Hi. Once you arrive in Osaka, KANSAI THRU PASS is really useful since there are several private railway companies in Kansai area. For example, it is useful to take the Kintetsu line between Namba and Nara, the Hanshin or Hankyu line between Umeda and Kobe.

こんばんは、しばしばさん。I am enjoying my solo trip in Kansai region since 5/21. I have a question for you. Are there any unreserved carts on the Hello Kitty Haruka train onboard? I have a jr pass that says i can ride on Haruka train on the unreserved seat carts. I want to make sure that all Haruka Trains has unreserved seat carts so I can just ride on it whenever i can from osaka to tennoji. Thank you.
Hi! Thank you for the comment. Yes. On the Hello Kitty Haruka, the car numbers 5 and 6 are unreserved cars. You can take Haruka with your ticket. However, it seems that these days some Haruka without Hello Kitty runs, so you might want to ask the station staff whether tha Haruka you are going to take is Hello Kitty Haruka. If you have any other questions, do feel free to comment again.😊
@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan one more question for you. Have you ride on the Wakayama Tetsudo Kishi Line before. I heard that line has some interesting thing along several stops. And this Train Line was saved by a Cat name Tamma. Is it ture? :) Or should i get a wakayama city pass to see the fish bay name Saikazaki and Porto Europe?
@@888FATFAT Yes. The stationmaster of the terminal station is a cat called Tama. Every train on the line is cute. Regrettably, I don't know much about Porto Europe because I have never been there.😊
Thanks for this video !I’m heading to Osaka but thought will just buy the haruka green car ticket upon arrival Is the green card already has a reserved seat on the ticket purchase thks
Yes, it is. The green car tickets are already reserved seats at the time of purchase. You can also choose your preferred seat when purchasing at the ticket counter or from a ticket machine.😊
Thank you for your comment. Both weekdays and holidays HARUKA58 Kansai Airport Station 21:25 → Kyoto 22:42 HARUKA60 Kansai Airport Station 22:16 → Kyoto 23:32 If you have any questions, please feel free to comment again.
Can I take Haruka to Kansai airport from Kyoto station? I will visit Osaka first and go to Kyoto. After visiting Kyoto, I will be flying back to US from Kansai airport. That’s why I wanted to see if I can take Haruka back to Kansai airport. Which train/subway should I take to Kyoto station from Shinsaibashi or Namba?
Yes. You can take Haruka from Kyoto to Kansai Airport. There are several ways to get to Kyoto from Namba. Shinkansen ruclips.net/video/5DHWLDixuS0/видео.html Keihan line ruclips.net/video/TK1WLNsmJxQ/видео.html I hope my videos help.
Thank you for your comment! Neither ICOCA cards nor HARUKA discount tickets can be received from ticket vending machines. Visit a JR Ticket Office to receive your card/ticket. For details, please see the link below. www.westjr.co.jp/global/en/ticket/icoca-haruka/#purchase If you have any other questions, please feel free to comment again!
Thank you Shiba-san for this video! Very helpful as I will be going to Kyoto from Kansai Airport later this year. If we get a round trip ticket, will it just be for Kyoto back to Kansai airport? Or can I go from Osaka station to Kansai airport?
Hi! In that case, it is possible to take a train from Osaka station. However, if you have a special ticket such as a discount ticket issued by a travel agent, that would be an unauthorized use.
I don't understand how it works!!! Once purchased the "ICOCA + Haruka discount coupon", do I to use that discount coupon to purchase Haruka ticket to Kyoto separately?
By purchasing "ICOCA & HARUKA," you can get an ICOCA card and a ticket for HARUKA. See the link below for details. www.westjr.co.jp/global/en/ticket/icoca-haruka/
Hi! Ltd. Express HARUKA will take you from Kyoto Station to Kansai Airport Station. It takes about 90 minutes. HARUKA departs every 30 minutes. You can purchase tickets at Kyoto Station and also online in advance. www.westjr.co.jp/global/en/ticket/overview/ If you have any other questions, feel free to comment again.
Hi thank you for this it's really helpful for me. I want to ask you a question, how much ticket Haruka express one way for non reserve seat from Kansai to Kyoto ?
My pleasure. Kansai Airport Station → Kyoto Station Basic fare 1,910JPY + Non-reserved seat 990JPY = 2,900JPY (Reserved seat 1,520JPY / Green car[first class] 2,290JPY) If you have any other questions, please feel free to comment.
@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan oh reserve seat more cheaper than non reserved seat. I also want to ask about ICOCA & Haruka card. Because I serch in internet if I buy ICOCA & Haruka , I get discount so I only purchase 1800 Yen. That is right? And what different between ICOCA card blue colour and ICOCA card hello Kitty? Thank you
Sorry for my lack of explanation. Kansai Airport Station → Kyoto Station ・Basic fare 1,910JPY + Non-reserved seat 990JPY = 2,900JPY ・Basic fare 1,910JPY + Reserved seat 1,520JPY = 3,430JPY ・Basic fare 1,910JPY + Green car[first class] 2,290JPY) = 4,200JPY ICOCA card blue colour and ICOCA card hello Kitty are the same. See the link below for details about "ICOCA & HARUKA" . www.westjr.co.jp/global/en/ticket/icoca-haruka/
@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan Ok thank you. I'm planning to go to Shiga Prefecture from Kyoto . So can I use ICOCA card? Because shiga also Kansai region thank you
Thank you for your comment. Unfortunately, you are not able to purchase Suika in Osaka since it is sold in Tokyo area. However, ICOCA is available in Osaka and you can buy it easily by using the same automatic ticket machines as ones to get JR HRUKA ticket. The sign that says "ICOCA購入・チャージ IC Card / Charge" is a landmark. ICOCA and Suica are almost the same. Please see the website below for details. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICOCA
HI! Green Car 4,200yen Reserved seat 3,430yen Non-reserved seat 2,900yen In this video I took Green Car (First Class seat). If you have any other questions, please feel free to comment.

