JR East and JR Hokkaido will offer the “Hokkaido & Eastern Japan Pass” during the winter season as well.
This pass allows unlimited boarding and alighting on ordinary and rapid trains, including those of JR East, JR Hokkaido, Aoimori Railway, IGR Iwate Galaxy Railway, and Hokuetsu Express for seven consecutive days. The pass also covers BRT services.
When using Shinkansen or limited express trains, a boarding ticket and a limited express ticket for the section used are required. However, between Shin-Aomori and Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto stations on the Hokkaido Shinkansen, seats in ordinary cars that are not occupied can be used by purchasing a standing limited express ticket, provided that travel is between these two stations. In addition, between Aomori and Shin-Aomori stations on the Ou Main Line, the ordinary cars’ non-reserved seats and all reserved seats on ordinary and rapid trains can be used for travel exclusively within this section. Seats in the ordinary cars that are reserved can be used on the Sekisho Line between Shintoku and Shin-Yubari stations, and on the Muroran Main Line between Higashi-Muroran and Muroran stations, provided travel is within these sections.
The price is 11,330 yen for adults and 5,660 yen for children. The pass is on sale from November 26 to January 4, 2025, and can be used from December 10, 2025, to January 10, 2025.
