Can I change the owner of the pass before activation?

Dear JRPass Team,

I am planning to travel to Japan in November with my wife but there is a chance that she cannot travel because of her new work. In this case can we change her name to my friend's name who could jump in?
Thank you for your great help in advance.

Best regards,
Zoltán

Hello Zoltán,

JR Passes are personal tickets, names can't be changed.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Hello Daniel-san,

Thank you for your fast reply.
I'm thinking if the JRPass price is increasing, do we need to expect same increase in nomal ticket price?

Kind regards,
Zoltán

Hi Zoltán,

This is not yet announced in detail, so I would not worry about it.

Kind regards,
Daniel
