JAPAN RAIL PASS

WHAT'S A JAPAN RAIL PASS?
* With the JAPAN RAIL PASS, you can freely board almost any train on Japan Railways Group (JR Group) lines throughout Japan. For modern, convenient sightseeing, JAPAN RAIL PASS is a traveler's best friend.
* A regular roundtrip ticket between Tokyo and Osaka usually costs around 30,000 yen. With a 7-day rail pass, you can make this trip and much more... and for 7 consecutive days!
* The Japan RAIL PASS is not valid for "NOZOMI-JR TOKAI/SANYO" & "MIZUHO-JR SANYO/KYUSHU" Shinkansen trains. If you use a "NOZOMI", you must pay the ordinary fare and the limited express charge, and if in a Green car, the Green car charge.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR JAPAN RAIL PASS?
The Japan Rail Pass is available to:
a) A foreign tourist visiting Japan from abroad under "temporary visitor" entry status.
b) A Japanese national living in a foreign country who is a permanent resident of that country, or who is married to a national of that country.

HOW TO OBTAIN A JAPAN RAIL PASS?
You must purchase a Japan Rail Pass Exchange Order prior to your arrival in Japan. Kintetsu International Express (Canada) Inc. is an authorized sales agent for Japan Railways Group and offers a full selection of rail options.

JAPAN RAIL PASS TYPES AND PRICES
There are two types of JAPAN RAIL PASS: Green (for superior-class Green cars), and Ordinary. Each of these types is available as a 7-day, 14-day, or 21-day PASS.

VALIDITY PERIOD
* The validity period of a JAPAN RAIL PASS is the consecutive 7, 14, or 21 days beginning on the date the PASS is first used.
* Within three months from the date the Exchange Order was issued, you must turn in your Exchange Order to obtain your JAPAN RAIL PASS.

* Once the PASS has a staring date written on it, the date cannot be changed.

The order is refundable if it is returned unused to the place of issue within one year of the date of issue. The amount refunded will be the amount paid less any applicable service charge and communication expenses (usually 15% of the purchase price).
