Quick Questions:
1. Japan Rail Pass increased a lot in price and we were wondering if it worth to buy it, or it will be cheaper to buy directly each train ticket.
2. Will Japan Rail Pass grant you fast lanes or any other advantages?
3. Will we have trouble with MC and Visa cards there?
4. Should we have more cash than money on the card?
