Hello all,

I will be activating my 14days JR Pass on 3rd April, and I understand it will expire on 16th April.
I have only been to japan once back in 2017, and I vaguely remember that I booked all my shinkansen train on arrival day at the JR Office.

I would like to know if its possible to book outside of the JR Pass usage.

Thank you

Hi there,

Yes, of course you can buy normal tickets outside your JR Pass dates.

Kind regards,
Daniel
