Is it worth it?
Add the normal one-way fares of the rides you plan within 1 day (from the fare charts at stations or a route planner).
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
- Paper: scratch off the year, month and day. On buses take a numbered ticket (seiriken) when boarding, put it in the fare box when getting off and show the date to the driver. On trams and the Shiromegurin bus just show the date when you get off.
- Digital: hold the QR code to the reader when getting on and off buses and Dentetsu trains; on trams show the ticket screen to the crew when getting off.
- If you ride beyond your zone, pay the fare from the last stop inside the zone.
- Show the pass at Kumamoto Castle and other listed sights for group-rate admission on the day of use.
