Hello! We did this last year for our May trip this year (). The vacation packages can be booked from 6 months out, hotel only is from 5 months out (to the day). I can't remember what time exactly it was, but it was during the night (3am GMT?). However, due to COVID, it looks like they are currently only booking up to a month in advance now.

In terms of tips, I had read beforehand how people have had trouble booking with non-Japanese credit cards. I used my BA Amex and it worked fine - so maybe have a spare card on hand just in case! They take 30,000 yen as deposit, but this is fully refundable up to 14 days before check in.

We'll be patiently waiting for May 2021 reservations too
