First class vs. ordinary class

Hi there!

We have a blog post on the green pass that highlights the advantages of the green car, but simply put Green Car offers more space, nicer seats, and less crowded travel.

Whether you decide to purchase a green car pass depends very much on your budget and required comfort! The ordinary cars are also comfortable, so unless you are doing a luxury tour I personally recommend a normal car pass, spending the savings on enjoying Japan while you are there.

Hope this helps!
