And if so, where can i find the time tables of such trains (it would be for June 21 and June 22nd)
Thanks and kind regards

Hi there,

Yes, you can use the Shinkansen on both routes using the JR Pass.

For travel times, I recommend learning to plan with Hyperdia this way you can find any route/timetable and more. It's a great tool for planning with the JR Pass. We also have a useful interactive map with all JR lines included.

Hi Daniel San
Thanks a lot for your reply : I went on the Hyperdia website, but i found it hard to figure out which of the trains are eligible among the list displayed in the result of your search...
How can you know ?
Kind regards

Sorry, one last question : I will be using one way tickets on my journey so I'm wondering if the JRPass is worth it ?
My 3 journeys within the first 7 days is :
1. Kansai Airport in Osaka to Kyoto for 3 days
2. Kyoto to Atami for 2 days
3. Atami to Tokyo
I'm not sure that the cost of the JP pass is worth it ? If the difference is minimum, i guess i could still use it the last 2 days in Tokyo on some lines ?

Thanks again

Hi YC,

You would know that the Shinkansen lines are covered, as long as you keep the Nozomi option in Hyperdia UN-selected.

In terms of pricing, this route would be below the cost of a JR Pass, so for now I'd just buy normal rail tickets. A JR Pass would be worth it if you'd return to Osaka after Tokyo.

Hope this helps,
Daniel

Great, thanks a lot for your replies.
I guess I'll just by the single tickets then, since we'll be the leaving the country from Tokyo, and not going back to Osaka
Kind regards
