Super convenient, after arrival the Kansai airport just heading to the JR office to redeem and you can take Haruka to Osaka station.
Incredibly smooth redemption. No hassle. Direct to your inbox within half an hour. Just head straight to the ticket counter or green machines at your relevant station to redeem. Clear instructions given in English. 10/10 would recommend. This was my first of two passes that I bought from Pelago.
Great pass with best deal purchased at Pelago. This pass benefit a lot ,especially travelling from Osaka to Hakata. I took the Shinkansen from Shin osaka to Hakata is only 2.5hrs and stay for a night ,from Hakata, I can use this pass to go Hiroshima, Okayama, Hemiji, Kobe, Wakayama, Kyoto and even Nara,almost travelling around the Japan west for 7days. This is can book reservation seat without fees ,even Hello kitty shinkansen reservation seat and also visiting the miyajima using the ferry transport is also free but need to pay 100yen of tourists tax. JR line is so convenient to travel round Japan.
Fuss free redemption using qr code and passport at Shin-Osaka station no long queues. Easy to reserve tickets using ticket machines (6 trips) or green office (no limit). Also easy to board non-reserve seats trains including bullet, Nozomi & Mizuho & Hello Kitty Kodama
Super convenient to use. Allows us to travel to many places at a low price. Highly recommended.
Straightforward Process. This ticket has massive value if you will be taking the Shinkansen/Limited Expresses in the region regularly (do the math if you wish to be sure). You can also use this ticket for select local bus and train services, but be careful when doing so as not all are covered.
Hi Pelago team, just wanted to say your platform is incredibly simple and user‑friendly. Purchasing services like the JR Rail Pass was quick and effortless. Great job!
The buying process was seamless using the app. Just show your coupon to the JR representatative and they aill issue you the JR tickets.
