      For Tokyo Wide Pass (Regional Pass), the earliest date you can purchase, is only 1 month in advance from the usage day. (Please refer to this links - Usable periods / times) - www.eki-net.com/top/tr/guide/reserve/timein.html

    Hiii,
    I bought mine in Jr east website and I booked the fuji excursion train from shinjuku to Kawaguchiko station. I selected "Car #1" during my reservation and it says i won't have to pay any additional cost. However, based on your video, if i reserved in car #1, I will need to pay for additional cost. I am quite confused. Because the total during my reservation says "OJPY". Can you clarify this?

    • @simplifytravel
      @simplifytravel  6 місяців тому

      The Fuji Excursion train that you has booked is operated by JR East, that run from shinjuku to kawaguchiko station. It is included in the JR Tokyo wide pass. Fuji Excursion Train -www.jreast.co.jp/hachioji/fuji_excursion/en/
      The Car #1 that was mentioned in the video is the Fujisan View Express, that required additional cost. This unique train only run from Otsuki station to Kawaguchiko station. It is operated by private railway operator Fuji Kyuko.
      Here's the links for your reference - www.fujikyu-railway.jp/fujisan-view-express/en/about/
      Hope it helps to clarify better.

    Hi all destinations need to reserve seat before boarding the train? I plan to go Mount Fuji , but the seat is not available, can I take the train without seat?

    • @simplifytravel
      @simplifytravel  Рік тому

      For train that have non-reserved seat, you don't need to reserve. Just have to buy the ticket for your destination and sit in the non-reserved cars.
      Depending on the type of trains you are taking, the JR trains in the Fujikyu lines have both reserved seat and non-reserved seat. If the reserved seat is full, you can take the non-reserved seat. But do note that, if the non-reserved seats are full too, you might need to stand throughout the ride.
      Here's the links to the JR train - e.fujikyu-railway.jp/jr_train/

      @@simplifytravel so the cheapest way to go to kusatsu onsen is by riding Agatsuma Line to Haneo station (covered by Tokyo Wide Pass), then taking bus from haneo station/Okuwamichi to Kusatsu Onsen (680yen)?

    • @simplifytravel
      @simplifytravel  14 днів тому

      Why don't you try traveling from Ueno station to Kusatsu Onsen (if that's your destination), there is a direct train that start from 10am. (Kusatsu‧Shima train)
      The Tokyo wide pass cover the train ride.
      But when you get to the Naganohara-Kusatsuguchi station, the JR bus ride from the station to Kusatsu onsen is not cover. But the fare can be pay by Japan IC card. (around 710 yen)

      @@simplifytravel I watched that video too.. I'm planning to go to Kusatsu Onsen right from Narita Airport. My first plan is to take Narita Express to Tokyo Station (covered by Tokyo Wide Pass, then take Hokuriku Shinkansen to Karuizawa Station. But the bus fare from Karuizawa Station to Kusatsu Onsen is 2240yen, so I'm thinking about going to Haneo station first (since it's still covered by Tokyo Wide Pass). The bus fare from Haneo Station (Okuwamichi) to Kusatsu Onsen is 680yen (checked from google map), hopefully it's correct.. Any advice?

    • @simplifytravel
      @simplifytravel  14 днів тому

      From google, it does have the bus stop, but i can't advice on that since not been there before.
      But if i would, i still prefer the Ueno route, reasons :
      1. After from flight, must be tired, i would prefer less train or bus transfer. Direct route is more preferred.
      2. Don't have to worry if there will be bus at Haneo station, since it is in rural area and might be delay or cancel due to weather situation.
      3. You can take the train from Toyko to Ueno instead of Karuizawa station.
      4. I don't think Hokuriku Shinkansen travel to Haneo station directly, you need to transfer too. - www.jreast.co.jp/multi/en/routemaps/hokurikushinkansen.html
      5. Easier and popular route to take.
      Above is just my thoughts.
