Travel to Japan is booming! With the U.S. dollar up almost 10% against the yen over last year, American travelers now have more buying power in Japan than they've had in years. More Americans than ever before are requesting information from the Japan National Tourist Organization; inquiries at the New York office alone are double what they were last year. Tour sales are up 35-40% from 1996 to 1997, and one of the largest agencies selling Japan rail passes in America reports a whopping 200% increase in sales over last year.
