Why Travelers Should Recheck

The operator’s June 16 notice states that both the schedule and fare structure changed from July 1. The live route page is the correct place to confirm the departure that operates on your travel date, because service patterns can differ by time and day. Do not rely on a pre-July timetable.

The lower fare shown in parentheses on the official route page applies when paying by credit card through highwaybus.com. Travelers who need a seat for a child younger than six must still buy a child ticket, according to the operator.

Traveler Actions

  • Search your exact travel date on the official reservation system rather than copying a generic timetable.
  • Confirm whether your selected bus terminates at Kawaguchiko Station or continues to Fujisan Station.
  • Allow time to find the correct boarding point inside Shibuya Mark City.
  • Save the reservation confirmation and arrive before the stated boarding time.
  • If traveling with a young child who needs a seat, include the child in the booking.
