Hi there,

Yes, we still recommend getting an IC card like Suica to cover for any travel not included.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Thank you!
Btw which website can I purchase bus ticket to hakuba ？
Do I need to purchase in advance or purchase at the station?

I don't have a website but do a google search for highway bus Japan and there should be plenty of options.

Seats / Tickets should be purchased ahead of time, though if spaces are free, then you can buy a ticket on departure.

Noted, TQ!
