Despite not including express and special express trains like the Shinkansen, this pass provides substantial value by allowing unlimited rides on JR-managed BRT highway buses and offering a Hokkaido Shinkansen Option ticket for those traveling to the northernmost prefecture. Priced at 7,850 yen for adults and 3,920 yen for children, the pass is available for purchase from September 18 to October 16 at major JR stations, JR travel centers, and third-party travel agencies, usable for three consecutive days between October 3 and 18.
