- How to travel further with a pass:
- Pass: If you travel further
than the original route, you only pay the fare for the additional
segment of the route at your destination. For example, if you get on
a train at Takanohara with a pass for between Takanohara and Shin-hosono
and get off at Kyoto beyond Shin-hosono, you put your pass and 440 yen
into an exit fare machine at Kyoto and go through a ticket gate
inserting a ticket given by the machine, instead of a 680 yen regular
ticket.If you have a rechargeable IC commuter pass and charge it first, you do not have to pay at the exit.
