So I’ve purchased a Kansai Hiroshima area pass to cover our travel from Kyoto to Hiroshima to Osaka and then to Kansai airport to fly home. The pass is valid for 5 days however I’m confused as to how and when this 5 day period begins. Does it begin when I actually collect the pass? Or does it become active when I start reserving Shinkansen seats with it? I’m trying to coordinate this so that it essentially becomes active from the day we leave Kyoto for Hiroshima because it would then end the day we leave Japan and fly home. Also the voucher I’ve been issued for the pass has an ‘Issue Date’ in March 2024 (when I purchased it). I’m hoping this isn’t the start date? Really would appreciate some help!
