Is there anything I should know about using the Ink Visa in restaurants, shops, museums, small hotels, etc? I'm going to try to setup a pin; if anyone knows whether that's possible with Chase, please let me know. But assuming no pin, is it "swipe and print", "tap and print", or...?
Also, is the Tokyo Subway Ticket a superset of the Tokyo Metro 24hr Ticket, in that the former includes metro but also other forms of transportation?
Sharing one iphone between two people sounds like a nightmare (regardless of whether it is technologically feasible). There is an expectation of swiftly moving through the gates, if you are passing the phone back through the gates, flipping to the 'other' Suica etc. sounds like the opposite of that.
Contactless doesn't always work so assume chip+sign
