🚩There is no, non-reserved cars on Nozomi during Golden Week 2024. It will be all reserved seats.
When you travel from Tokyo to Kyoto and Osaka, you might see reserved seats and non-reserved seats. Its common to guarantee seats with a few dollars extra, but there are some merit of using non-reserved seats too. I'd like to see how non-reserved seats (JIYUSEKI) works, and what to know to increase the possility of getting a seat.
Among Shinkansen to north from Tokyo, Kagayaki, Hayabusa, Komachi, Tsubasa are for reservation only.

Thanks for helping make our trip so amazing! If you ever set up a Patreon account or something else, let me know. Until then, heres a Super Thanks 🙌
Thank you so much for the Super Thanks! I don't have Patreon but I've heard of it. But it's me who has to say big thank you. I'm glad you both had a great time in Japan! Thank you again. :)
Appreciate this new Japan train video I’m getting on this one for sure when I get here!! 🤩🤩🤩
I rode the Hello Kitty Shinkansen! It’s so cute. Thanks for this information. I was scared to ride with non reserved seat but maybe it’s not that bad
Oh you did! Thank you for letting me know. : ) Yes, if you are traveling on not busy season, it's a good choice that you can just pop up to the station and take any trains. I understand it's scary especially if you take from the middle stops.
That was a very thorough video. Thank you!
Thank you so much for watching and leaving a message!
Thanks Kenchan, helpful for different types of travellers and tourists! :)
Thank you so much for watching Ryuga san! Yes, busy season on non-reserved seats can be a bit stressful. It's not for everyone and reserved seats can be cheaper with EX advance discount. But I also found it great to have flexibility on the time and seats. : )
Fun and more fun with delicious food and drinks!! 🤤🤤🤤
thank you so so much for making this video I'm coming to japan next week and plan to use my jr pass
Thank you for watching. It's great to have flexibility with the JR pass. I wish you the best time in Japan. :)
Hi kenchan I’ve been watching your videos sugoi!!!! Thank you
Thank you so much for leaving a comment today! I really appreciate it. : )
Excellent information and presentation. I wonder about trying this from Nagoya to Tokyo on a weekday evening. Will all seats be taken?
Thank you. From Nagoya on weekday evening, it might be a little challenging. But there might be a little chance if someone get off at Nagoya. I think it's better to check Hikari too.
Hi Kengo san, thank you for the tips. I think its really better to start riding at Tokyo station. We once tried riding in Ueno for a different shinkansen, i think its the second stop from Tokyo station, non reserve was already full. But the nice lady inside the train found us a seat 😎👍
By the way, im just curious, what if you want to travel with Kenny? Can he ride the shinkansen? 🚄
Thank you for watching Bryan san. Yes, especially trains to north is not frequent, so better to use Tokyo statoin. But I'm you could find seats from Ueno. Yes, Kenny can get on Shinkansen in a cage, but he doesn't like to be in the cage so he make sounds. ^^; It's always difficult to travel with him on train, so I end up sing a car. 😄
Thank you very much for the explanations. I just had a question, if we buy a ticket with a reserved seat, can we also take another train just like if we hadn't reserved a seat? (in case for example we arrive late at the train station)
Thank you for watching. It depends on the ticket type. If you purchase ticket with regular price at the station or purchsed regular price online without discount, you can get on any non-reserved car within the same day.
Hi kenchan san. Base on your experience if i travel from tokyo to kyoto in Saturday of mid November the unreserved seats crowded or not.? Btw thank you for your vedeo.
Hello, there might be families going different places on Saturdays, but you can get seat for sure if you are taking Shinkansen from Tokyo station. If there is a long line already, you might want to wait at the platform for the next train. It runs every 10 min. or so to Kyoto. I wish you good luck. :)
Hi Kengo san, when is busy period and busy timing to avoid not having a seat in the non reserved section?
Hello, there is no clear data, but the time I had to stand from Kyoto was January 3 or 4 on new year days. Long holidays like Golden week, Obon around Aug.13 and end of the year can be busy. But they get rid of non-reserved cars during busy holidays recently anyway.
Thank you for this informative video.
Based on your experiences, is it will be super crowded on Saturday evening in November?? (from Shin-Osaka Station to Tokyo Station)
I don't think it will be that busy. No matter how busy it is, you can get seats if you are taking from Shin-Osaka. You might want to make sure to take Shinkansen starts from Shin-Osaka.
@@tokyokenchan Initially I planned to use the VIP Liner Bus Osaka-Tokyo. But the bus ticket price on Saturday (price in Klook apps) is quite close to the price of Shinkansen tickets (ShinOsaka-Tokyo), and after seeing this video, I started to consider using the Shinkansen (non-reserved seat).😁
Hi Kenchan!
Hi Lilly san! Thank you for finding so quickly!
🚆🚆🚆🚆🚆🚆🚆
I have barely even explored my own country. I wish we had bullet trains in the United States. In a few yearsI will be able to say I have seen more of Japan than I have of the US!
I hope you get to explore all over Japan! I couldn't see during live stream but I saw that you brought dogs to Japan? That is amazing!
@@tokyokenchan I think that was somebody else 😅 My doggies stay home.
@Omni0404 Oh I thought it was you I was seeing on live. So sorry! 😅
Why if we buy non reserve seat but that car full ? Can we go to reserve seat car. ?
In that case, you have to stand or wait for the next train. You cannot go to reserved seat car.
@@tokyokenchan better buy reserved seat in the busy season.
