Good day… Can i ask a question? I just recieved a message from my travel agency that my departure area is change to fokouka airport instead in hiroshima. My concern is that the ticket i buy is still the same? No more changes? And when i go to fokouka the ticket that i buy is the one i will be presented to them? Thank you
You should contact your travel agent as soon as possible. If it is a flight booking only, you will have to find your own way from Fukuoka to Hiroshima. Fukuoka is quite far from Hiroshima. Even by train it will take a few hours. If it is part of a tour, it may mean they have changed the itinerary.
