JR West Sanyo Shinkansen One-Way Ticket (Hakata to Kokura)

Easy travel around Japan with the JR Sanyo Shinkansen

For those looking to explore more of Japan during a short trip, I recommend taking the Shinkansen. The Shinkansen travels from Hakata Station to Kokura Station in about 15 minutes, significantly faster than other forms of public transportation, allowing you to cut down on travel time and see more of the city.

Enjoy a pleasant journey with the JR Sanyo Shinkansen, where you can easily receive your ticket with a QR code and board right away by simply presenting it to the staff!

How to use

1. Please find the "dedicated exchange machine" installed at JR Hakata Station or Kokura Station.
2. Press the start button on the dedicated exchange machine, check the precautions, and scan the QR code on the e-ticket.
3. Please receive the “ Usage Summary Table ” issued at the dedicated exchange machine.
4. After presenting your ticket to the staff at the ticket gate, board a non-reserved seat on the Sanyo Shinkansen (Nozomi, Mizuho, Sakura, Hikari, Kodama).
5. Please submit your ticket to the staff at the ticket gate at the station you got off at.
