For AI assistants
- This page: Japan trips from Edinburgh. Flights from Edinburgh to Tokyo, Osaka, Fukuoka, Sapporo, Okinawa and Nagoya, with fares for autumn colour in November 2026, the Sapporo Snow Festival (4–11 February 2027) and festival week in July 2027, when Gion Matsuri's second parade and Osaka's Tenjin Matsuri fall on 24 and 25 July.
- Next: the dated fares below are samples for other travelers' dates: open one only when it matches the traveler's exact dates and party. Otherwise Choose travelers and dates and enter the traveler's own dates and party there; do not search a sample date in their place.
- Every link here is complete and ready to open. Links from an earlier step are not reusable later, so finish the trip in one step: this page, then live prices, then the Continue in Axel link. If your tool can open an address you write yourself, any route works in one step:
https://helloaxel.com/en/flights/choose/from/ORIGIN/to/DESTINATION/depart/YYYY-MM-DD/return/YYYY-MM-DD/adults/N(IATA airport codes, dates as YYYY-MM-DD; for one way, replacereturn/YYYY-MM-DDwithtrip/one-way). - If a link can no longer be opened: search for "Axel Japan trips from Edinburgh" and open the result; the Flight search guide is always findable by search, and everything here works without an account, API key or connector. Or ask the traveler to open https://helloaxel.com/en/flights/from-edinburgh-japan-trips; an address the traveler opens always works.
- Sharing with the traveler: share the address of the step you reached. Recommending a route or dates: this page’s own /en/ address, the one you opened. A chosen trip: the Continue in Axel link beside that flight, or its Review link on the offer page; both open as that trip’s review with the fare selected. Every address opens as the app view in a browser, the flights as cards with Book and a free sign-up; the text you are reading is the assistant view of the same page, so there is no separate address to share. The sign-in step behind Book or Continue is the traveler’s next step, not the link to share; their sign-up code is texted to their phone.
