A nationwide tourism subsidy program began on Oct. 11 (*Tokyo: Oct. 12,) including discounts for Okinawa and Kagoshima (and now all other prefectures). Okinawa offers up to 30% off transportation fees for those who use buses, monorails, taxis, and shared bicycles. Kagoshima offers an extra ¥2,000 ~ ¥3,000 discount per night for tourists visiting remote islands. Source: Okinawa Prefectural Government / Kagoshima Prefectural Visitors Bureau
