HOTEL AVAILABILITY

In anticipation of the surge in visitors to Japan in 2020, we worked hard to secure allotments with local hotels long before others did, which has helped us to provide you with a wide selection of secure and safe-to-book options your clients will love.

• Generally these allotments are valid from 10 July through 23 August, 2020, with minor variations between properties.
• Rates are entered as soon as they are finalised, and can be consulted on the Online Tariff section of our Agent Hub portal
• We highly recommend only proposing services we have allotments for, as many hotels are booked out by officials, teams, etc.
• Allotments are limited to specific room categories (see online tariff for details). All bookings have a 10% non-refundable deposit.

TICKETS FOR 2020

EXO Japan is not able to procure tickets for our guests. Each country has its own official ticket retailer (a list can be found on the official website). We would therefore recommend either you or the guests to procure tickets through the official channels, and for us to then create a customised itinerary based on the dates of the sporting events they managed to get tickets for. This is the same pattern we have followed, with great success, for the upcoming Rugby World Cup.
