We're looking to use JR Pass for the route;
(1) from Hakata to Shin-Osaka
(2) from Shin-Osaka to Tokyo
However, we noticed that "The pass is not valid for “NOZOMI” and “MIZUHO” trains on the Tokaido, Sanyo and Kyushu Shinkansen lines.".
The questions are
- What is Tokaido, Sanyo, and Kyushu Shinkansen lines?
- Does it mean we could not travel with these two types of Shinkansen?
Thank you.
