Will be traveling to Japan for 15 days in July. I had the following questions:

if I purchase my 14 day jr pass now, can I reserve my Shinkansen seats from the US before I travel? If so, how many months ahead of my trip can a reserve the seats?

I will be 6 days in Tokyo, then 4 days in Hiroshima and the 4 days in Nagoya. Will also be taking at least 3 1-day day trips to Kyoto, Nara and Himeji. All of these trips will require Shinkansen tickets, will the Jr Pass cover these trips? If I have to use the nozomi, how much is the extra fee?

Thank you,

Alexis

Hi there,

I'm afraid you can only begin reserving seats once you've activated the exchange order for the JR Pass in Japan. Once you've done so, you can make all of your reservations for the duration of your trip on the same day and not have to worry about finding seats.

The JR Pass will cover those trips, and the Shinkansen tickets. The Nozomi Shinkansen is an express service mainly for commuters, that takes the same route as the Tokaido Shinkansen (included in the pass) with slightly fewer stops. Therefore upgrading is definitely not necessary, but the option is there to upgrade for specific journeys for about 4000-6500 YEN (e.g Tokyo to Shin Osaka is 4960 YEN).

Hope this helps!

Alexis
