Popularity Higher Than Ever – Purchasing Bullet Train Tickets in Japan Now Faces Congestion

People who want to exchange their Japan Rail Pass or purchase on the spot train tickets at train ticket offices (Midori-no-madoguchi) are being increasingly affected by heavy congestion and wait times. This issue arises not only at the ticket offices but also at ticket vending machines where the ticketing process can be quite-time consuming also.

Be a savvy traveller and travel stress-free within cities or throughout Japan where you can skip the queues with JTB Australia’s pre-booked train tickets!

JTB Australia can help you book seats before leaving Australia, significantly reducing your waiting time and eliminating heavy congestion at ticket offices in Japan. While using a travel agent may be slightly more costly, without us, be prepared to wait in line for over an hour at ticket offices or approximately two hours during busy periods for purchasing tickets on the spot.
