Standing tickets on Hayabusa guaranteed? 2016/12/23 06:33
Hello,

I want to reach Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto on Dec 30th by Hayabusa train.

I have a reserved seat on a train up to Shin Aomori that I have booked online via JR East. All the trains were full so I wanted to be sure to get at least to Shin-Aomori.

From Shin-Aomori I want to get the following train that goes through to Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto. As it looks, most trains will be full but I cannot know precisely because you cannot book this segment from abroad.

So I will have to try to get a standing ticket when I arrive in Japan on the 29th. I was wondering: do these standing tickets sell out ? Am I guaranteed one?

Kind regards,

Moritz

I do not see that "most trains will be full".

When you arrive, why not just book the next segment like normal. If there is space, you get a ticket. I doubt there is a 'guarantee" that anyone would give you.
