Kanazawa-Kyoto Travel (After mid-March) 2024/2/16 14:11
Doing some reading, I came across that the Kanazawa-Tsuruga Shinkansen extension will be opening right before my trip end of March.

I am planning on doing a round trip from Kyoto to Kanazawa. Right now, it looks like the JR Thunderbird would do that trip directly without transfers in around 2 hours 15 min. Does anyone know what travel times would look like with the extension in place? From what I've gathered, I would need to transfer trains at Tsuruga so not sure if the 2 hour 15 min estimate would change with the faster service but with the transfer time?

Thanks!

Travel time will be reduced by around 20 minutes. Here is the timetable in Japanese:
