I was wondering if I purchased a 7 day pass, does it start from day one you travel on the 1st train leg and you then have the 7 days following to use the pass whether you travel or not or is it based on 7 days of actual train travel?
eg we want to travel every 2nd day on the trains, would a 7 day pass work?
Back to Using the Japan Rail Pass
Are the passes consecutive days or just travel days on the train

Hi there,
The JR Pass is valid for consecutive days only after validation.
I hope this helps!
Kind Regards,
