: 211.121.74.184 Posted on Sunday, June 06, 2010 - 06:07 am:    Yokota lodging will only allow you to reserve a room 3 days in advance for up to 3 days at a time.   Carole G Advanced Member Username: Greengal Post Number: 219 Registered: 01-2010 Posted From: 68.205.151.181 Posted on Friday, June 04, 2010 - 02:56 am:    You may be able to schedule lodging now at Yokota, if you call. If none is available, at least you would know ahead of time.   S Anderson New member Username: Ansl1 Post Number: 1 Registered: 01-2004 Posted From: 67.142.130.29 Posted on Friday, June 04, 2010 - 02:52 am:    Hi, I am a military spouse and will be traveling by Space A to Yokota with my child in late June. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to stay if we cannot get lodging on base? Has anyone tried successfully to get lodging in Yokota in late June?
