Railway system in Japan 2015/4/1 03:45
Hey guys,so I have used a website called hyperdia.com,it helps me to find my ride from a place to another place.But the things that make me unable to understand is:
1)is there any daily pass that I can buy ? Daily pass such as I can take unlimited rides around Tokyo city

2)If there is this kind of daily pass,where can I buy it?At the airport?

Ok,next thing is, please just spare a few seconds or minutes to follow this link,

http://www.hyperdia.com/en/cgi/en/search.html?dep_node=MAIHAMA&arv_nod...

this link displays the train that I should take and you will see 'ROUTE 1' that cost 970 yen...

3) what does it mean by 970 yen?It means I just have to pay 970 yen once at Maihama Station,thats all? When I reach other trains station, I just have to use the same ticket from Maihama and board another train station?

Yes, but they tend to be difficult to make pay off. You can see what's available on each city page. Here's Tokyo:

Depends on the particular pass. Usually you can get them at the first train station that you use, which may be the airport. Others are only available at specific stations.

3) what does it mean by 970 yen?It means I just have to pay 970 yen once at Maihama Station,thats all?

Yes, that's the fare if you take JR for the entire trip.

When I reach other trains station, I just have to use the same ticket from Maihama and board another train station?

You'll be able to change trains along the way without leaving the station. Use your ticket again to get out at your destination.
