I will be arriving in Japan at Kansai Airport, Osaka this coming 5th November. My itinerary is as follows :-
Day 1 : Osaka - Tokyo
Day 4 : Tokyo - Osaka
Day 5 : Osaka - Nara - Osaka
Day 6 & 7 : Osaka
Day 8 : Osaka to Kansai Airport
Do I need the JR Pass for this?
Also, since I will be heading straight from Kansai Airport to Tokyo, I will be having all my luggages with me. Does the train have compartments to put the luggages (not hand carried luggage)?
Since the JR Pass doesnt allow me to use the Nozomi train, what is the frequency of the departure of Hikari train from Osaka to Tokyo?
Thanks.
