Travel times vary by train, so this page does not show them. Check them in the JTPass app or Google Maps.

Method: route comparison by the app's fare engine (every station pair within the same-name / transfer station groups), departing 2026-12-01 at 10:00, one adult. Routes are listed from the lowest fare (then fewest transfers).

What you still pay for this trip with a pass you already hold (pass price not included), on the route that costs least with each pass.

Fully covered (¥0)

Partly covered

KANSAI RAILWAY PASS LITE 2DAY PASS, KANSAI RAILWAY PASS LITE 3DAY PASS also covers lines of Keihan, Kintetsu, but their fares are not in the app's data, so routes on those lines were not compared. Riding them may cost less than the amount above.

Please note

Fares and pass prices are for reference only. Actual prices and conditions follow each railway operator's official information. Please check the official information before buying tickets or passes. JTPass is not an official app of any railway operator.

“Unverified” marks values the app has not yet confirmed from official sources (for example, JR fares calculated from Wikipedia operating distances, or ticket fares used where the IC fare has not been collected). Such fares are estimates.

Why values on this page are marked “Unverified”:

  • The JR IC fare has not been collected yet; the ticket fare is used.
  • JR special section fares have not been collected yet; the distance-based fare (operating km) is used.
  • Part of the JR distance comes from a non-official source (Wikipedia).

Line names are shown in Japanese, with the operator's English name in parentheses.
