Strongly need your advice for my first trip to Japan momiji 2026

Strongly need your advice for my first trip to Japan momiji 2026

Hello, my wife and I will be staying for 15 days, and this is my itinerary built with Claude's help,

Flight from SG to KIX

1. Osaka 18 - 19 Nov (2 Night)
2. Kyoto 20 - 24 Nov (5 Night)
3. Hakone 25 Nov (1 Night)
4. Tokyo 26 Nov - 2 Dec (7 Night) [incl. Kamakura - Enoshima Daytrip Nov 30]

Return from Tokyo to SG

I saw an article on https://www.japanhighlights.com/japan/plan-fall-foliage-trip that this year will be late same as 2025,

So are my dates still suitable for catching the momiji? and if I change my dates to late Nov - mid Dec, the flight cost increase from 700SGD per pax to 900 per pax with Scoot no baggage included.

Is my itinerary good enough? are my dates still suitable for momiji? is the flight price is too expensive? I keep repeating this question in my mind.
Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated as now I am very doubtful to lock the dates for my trip 🙏
