JR West and JR Shikoku to Raise Fares for Rapid Marine Liner and Eliminate Off-Peak Pricing
West Japan Railway Company (JR West) and Shikoku Railway Company (JR Shikoku) will revise the ordinary car reserved seat fees and Green car fees for the Rapid Marine Liner.
The revision will start from October 1. In regular sales at stations, the reserved seat fee will be 840 yen (currently 330 yen during off-peak, 530 yen otherwise), and the Green car fee will be 1,010 yen for distances up to 50 km (currently 780 yen), and 1,260 yen for distances up to 100 km (currently 1,000 yen). This will eliminate the off-peak pricing.
For sales on e5489, the “ticketless limited express ticket” reserved seat fee will be 530 yen (currently 330 yen), with no change to the Green car fee (up to 50 km remains 780 yen, up to 100 km remains 1,000 yen). For J-WEST cardholders, the “e-Kippu” reserved seat fee available exclusively on e5489 will be 450 yen (currently 210 yen), and the Green car fee will be 650 yen (currently 470 yen). The “e-ticketless limited express ticket” reserved seat fee will be 420 yen (currently 210 yen), and the Green car fee will be 630 yen (currently 470 yen).
