JR East to Revise JRE POINT Redemption for Shinkansen e-Tickets from March 14

East Japan Railway Company (JR East) will revise the number of JRE POINTs required for rewards, starting with travel on and after March 14.

The revision applies to Shinkansen e-tickets, which combine a basic fare ticket and limited express ticket, and to conventional line ticketless limited express tickets that cover only the limited express fee. For every 50 kilometers of travel distance, the number of points required for Shinkansen e-tickets will be set in units of 500 points, and for conventional line ticketless limited express tickets in units of 100 points. On some sections, the required number of points will increase. A separate basic fare ticket is required when using JRE POINT reward conventional line ticketless limited express tickets.

JR East will hold a 35% discount campaign for JRE POINT reward Shinkansen e-tickets three times a year, covering all Shinkansen lines within the JR East service area. The offer is limited to a set number of seats available only through the Shinkansen e-ticket service, and Gran Class with drinks and light meals is excluded.

For the first campaign period, reservations open on May 22, and the travel period is from June 22 to July 6. For the second, reservations open on August 25, and the travel period is from September 25 to October 9. For the third, reservations open on December 18, and the travel period is from January 18 to 31, 2027.
