Kansai Airport to Kyoto

要点

• The Haruka runs from Kansai Airport to Kyoto Station in about 80 minutes, roughly every 30 minutes. The one-way fare is a little over ¥3,000.
• Discounted Haruka tickets are sold for overseas visitors. The details and prices change from time to time.
• The airport bus takes about 90 minutes to Kyoto Station (Hachijo exit). You stay seated the whole way, but traffic can delay it.
• JR's Kansai Airport Rapid plus a Special Rapid, changing at Osaka Station, takes about 1 hr 50 min and costs about ¥1,900. It gets crowded at commuting hours.
• Late-night arrivals may miss the last Haruka or airport bus. Check last departures against your landing time.

The Haruka. Board at the airport station and stay on until Kyoto, with nothing to work out on the way.
