My understanding is that weekdays are less crowded than weekends and holidays. Sept. 18 (Mon.) and Sept. 23 (Sat.) are holidays in Japan. Since Sept. 23 is no Saturday this year likely there are people off on Friday, Sept. 22. I will say also avoid Sept. 18 and Sept. 22.

However, last few years media has coined the phrase “Silver Week” (as to Golden Week in May) during this September week, since people can have entire week off by taking three days of vacation. It is possible that Sept. 19, 20, and 21 will be busier than other weekdays.

I will help out little since you are from Raleigh, I did my post doc at NCSU and worked at Research Triangle Park for two years.
