Is it worth it?

    Express, seat and Green car charges are usually not included in a pass: leave them out of the fares too unless the pass covers them.

    How to use it

    1. Buy it from a listed travel agency counter (e.g. Kyoto Station visitor counter, Travel Service Center Osaka / Shin-Osaka, TiS) or a partner booking site, with your passport.
    2. Ride the Sanyo Shinkansen (Shin-Osaka–Okayama), limited expresses and local trains in the area for 3 days; reserve ordinary seats as often as you like before boarding.
