Is it recommended to make a reservation for this express train? We are worried that if our flight is late/delayed that we will miss the train reservation we choose. Do these trains typically fill up?

Hi there,

The Haruka runs frequently and most riders will only use it to get to/from the Airport (very little commuting traffic). There's nearly always free spots in the non-reserved car.

Especially when you are arriving, you should not have to make a reservation until you are at the Kansai Airport train station.

Kind regards,
Daniel
