Hi,

I am planning a trip that looks like this:

1 Haneda Airport to Tokyo
2 Tokyo - Mt Fuji Trip
3 Tokyo sightseeing, travel from Tokyo to Osaka, stay in Osaka
4 Osaka to Kyoto Day trip
5 Osaka
6 Osaka to Nara Day trip
7 Osaka to Hiroshima and Miyajima Day Trip
8 Osaka to Haneda Airport

For the above inter-city travel, what all routes would not be covered by the 5 Day JR Kansai-Hiroshima Area Pass (which I am planning to use from Day 4 onwards)? Would you suggest I look into buying another regional pass or buy the tickets for Day 3 and Day 8 separately? Thank you for answering! :)

Hi there,

The Osaka-Hiroshima trip will likely be enough to make the Kansai-Hiroshima Pass cost-effective - the only route it won't cover from day 4 onwards would be Osaka to Haneda. However my suggestion would be a 7-day JR Pass activated from day 2 onwards: it'll cover all of your remaining train journeys, and will likely be a more cost-effective option as the trip from Haneda to Tokyo can be purchased separately as it'll be significantly cheaper than the rest of your itinerary trips.

Hope this helps!

Alexis

Thank you! If I get a flight from Kansai Airport, I should be able to cover that trip with the JR pass as well?

Your advise is greatly appreciated. :)
