Want to save some money on your next Japan trip? 

Japan Airlines (JAL) is currently offering free domestic flights for international tourists at the Land of the Rising Sun.

In a release on their website, the air carrier detailed that their offer is reserved for international travelers only as part of a tourism campaign to encourage visitors to "explore more of Japan."

Through this, you can enjoy a "seamless travel experience" where you can plan your journey with ease and be able to travel to another location within Japan without extra charges.

Filipinos can avail of the offer on Sept. 25.

Since the free domestic flights are complimentary, you can only secure them by booking a JAL international flight and a corresponding domestic flight in the same reservation via its website.

Once you've arrived in the country's capital Tokyo, you can fly to other cities such as Sapporo, Kyoto, Nagoya, and more without any charge.

Take note, however, that separate bookings for domestic flights are not eligible.

Keep in mind that you will need to acquire a Japan visa before you can explore all the wonderful places the country has to offer.

There are two common tourist visas: the single-entry allowing holders to enter Japan once and stay for as long as 90 days, and the multiple entry visa which lets the holder enter the country many times within a specified period for at least 15 to 30 days each stay.

Here's what you need to know about getting a Japan visa to help you prepare for your next travel.
