I want to travel to Japan to meet my penpal who is in Kawanishi (near Osaka Itami airport).

I have looked on various web-sites and the cheapest fare I can find is about £400 return.

NB I am in Scotland (near Edinburgh).

Has anyone got any suggestions as to how to get there as cheaply as possible? I was even wondering about getting a job on a cruise ship, but maybe it would take me the rest of my life to get there that way!

Thanks

I want to travel Scotland from Edinburgh for 5 days by car with my friends. What is the best route to get the best of Scotland?
We would be traveling at end of June 2008.
I prefer to include the Loch Ness lake and would be expecting to stay overnight at hostels.
Please also give the name of the cities or places of interests if possible.

Many thanks in advance to everyone
