I have a JR rail pass and am trying to reserve seats on the Tokaido-Sanyo Shinkansen on 9th of April from Hiroshima to Nagoya at 10:03 (as I see when I search on google maps) but when I try and reserve using my JR pass on the JR website it only gives me options on trains changing at Shin-Kobe or another midway station on what I think are local lines (Sakura 554 and Hikari 508).

Is the bullet train full or am I doing something wrong? Or does it not stop at or near Nagoya?

Hi there,

This is correct, you would have a transfer at Shin-Osaka or Shin-Kobe on this route using the JR Pass.

You could use a Nozomi train, but this would require an extra ticket. See the Nozomi Ticket.

Kind regards,
Daniel
