United and ANA are offering nonstop service to Tokyo starting at just $387 round-trip from Los Angeles (LAX). These prices are even better than what we saw in last week’s sale, which was already one of the best sales we’ve seen to Tokyo. Tickets are issued on United ticket stock, but are not searchable using Google Flights. Instead, you’ll have to use Momondo, which will show you prices from multiple OTAs. Right now, Citi Air Travel is offering the lowest price by about $30 dollars. This deal is valid for departures on many weekdays from September through December, with September and October offering the lowest prices.Airline: United and ANARoute: Los Angeles (LAX) to Tokyo (HND and NRT)Cost: $387+ round-trip in economyDates: September - December 2016Booking Link: MomondoPay With: American Express Premier Rewards Gold, Citi Prestige or Chase Sapphire PreferredHere are some examples of what you can book:Sign up for our daily newsletterEmail addressSign upI would like to subscribe to The Points Guy newsletters and special email promotions.
