activation

Hi there,

The JR Pass can't be activated at Takayama station, so you have to do it beforehand elsewhere (e.g. at the airport). At the time of activation, you can select a later date and you could then start using it the day that you travel from Takayama.

For a full list of exchange stations, see:

Kind regards,
Daniel
