The outbound trips operate every 15 to 30 minutes with up to four buses per trip. The return trips operate approximately every 30 minutes with up to three buses per trip after 1 PM.
The fare is 350 yen, and the travel time is approximately 15 minutes. Reservations are required by time slot and can be made on the “Osaka/Kansai Expo West Gate Shuttle Bus Reservation Site.”
Additionally, the shuttle bus from Sakurajima Station has increased its services from July 1. The first trip now starts at 7:45 AM, and 17 trips have been added between 8 AM and 10 AM. For return trips, 25 services have been added between 7 PM and 9 PM, and operations during the 11 PM hour will depend on the same day’s visitors.
