My friend had ordered our JR passes. On the coupon it has my first name as Tom but my name on Passport is Thomas. Will this be accepted or do I need to worry? I fly to Japan in 2 days.

Hi there,
This shouldn't be a massive issue but please bear in mind that we ask you to include your name as it appear on your passport for identification purposes.
Kind regards,
