Method: the app's sample itinerary departs 2026-12-01 (Tue) at 09:00 (not a timetable) and is priced between the stations nearest each spot on the cheapest route of the fare engine's route comparison, or on a route at most ¥30 dearer with fewer transfers or a shorter time (total without a pass). Totals with a pass re-pick, for each pass and each leg, the route that costs the least with that pass (as on the route pages). The recommended plan tries starting each pass on each day and picks the cheapest combination without overlaps (one adult, IC fares).

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”:

  • 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.
