A luxurious ride

The Hinotori line commenced commercial operation on the 14th March 2020 as luxurious line. So we decided to give it a try. The train runs between Nagoya and Osaka, stopping at Namba station.

We managed to get the premium seats located in the first carriage. The seats were just like first class seats on an airplane.

 The train provides complimentary locker services.

Someone is feeling pampered.

We bought an eki bento for our two-hour ride and it was rather filling. I spent the rest of the time enjoying the view of the countryside and taking short naps. I felt pampered and spoilt as the seats were extremely comfortable. The ticket is cheaper than a shinkasen but not as fast. It is definitely worth a try though. More on our trip later.
