  • Product Review and Enhancement of Kansai-Airport Station Sales System for Foreign Visitors
    February 15, 2017 Product Review and Enhancement of Kansai-airport Station Sales System for foreign visitors In the updated Medium-Term Management Plan 2017, the JR West Group has set a target of “a five-fold increase in the number of foreign visitors using our inbound products to Japan.” We are now working in coordination with regional authorities and group companies to capture the inbound tourist market. We are coordinating with regional authorities and group companies to revise existing products and encourage people to visit tourist attractions in a wider area. The Kansai wide area products will include the use of non-JR lines to enable trips to places such as Amanohashidate, one of Japan’s top three scenic spots (closest station: Amanohashidate on the Kyoto Tango Railway) or Kishi (a Wakayama Electric Railway station) famous overseas as well for its station cat, Super Station Master Nitama. In addition, the San’in Main Line section covered by the pass will be expanded so that visitors can enjoy the beautiful scenery of San'in Kaigan Geopark from the train (between Hamasaka and Tottori stations), and it will be possible to use West JR Bus routes, for example between Kyoto Station and Shuzan. The products related with Hiroshima and Yamaguchi will be revised so that Chugoku JR Bus routes can be used, such as services within the city of Hiroshima and between Shin-Yamaguchi and Hagi. Furthermore, in order that inbound visitors arriving at Fukuoka Airport and visit the West Japan area, in addition to products that cover travel from Fukuoka to the Hiroshima/Yamaguchi and Kansai areas, we have expanded our lineup with new products that can be used for travel from Fukuoka to the Okayama area and Takamatsu.
