Buying w/chair ticket for Shinkansen travel in May
Hi
I am coming to Japan at the end of April and I want to buy a Shinkansen ticket for Hiroshima to Kyoto on May 6. I have been told I can’t buy a train ticket online till one month before travel. Do any of you know of a way I can buy now because I don’t want to run the risk of not being able to travel on that date.
Many thanks.
James

Unfortunately the 30 day rule applies to everyone. Tickets are available from (I think) 01:30am Tokyo time. There’s many trains so if you get in early you should be able to get what you want. As you are travelling from Hiroshima it might be easier than from Tokyo.
