waimanso Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 (edited) May I know if the Nankai electric railway operates as usual from Kansai airport to namba after the recent Typhoon? I will be traveling to Osaka on 6 Oct. Your advice is much appreciated. Thomas Edited September 7, 2018 by waimanso Typo error Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japan Station Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 At the moment Nankai Airport Express trains are not operating because of damage to the bridge connecting Kansai Airport to mainland. There is no firm estimate when it will be fixed. We expect that other modes of transportation will be available in October. We will post updates about Nankai line when they become available.

waimanso Posted September 7, 2018 Author Share Posted September 7, 2018 Thanks for your prompt reply. As I have already purchased the train tickets from airport to namba. Should I keep it and this can be use for other modes of transportation or ask for a refund? Pls kindly advice thanks. Thomas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japan Station Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 The other modes of transportation are going to be buses and ferries. You will probably need to get a refund for train tickets if trains are not in operation by October 6th. We will be posting updates regarding train service availability.
