2020 Japan Youth 18 Travel Pass Time-Place of Purchase-User Guide

Japan Youth 18 Travel Pass is very suitable for travel, especially for free travel. After buying a pass, many trains can ride for free. But be careful, don't buy it if your itinerary doesn't match his train number.

What is Youth Link 18+ and how to use it? Youth Link 18 is a limited-time package launched by JR East Japan, which is sold during the spring break, summer vacation and winter vacation of Japanese students. It is in the name of "youth", but it can be bought regardless of age and nationality! The pass price is 12050 yen, including five one-day tickets worth 24 10 yen (can't be purchased separately). As long as you choose five days within the specified time limit, you can use the ticket of that day to take the slow train and express train on JR line indefinitely (please note! The express train cannot be used) and the JR ferry from Hiroshima to Miyajima.

With this ticket, travelers can easily get off and explore more famous corners. For example, Xiatan Station in the first picture is originally a local station where express trains don't stop and only local people will use it. However, when you use the Youth 18 Travel Pass, you can easily get off to visit and collect the beautiful scenery here. Xiatan Station has also become a common protagonist in Youth 18 posters, such as these two posters, one of which reads "Earlier, now I am somewhere in Japan" and the other. They all convey the flavor of youth 18, comfortable travel atmosphere and flexible travel plans.

"On the journey, people will always be 18 years old. 」

Go in spring, summer and winter!

Three secrets of youth 18 travel pass cost-effective!

Travel by moonlight! Changliang, moonlight train, from Tokyo to Gifu as soon as you sleep!

Youth Link 18 can move over a long distance at a super cost-effective price, and the only price is time. If you don't even want to miss the night, you can choose NAGARA, a moonlight train that runs all night.

The train runs between Tokyo and the Great Wall in Gifu. It starts in the evening and arrives the next morning. It can also save accommodation, which can be said to be the ultimate petty bourgeoisie tourism law! Moonlight train time is limited, so everyone should pay attention to the time before departure!

The moonlight train NAGARA also stops at Tokyo, Shinagawa, Yokohama, Odahara, Numazu, Shizuoka, Hamamatsu, Nagoya and Gifu. If you want to travel to Kansai, I suggest you continue to use Youth 18 after getting off at Dayuan, and take the JR train to Osaka or Kyoto within two hours!

Travel notes:

There is no express ticket fee for taking the moonlight train NAGARA with the Youth Travel Pass 18, but because the whole train has designated seats, it is necessary to pay a "seat designated ticket" fee of 520 yen per person (320 yen during the idle period).

Moonlight train NAGARA is a popular train, so it is safer to check the seat situation or make an appointment in advance in official website.

The moonlight train NAGARA is a trans-Japanese train, which is equivalent to using two coupons. It is recommended to continue using it the next day, which will be more cost-effective.

Traveling with Youth Travel Pass 18 is a long-term physical battle, and it is very important to ensure seats. It is suggested that you can not only find the starting tram (the tram from this station), but also deliberately avoid important arterial routes, such as Donghai Road and Yang Shan Road, which have a large number of passengers, and enjoy the train journey slowly. I also recommend that you use the Japanese train transfer website "https://www.jorudan.co.jp/norikae/seishun18.html ジョルダン" to check the route!
