wilbur Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Hi: I would like to travel from Matsumoto to Nakatsugawa on LTD. EXP. (WIDE VIEW) SHINANO 4. As I will be buying JR East Pass, this http://www.jreast.co.jp/e/eastpass/pamphlet.pdf, seems to imply that I would need to pay extra charges if I use my JR East Pass. Is it better to buy pay the 4290 yen fare search from Hyperdia, or pay extra charges? I could not find how much is this extra charges online. Thank you.

Japan Station Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 JR East Pass doesn't cover Matsumoto to Nakatsugawa. LTD. EXP. (WIDE VIEW) SHINANO costs 3,770 yen for unreserved seat and 4,290 yen for reserved seat and takes 76 minutes. JR CHUO LINE LOCAL for NAKATSUGAWA costs 1,940 yen and takes 149 minutes. Please also note that there are two different JR East Passes now: Tohoku and Nagano, Niigata. http://www.jreast.co.jp/e/eastpass/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
