Will be travelling to Japan on Oct 17

Need help with planning the transport means.

9th Haneda to Osaka

Rough itinerary as follows:
9-14 Osaka:
Planning for Kyoto, Nara, USJ

14-15 Hakone/Fuji
14th noon to check in hotel at Hakone . Hopefully near hakone yumoto (PLEASE ADVICE) Explore Hakone, 1 night stay in Hakone.
15th head to kawaguchiko and explore, end the day at Gotemba then back to collect luggage at Hakone Hotel (please advice if that's a good decision). Head to Shinjuku/Tokyo hotel for the night.

15-20
15th night sleep in in Tokyo.
16th onwards be around Tokyo, might be going Disney.

Need help with the transport route and also travel passes available.

Planning to get 7 day JR pass from 9th-15th. Not sure how to go about with the Fuji Hakone Free Pass, where to buy and also whether it's suitable for the trip.

Hello there,

I would also recommend a 7 day JR Pass from day 9-15th for the best possible coverage.

The value proposition of the Hakone Free Pass is good to excellent if you plan on exploring the Hakone Region. For instance doing the full circle will get you your monies worth. At the same time, if you just stay in one place to enjoy and Onsen and maybe take a bus to Kawaguchiko, then it may not the best option.

Enjoy your trip!
Daniel
