Hello. We are four people travelling to Japan on March 27 2025. We will be going ca Tokyo- Kyoto - islands -Kyoto -Kanazawa -Tokyo in four weeks. We plan to buy JP passes. My question is: do we have to reserve seats beforehand or is it enough to do it on arrival with the help of Greet & Meet?
Thank you, best regards, Sigrun

Hello,
While online seat reservations for JR Passes are not currently available through JRPass.com, you can easily reserve seats after arriving in Japan at any JR Train Station ticket office (Midori-no-madoguchi) or ticket machine.
To place your JR Pass order, please visit our website.
I hope this helps!
Kind Regards,
Mariko
