Japan Station Posted June 20, 2017 Posted June 20, 2017 Yes, you can use a Suica Card to travel from KIX to Namba on Nankai Line. All major IC cards in Japan are inter-operable between the regions, if you can use ICOCA in Kansai region then you can use Suica. Here is a map where ICOCA can be used in Kansai: https://www.westjr.co.jp/global/en/ticket/icoca-haruka/pdf/icoca_area.pdf Going from KIX to Namba you can take The Airport Express commuter train (44 minutes) and The Rapi:t Airport Express (34-37 minutes). For the commuter train just go through the gates with your Suica card. The fare is 920 yen one way. For The Rapi:t Airport Express you need to buy a reserved seat ticket at the machine or at the counter. The fare is 1130 yen one way.

Mike Posted November 26, 2017 Posted November 26, 2017 Hi Station Master, I am from the Philippines. Last May, we went to Tokyo and we used Suica Cards. We still have the Suica Cards with us, and they still have balances. Next May, we plan to go to Osaka. Can we still use our Suica Cards in Osaka? Thank you. Quote
Japan Station Posted November 26, 2017 Posted November 26, 2017 Hi Mike, Yes, you will be able to use your Suica cards in Osaka. Suica cards are valid for 10 years after last use. IC cards from one region in Japan can be used in other regions as well.
