JR Group to Discontinue Sale of Round-Trip and Consecutive Tickets

The six companies of the JR Group have announced that they will discontinue the sale of round-trip and consecutive tickets by March 2026.

This decision is in response to the decreasing number of tickets sold, driven by the widespread use of transportation IC cards and the expansion of online reservation services. Consequently, the handling of the “round-trip discount,” which offers a 10% discount on both outward and return trips for distances over 601 kilometers, will also be terminated.

Furthermore, changes will be made to the handling of student discounts and certain special plan products. Details will be announced once decided.
