How to Search for Availability:

• Use ITA Software Matrix Airfare Search and use the following search criteria:
  • Departing from: ORD
  • Outbound Advanced Routing Code: ua nrt /minconnect 2880
    • The 2880 after minconnect is telling ITA to search for a connection of at least 2,880 minutes or 48 hours. If you would like even a longer stopover, increase the time in minutes. We are showing the stopover in Japan first, if you want it the other around, just flip the routing code with ua on the Outbound and ua nrt /minconnect 2880 on the retun.
