Chris Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 We will be travelling to Niseko in February and would like to get the train for Chitose Airport to Kutchan station. Not sure of how train travel operates from Chitose - all I know is that we change trains at Otaru which then goes on to Kutchan. Can you pre book reserved seating prior to our arrival? There are 6 of us in the group with snow board bags and am concerned about not being able to get on the train Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japan Station Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Unfortunately, you cannot reserve seats prior to your arrival. Trains on this route run every few hours. You should have no problem reserving seats when you arrive.

Ask at the airport information counter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
