Reservations with JR Hokuriku Arch pass

Hi there,

Unfortunately, we are unable to check Shinkansen seat availability, but you will be able to do so once you have activated your Hokuriku Arch Pass in Japan. JR ticket offices and machines can assist with this.

You can find details about reserving seats with oversized baggage here.

I hope this helps!

Kind Regards,

Mariko

I have read that if I purchase my Hokuriko Arch pass via JR West reservation site, I can then make seat reservations a month in advance online, for the Shinkansen which runs between Tokyo and Kanazawa. Even though my pass will not yet be activated. Is this true?

Hi,

I would recommend enquiring with JR West directly regarding this, as they are the best source for this information.

Kind Regards,

Mariko
