Hello!

Im from Singapore and Im trying to get tickets online for the shinkansen from Tokyo to Osaka, right after I reach Narita airport. I want to get 3 tickets to and from Osaka and Tokyo.

I will reach Tokyo on the 30 Dec 2018 about 11am. I plan to go to Osaka on the same day and return back to Tokyo on the 2 Jan 2019.

I know the tickets can be brought in Tokyo but it has to be a day or so in advance, right?

I have already brought the air tickets and booked the hotels. Plus, I will be there during the peak period. So I have to buy the tickets online/outside of Japan. Where could I buy them?

Also, would a domestic flight or overnight bus be a better option?

Thank you for the help!

Hi there,

We don't sell normal train tickets online at www.jrpass.com, we sell the Japan Rail Pass, along with other tourism passes for Japan. I'm afraid I can't help you with buying normal tickets but a 7-day Japan Rail Pass might be worth considering here, it functions as your tickets all across Japan and a 7 day Japan Rail Pass costs about the same as a normal return ticket Tokyo - Kyoto using the Shinkansen.

Hope this helps,
Daniel
