Hi Daniel San, can you please tell me whether I can use this regional pass, please.

We are sure to enter the JR Pass 7 days or the regional (Osaka-Tokyo Hokuriku Arch Pass), which is best for our route.

Our itinerary is:
Dia 11-12 Tokyo (arrive Haneda airport)
Dia 13-15-Osaka(hotel in Osaka)
Day 15 Osaka-Kyoto (day pass)
Day 15 night(Kyoto-Tokyo)
Day 16 Tokyo

Now, we are thinking about the regional pass due to the increase in the value of the national JRPass.

My question is:

Is this a great way to go for this basic wheel?
Is there any other regional pass that takes you to the Shinkansen between Tokyo/Osaka/Kyoto?
Which station will we start from to use this regional pass?
How do I give JR a national pass?
I just wanted to see if there was a more cost-effective option.

Thanks in advance!

Hi there,

The only "regional pass" that covers this trip is the Hokuriku Arch Pass and is of good value here, the downside is that it does include extra travel time (as explained on the product page). If this does not suit, then your best option would be normal tickets.

Kind regards,
Daniel
