New Year, New PacSet!

Welcome to a new way to see Japan.

This isn’t a tour. This isn’t a guided, tightly-controlled, tough-as-nails experience. This is a whole new way to see Japan, built to be budget friendly from the ground up. Welcome to the biggest set of changes PacSet has ever made. It’s all for one purpose: to make your trip easier and more customizable than ever before, all while giving you access to knowledgable professionals who live, eat, and breathe trip planning – so you can rest and relax instead of stew and stress.

SpotHolder: Plan waaaaaaaaay ahead.

PacSet pioneered the industry’s first payment plan system for Japan travel. which has helped make a Japan vacation a reality for hundreds of our awesome alums. In 2018, we’re taking things even further!

SpotHolder is a coupon that lets you save your place on any PacSet trip that is more than a year away and doesn’t have a final price yet. You can even use it for trips a full two years in advance. Not only that, but the coupon gets you $50 off your trip deposit too. Learn more on the SpotHolder page.

Get the flight out.

We’ve done away with expensive, inflexible group bookings for most mainline trips. Instead, we’re meeting people at the airport. So no matter where you’re flying from – Minneapolis, Monaco, or Melbourne – you’re supported. Plus now, you’ll be able to get the ticket and seat you want instead of having to worry about which hoops we have to jump through. Want to use your miles? Go for it. Want to fly non-stop? Go for it.

Two years ahead.

The full roster of trips through 2019 is up right now, and from now on, all new trips will be announced two years in advance. How’s that for lead time?
