TOKYO, Nov. 6, 2017 /Kyodo JBN-AsiaNet/ --

Central Japan Railway Company (JR Central) and West Japan Railway Company (JR West) have released a new free smartphone app, the Tokaido Sanyo Shinkansen Reservation App, through which users may purchase tickets for the Tokaido Sanyo bullet train line, Japan's main artery connecting Tokyo, Mt. Fuji, Nagoya, Kyoto, Osaka, Hiroshima, Hakata and other destinations.

For travelers and businesspeople visiting Japan, the Shinkansen offers high speed and convenience. Trains run frequently and on time. Seating is readily available, and travel is comfortable, safe and enjoyable. The Shinkansen is an efficient and reliable choice for long distances as well as short day trips.
 
Of course, Shinkansen tickets may be purchased at station ticket offices in Japan. But this new app makes it easy and simple to book and buy tickets from countries outside Japan. Moreover, you may change your booking as many times as you like without any additional charge. This app is a must-have for anyone doing business or traveling in Japan.
*Service available in English.
