    In this video we will be taking on a ride in business class on the Queen Beetle. The Queen Beetle is JR Kyushu's sleek new high-speed passenger ferry, with service between Fukuoka, Japan and Busan, South Korea. Designed by renown Japanese industrial designer Eiji Mitooka (designer of "Seven Stars in Kyushu"), this double-decker 83.5 meter trimaran beauty can complete the 210 kilometer voyage in just three hours and 40 minutes. Initially launched in 2020, the pandemic delayed its inaugural voyage until Autumn 2022. This ferry is perfect for all travellers, as it provides fast and convenient transportation between the two countries without the hastle of going through an airport.
    Please Enjoy the Show!

    Just took this today. Started off well but the sea was very rough. Before long there were people vomiting everywhere and some lying on the ground. The bathroom looked like a nightclub bathroom at 3am! I was in business class so I don’t know what state the standard class was in. Will take the plane next time! Great video though 😊

    Loving these boat travel reviews! I don't see that many on other channels but they are my favorite genre, and I love how you take extra care to review all the passenger experiences you can. Can't wait for the special korea episodes!

    Beautiful ferry. How many hours? Greetings from Canada. Also slow down the captions. What day did you go?

    Wow! Quite impressive and thanks for taking us along. Very well documented, was it only you, the crew, and a handful of other passengers? Also, are you based out of Kyushu? I spent time in Kyushu many years ago and videos like this leave me a bit homesick for Japan and I look forward to enjoying more of your travels.

      thank you so much! I am glad you enjoyed my videos. Usually it is just me but sometimes my pregnant wife tags along. I am based out of Tokyo but I do love me some Kyushu. Thanks again!

    Great video, thanks for sharing! Do you mind explaining a bit the embarkation process? Specially the luggage and weighting part?

    • @Albietraveling
      @Albietraveling  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey there! Sure, the embarkation process is very simple. You have to pass through immigration with a passport and some very light security stuff like at and airport, but not nearly as intense. As far as the luggage, there is a upper weight limit but our luggage was never weighed and overall they did not seem too worried about anything like that. There is no “checked luggage” so as far as I can tell, if you can carry it yourself within reason, you can probably take it on board. Hope this helped!

    Which is the better option, traveling by air or traveling by sea, and why is the correct answer "traveling by sea?"

    • @misterlamprey7777
      @misterlamprey7777 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      imo sea travel has better accommodations and views than air travel, but i guess it ultimately depends on if you get airsick/vertigo or seasick lol

      @@misterlamprey7777 now that you mention it, someone susceptible to sea sickness would probably be best advised to avoid the Queen Beetle.

    おお! とても印象的で、私たちを連れて行ってくれてありがとう。 非常によく記録されていますが、それはあなた、乗組員、および他の少数の乗客だけでしたか? また、拠点は九州ですか? ずっと前に九州で過ごしましたが、あなたのビデオを見ると日本が少し懐かしくなります。あなたのビデオをもっと楽しみにしています.

    Me and my friends are planning a trip to Japan and Korea. Is possible to fly into Japan then take a ferry to South Korea? Is there a time limit to how long you can stay in Korea after entering by boat?

    • @Albietraveling
      @Albietraveling  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey there. You can indeed take a ferry from Japan to South Korea (depending on where in Japan you are) and the amount of time you can stay in Korea after entering by boat is the same as entering by plane. Have a nice trip!

    • @tystuff1
      @tystuff1 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Most people typically fly into Tokyo or Osaka. They are a long Shinkansen ride to Fukuoka…. Which is the closest ferry ride to Korea. Be aware that you land in Busan. Busan to Seoul is another ktx train ride. Take a look at a map. Ive just recently did a similar trip over 30 days in both countries.
