Flights to Asia have dropped as low as $318 round-trip with widespread availability from various U.S. cities. One of the deals we are really excited to see is this amazing round-trip ticket from Philadelphia (PHL) to Tokyo (NRT) for just $396, as first reported by Scott's Cheap Flights. That's not a deal you come across often from the East Coast.

Note that if you are visiting China as a U.S. citizen, you'll have to get a visa. If you've never visited China before, be sure to check out points and miles contributor (and Shanghai resident) Ethan Steinberg's top 8 tips for visiting the country.
