Updates for you about changes to the Japan Rail Pass and travelling on the shinkansen, that are now in place from Spring 2020 onwards. There've been some changes to how you buy the JR Pass , how you make seat reservations and oversized baggage on the bullet train. You can also now use a JR Pass with the automatic ticket gates. I'll talk you through what's new, with my recommendations, travel tips and everything you need to know for your next trip to Japan. There's also now a smoking ban in Japan, in most restaurants. I'll show you the signs to look for so you know where smoking's allowed.
