(CNN) — If you've ever wanted to travel between Japan and South Korea, there's no better time than now -- air fares are as low as $8.38.
As a trade spat between the two countries drags on, travel between them is dropping -- and so are flight prices.
Last month, Japan officially removed South Korea from its list of preferred trading partners.
In response, South Korea did the same, and ended a military sharing agreement with Japan that was signed in 2016.
Earlier in August, South Korean President Moon Jae-in said the country was "a victim of great suffering from Japanese imperialism" in a statement on the conflict.
