Details of Japan Travel Expense (202608)

October 4, 2026 Travelogues ~9027 words ~8 min read

Two of us split these costs evenly ("PT" in Notes). Suica's uses are too broad to itemise separately. Brought ¥20,000 cash; a little over ¥5,000 remains.

Notes

  1. In the Notes column, "PT" refers to this expense; the two people split it evenly at the end.
  2. Because Suica is used in a wide range of situations — including but not limited to convenience store payments / buying the ¥3,100 airport shuttle bus ticket / taking the subway — the Suica usage has not been broken down in detail.
  3. I brought ¥20,000 in cash to Japan and have a little over ¥5,000 left.
