Yes — late-night and early-morning pickups are supported. Taxi bookings from 22:00 to 05:59 add a ¥3,000 late-night / early-morning charge. If flight delays change the actual pickup time, we check the provider rules and explain any cost change clearly.

Yes. English and Japanese — and we handle all Japanese-language communication with drivers and housing providers for you.

Yes — housing-only support: share house ¥18,000, homestay ¥18,000, monthly apartment ¥28,000. Most housing options start from one month, and even if you leave earlier, one month of rent or housing fees is usually the minimum charge.
