The six JR Group companies in Japan will end sales of round-trip tickets and consecutive tickets on March 13, 2026.
This decision follows declining sales due to the spread of IC transit cards and growing use of online booking services. As a result, the “round-trip discount,” which provides a 10% fare reduction on both the outbound and return legs for round trips of 601 kilometers or more each way, will also be discontinued.
Discounted tickets such as student discounts and the Jipangu Club will have their discount conditions revised from March 14, 2026. With a single discount certificate, up to two one-way discounted ordinary tickets can be issued at the same time. For the Jipangu Club, discounted tickets will be available for one-way journeys of 101 kilometers or more.
