Hello,
I was looking up specific routes between cities on hyperdia.com and it stated that the rail pass might not work on all routes. It said to check with a train station or your travel agent. So how can I tell if my pass will work where I want to go.
I was looking at 3 different routes-
1. Tokyo to Yudanaka on Feb 25th. I left Tokyo @ 10:24 am and arrived at Yudanaka at 12:54pm
2. Then on Feb 28th Yudanaka to Haneda airport leaving @ 6:20am and arriving at the airport at 9:48am
3. Finally taking the train on March 6th from Sapporo leaving @ 10:55 and arriving in Kyoto @ 4:08pm.
Also, how far ahead of time should I buy the rail pass. I plan to arrive in Japan Feb 24th. And how far ahead of time should I make a reservation on the train? Can I wait until a few days before or should I make them as soon as I know those are the times I want to take.
Thanks for all you help!!
