Prince Frederik and Princess Mary of Denmark's Visit to Japan: March 26-28, 2015
The Royal Court informs today that Frederik and Mary will pay a official visit in Japan from 26-28th March 2015 to lead a Greenland promotional campaign.
I guess this is the Japan visit there was cancelled due to general elections in Greenland, which has been moved forward to March.

The visit will begin tomorrow afternoon - I guess F & M will fly off from Copenhagen during those hours. If they are lucky that a plane with direct connection fit with their program they can fly from Copenhagen to Tokyo in about 10-15 hours.
During the visit the Crown Prince Couple will also meet the Imperial Family. The Crown Prince Couple participate in a lunch with Their Imperial Majesties the Emperor and Empress of Japan, visiting an exhibition opening with Their Imperial Highnesses Princess Takamado and Princess Tsuguko of Takamado and participate in dinner with Their Imperial Highnesses Crown Prince Naruhito and Crown Princess Masako.

 Their official visits where all the events are together are also the best me thinks (;
But first it also was only Frederik who was scheduled to participate in this three days visit promoting Greenland, but pleasantly Mary accompanies Frederik.
