Hi there,

A 7-day JR Pass is worth considering if you can cover the route Osaka - Tokyo - Kyoto within the 7-day validity period of the pass. You can use the Hikari Shinkansen between Osaka - Tokyo (more about that here).

Then for going back to Kansai Airport, I recommend using the Haruka Express. It's a direct high speed train from Kyoto to Kansai Airport.

Hope this helps,
Daniel

Thank You, Daniel, :o)
Should I consider the 14 day pass instead?

If I start my pass on March 17 it will only last until the 23nd so I will need to purchase the Haruka Express 1 day right to get back to Kansai Airport for my flight outright?

The Haruka Express can be purchased there right?

Sorry in advance if this is a silly question! Just making sure I understand what you are telling me to do!
