Joban Line / Chuo Line Limited Express, 300 yen discount on ticketless use From March 3

JR East uses "Ekinet Ticketless Service" at a discount of 300 yen on the Joban Line Limited Express and Chuo Line Limited Express ... Read more

From PORTALFIELD editorial department
In the Chuo Line `` Azusa Limited Express '' and `` Limited Express Kaiji '', unreserved seats were abolished due to the appearance of new models, and a ticketless service was introduced a little in line with that, but the former unrestricted seat express fare It seems that there will be a big impact in the short distance section where the price difference with the reserved seat limited express fare has increased.

On the way back from Okutama to mountain climbing, we arrived at Tachikawa on the Ome line, and when we saw the electric bulletin board in the direction of Shinjuku on the Chuo line, it was almost time for the "Limited Express Azusa" or "Limited Express Kaiji". It ’s not very nice (laughs)

If you are quite tired at such time, you buy an unreserved seat express ticket and canned beer at a ticket vending machine at the home and ride Azusa Nari, but it is often quite crowded, so you need to move a couple of cars and find a seat at last Is also often. (Currently, Azusa and Kaiji are all train reserved seats)

When used in such scenes, this discount will reduce the feeling of overpriced reserved seat express charges and also demonstrate the strength of reserved seats where seats are secured. In the previous example, if you get on the Ome Line at Okutama Station, you can make reservations for tickets without a smartphone, and it seems that the use method will spread.
