Cheapest flight I found was for $1108 CDN from Edmonton Alberta to Osaka
I plan to get a 7 day JR pass as I think it's the cheapest way to get everywhere i need to go. Feel free to throw any suggestions out there for me. I'm kind of a newbie when it comes to Japan.

Hi, does the 3000 include flight and accomodation? if not, then i say you can probably travel comfortably....
I would suggest spending sometime in yokohama as well, shopping in tokyo is fun and all, but Yokohama really have EVERYTHING, landmark tower and world porter is the place to shop... maybe you can somehow squeeze that in for the 14th...
