Travelers planning a trip to Japan before summer can snag more discounted airfares, as both Peach Aviation and Tigerair Taiwan announced on the 5th that they will start selling some budget-friendly tickets on the 6th. Tigerair is clearing seats for travel before March, while Peach Aviation is offering seats for the second quarter of this year, catering to different travel needs during this period.

However, travelers should note that while the tickets may be cheaper, there are quite a few restrictions.