If we get a round trip ticket, will it just be for Kyoto back to Kansai airport?
Or can I go from Osaka station to Kansai airport?
Hi! In that case, it is possible to take a train from Osaka station. However, if you have a special ticket such as a discount ticket issued by a travel agent, that would be an unauthorized use.
@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan Thank you!
It's my pleasure.
I don't understand how it works!!! Once purchased the "ICOCA + Haruka discount coupon", do I to use that discount coupon to purchase Haruka ticket to Kyoto separately?
By purchasing "ICOCA & HARUKA," you can get an ICOCA card and a ticket for HARUKA. See the link below for details.

@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan oh reserve seat more cheaper than non reserved seat. I also want to ask about ICOCA & Haruka card. Because I serch in internet if I buy ICOCA & Haruka , I get discount so I only purchase 1800 Yen. That is right? And what different between ICOCA card blue colour and ICOCA card hello Kitty? Thank you
Sorry for my lack of explanation.
Kansai Airport Station → Kyoto Station
・Basic fare 1,910JPY + Non-reserved seat 990JPY = 2,900JPY
・Basic fare 1,910JPY + Reserved seat 1,520JPY = 3,430JPY
・Basic fare 1,910JPY + Green car[first class] 2,290JPY) = 4,200JPY

@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan Ok thank you. I'm planning to go to Shiga Prefecture from Kyoto . So can I use ICOCA card? Because shiga also Kansai region thank you
Yes. You can use ICOCA everywhere in Japan except for some small train companies.😊
Can i buy Suica card and JR haruka ticket with same automatic machine?
Thank you for your comment. Unfortunately, you are not able to purchase Suika in Osaka since it is sold in Tokyo area. However, ICOCA is available in Osaka and you can buy it easily by using the same automatic ticket machines as ones to get JR HRUKA ticket. The sign that says "ICOCA購入・チャージ IC Card / Charge" is a landmark. ICOCA and Suica are almost the same. Please see the website below for details.
