- In March 16, 2024, Hokuriku Shinkansen has been extended to Tsuruga, Fukui Prefecture from Kanzawa, Ishikawa Prefecture.
This time, I rode the extended Hokuriku Shinkansen from Tsuruga to Tokyo in Gran Class, which is the highest class in Shinkansen.
There are 3 types of Hokuriku Shinkanse, "Kagayaki", "Hakutaka", and "Tsurugi" and my train this time was Hakutaka, which is semi-rapid type.
It takes about 4 hours to Tokyo and the ticket for Gran Class costs about 28,000 JPY purchased online in advance.
If you travel with Japan Rail Pass, you need to pay extra for a seat at Gran Class and fee of limited express (so, it might not be reasonable for pass holders).
