How the journey works

  1. 1Give the coordinator the hotel name or confirm that you want the park itself.
  2. 2Meet in the arrival hall and depart by the Hanshin Expressway Bay Route.
  3. 3Unload at the hotel or at the park's designated bus area.
  4. 4If going straight to the park, arrange luggage storage at the hotel in advance.

Pickup points and meeting tips

  • The Universal City hotels are close together; give the exact one so that the vehicle stops at the right forecourt.
  • Coaches dropping at the park use the bus area, from which the group walks to the entrance.
  • On the return, agree a precise time and meeting point, since crowds leave the park at closing.
  • Park tickets are not included.
  • Coach drop-off may be separate from the park gates.
  • We need the exact hotel or entry destination.

Practical tips

  • School holidays, weekends and seasonal events mean heavy crowds around the park; leave margin on return transfers.
  • Park tickets and Express Passes are separate from transport and must be bought by the group.

Frequently asked questions

Can we go straight from KIX to the park with our suitcases?

It is possible, but carrying luggage around a theme park is impractical. Drop bags at your hotel first or arrange storage before you arrive.

Does the transfer include park entry?

No. The charter covers transport only; tickets are purchased separately.
