Is it worth it?

Add the normal one-way fares of the rides you plan (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

    1. Buy a ticket for one trip between two stations of the Shinano Railway Line or between two stations of the Kita-Shinano Line, and use it on a Wednesday.
    2. On the day, tap the start button in the ticket, then show the in-use screen to station staff or the crew.
    3. Limited express and other trains that need a surcharge ticket are not included: pay the surcharge separately.
