Metro All-Line Pass on Yamanote Line? 2019/6/26 19:48
I am wondering if I buy a 1-month Tokyo Metro All-Line Pass, can I use that pass to travel on JR Yamanote Line as well?

Thanks!

No, you can't because they (Yamanote and metro) belong to different companies.

Correct. It valid on Yamanote Line not any other JR Lines but also not valid on Non-metro lines, like Yurikamome or Odakyu...

Valid routes: All Tokyo Metro lines

This "Tokyo Metro" means one subway(mainly underground) rail company name,
NOT metro(commuter railways, generally) in Tokyo,
so this PASS can be used only for 9 own lines, see the rail map,

JR Yamanote line is belonging with JR-EAST, different rail company.
Also basically, in Tokyo and around has many different rail companies.

That pass can NOT be used for another subway company "Toei".

As word,
in Japan nation wide :
Subway = underground rail company

in Tokyo :
Subway = "Tokyo Metro" and Toei, 2 rail companies only.
Metro = a nick of Tokyo Metro, meaning quite different in yr country.
