Q Can I change to an earlier bus than the one I reserved on the same day? Also, if I can't board the reserved bus, will the reservation be automatically transferred to the next one?

Q I haven't received a completion email for the provisional registration.

A Once you complete the registration, you will be directed to the "Provisional registration completed" screen, and the completion email will be sent immediately. However, if you have not received it, the following reasons may be considered:

• Your email address was incorrect, so please try registering again. Note that the data you entered last time will be automatically deleted two weeks after the provisional registration completion date.
• Your computer or server's virus protection software may be blocking our domain (limousinebus.co.jp) as spam mail. Please check your settings to allow our email to be received, and register again. Note that the data you entered last time will be automatically deleted two weeks after the provisional registration completion date.
• Your cell phone may have a setting that blocks the domain from receiving emails. Please check your settings and make the necessary changes to receive our email, and register again. Note that the data you entered last time will be automatically deleted two weeks after the provisional registration completion date.

Q I received the provisional registration email but I can't complete the final registration.

A If two weeks have passed since the provisional registration was completed and you have not completed the final registration process (details are provided in the "Provisional Registration Completed" email), the data you entered will be automatically deleted, and you will need to register again. Please note that you need to enter a valid email address, and select the email type that corresponds to the device you will be using (PC, smartphone, or cell phone) when you complete the registration process.

Q I cannot make a reservation.

A The period for making a reservation starts one month before the date of your departure, counting back from the same date of the month (or the following day if there is no corresponding date). Reservations can be made by phone until the day before, or through the Limousine Bus Reservation Web until 5 minutes before departure. Please note that depending on the section you wish to use, reservations may be handled by a joint operating company or another website.

Q If I make a reservation on the web, how can I change or cancel it?

A You can change or cancel your reservation on the web by yourself. Please note that changes or cancellations cannot be made by phone. If you have paid by web payment, please change or cancel your reservation by yourself up to 5 minutes before departure. There is a refund fee of 110 yen for cancellations, except for cases where the service is canceled due to our company's circumstances. Please note that refunds cannot be made after 5 minutes past the departure time for any reason.

Q When I changed a reservation that was paid by web payment, the amount was duplicated in my credit card usage report. Was there a double payment?

A If you make changes after payment, our system processes them in the following order: "①Pay for the new ticket after changing the reservation" → "②Delete the old reservation." The credit card usage report may show temporary duplicate payments due to this operation. However, there will be no duplicate charges (double payment) for the same payment. Please note that there may be cases where you are temporarily charged depending on the settlement method of your credit card. For details, please contact your credit card company.

About fares and tickets

Q From what age is a child fare required? Also, I want to have my infant sit on a seat, is a fare necessary?

A The child fare is for elementary school students (6 years and older but under 12 years old. However, even if they are 12 years old, elementary school students are subject to child fares). The fare is half the adult fare (rounding fractions less than 10 yen up to the nearest 10 yen). Children under 6 years old (preschoolers) who do not use a seat are free of charge, but if they use a seat, the child fare will be charged in principle.

Q How do I pay the fare if I want to ride without a reservation and payment in advance?

A Please prepare cash and pay directly to the driver. Please note that payment cannot be made with transportation IC cards, credit cards, or electronic money.

Q How can I receive a receipt?

A Receipts can only be issued when you purchase a ticket or when the driver/attendant receives the fare. If you purchase a ticket on the web, you can issue a receipt on the same site.
