First time viewer, nice video. Question; if I want to go to Shin Ōsaka station can I do that by bus? Don’t see any times on the timetable chart. Only shows to Ōsaka station. Thank you in advance.
Firstly, thanks! Unfortunately, it seems like they've stopped service to Shin Osaka Station from Kansai. If you're flying in by Osaka Itami Airport, there is 1 service direct to Shin Osaka Station. Though for Kansai, you will need to stop at Osaka Station, then catch a train there or Umeda station to Shin Osaka Station. It will take around 10 to 14mins according to Google. Hope this helps! I tried my best to find you the best route. My advice is to find a nearer hotel, as I assume that's where you're planning to stay. Either way, I think taking the route will not be much of a problem, just handling luggage can be abit tricky. Safe travels!
@@dzilgrayson thank you for the information. I probably will stay in Kyoto then as there is a hotel at the main station that seems moderately priced. Forgot the name. I think it will be easier to take a bus if I have checked baggage.
Hi! Thank you for sharing. Planning a trip soon to Osaka. Did the bus drop you off at NAMBA Train station to get to that your hotel? Also, how was the hotel? I am traveling with a kid so wanted to know if hotel is close to restaurants and the closest train station. Thank you in advance!
No problem! And yea, the stop at Namba OCAT is near train stations but I did not get on any trains after the Bus ride. As the hotel was near, I walked to the hotel from the stop itself. As for the hotel, it's good as it's literally in the Dotonbori area where all the restaurants and shopping areas are. I would say, there's more choices around the area that's even closer to a train station, so do check out others before your trip! Nonetheless, if you get somewhere in Dotonbori area, it has alot to offer. Safe travels!
Thanks alot! For card payments, yes, you can, but on specific time only and depending on the Ticket Window you will be using. Once you're there, look out for the ticket machine with card payment. Do check out this link for better understanding, www.kate.co.jp/en/guide/#guide07 Hope this helps, thanks again!
thanks for this review. Make it easier for me to decide whether to choose train, taxi, or limousine bus. Seems like the cheapest way to travel from kix to namba. But since my hotel is near Spa World, so i have to take 1 stop from jr namba station back to shin imamiya station but that's ok
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment, appreciate it! And yea, I tried to find a better route for you, but that's the best route for this service. Hey, got to save some of those cash for all the shopping and entertainment from Osaka!😬 Have a good one and safe travels!
Thanks for making the video. I saw that you hand over the ticket to the bus conductor, then what happen to the round trip tickets? Are there 2 tickets when you made the purchase? Many thanks in advance!
Planning my trip to Osaka in May 2025. Actually planning to take the airport limo from Namba OCAT to KIX. Is the bus terminal in the basement? Meaning were there stairs?
Hi! Yea, just check in your luggage, and that is all. Any bags, backpacks, or handbags, you can bring it on board yourself, and it does not count as luggage.
You will need to present your mobile voucher and exchange it for a physical ticket at one of the ticketing counters in KIX airport. There's more details in the Klook listing itself 👍
I wonder can I use ICOCA card to purchase the limousine bus ticket? If I purchase the one way ticket from Klook, how can I redeem the ticket from the ticket machine? Thanks in advance.
Hey! Yea, you can use IC cards such as ICOCA for some Kansai Airport bus routes. You will have to check their website to see the full list. As for Klook redemption, ticket machines for it are just outside the arrival hall. Simply scan the QR code on your Klook voucher, and tickets will be issued. When you are there, do look out for signboards showing you where you wanna go so you don't need to worry, it's actually quite easy 👍 Safe travels!
Hi, I'm sorry but I have to correct myself here. So depends on what's your destination, there might be stops in between. For example, if your destination is Herbis Osaka, you will take the 'Osaka Station' Line, and your stop will be the 2nd stop, cause the first stop is Hotel New Hankyu. Some lines do have a few stops, so do check which stop is closest to your destination and go for it. Hope this helps, and do check this link for more info on timetable and stops that they do. www.kate.co.jp/en/timetable/index

Yea, if you purchased round trip tickets, you will get 2 tickets, one for going to and another for coming back. Have a great adventure in Kyoto!
Are the return tiket to Kansai airport open date or have to book specific time and date through the ticket machine when we buy the ticket?
It's valid for 14 days from the date of your first use (From Kansai to your destination) but but Kobe line, it's valid for 30 days
Planning my trip to Osaka in May 2025. Actually planning to take the airport limo from Namba OCAT to KIX. Is the bus terminal in the basement? Meaning were there stairs?
Yes, the bus terminal is in the basement and there's also a lift, easy for luggage. Safe travels!
Hello! Can I bring my check-in luggage and my carry-on and put them in the trunk, and my handbag on board? Or does the handbag count as a luggage?
Hi! Yea, just check in your luggage, and that is all. Any bags, backpacks, or handbags, you can bring it on board yourself, and it does not count as luggage.
Helo Dzil Grayson, If we booking the Limo Bus from klook, do we need exchange ticket or we can go directly to the bus? thankyou :)
You will need to present your mobile voucher and exchange it for a physical ticket at one of the ticketing counters in KIX airport. There's more details in the Klook listing itself 👍
@ thanks bro 🙏

Thank you so much.
Are there stops between KIX to namba or is namba the only stop? If they are more than one stop, how do they announce when you are at namba?
Hi, I'm sorry but I have to correct myself here. So depends on what's your destination, there might be stops in between. For example, if your destination is Herbis Osaka, you will take the 'Osaka Station' Line, and your stop will be the 2nd stop, cause the first stop is Hotel New Hankyu.
