1100km late night bus in Japan Late night bus route between Fukuoka and Tokyo Hakata-go has a total travel
distance of 1100km and a travel time of 14 hours and 40 minutes. The high-speed rail travel time is 5 hours. This is more than 3 times longer.
Perhaps because of the distance, the business class and premium risk class fares are also high. It would be much cheaper to go by plane, so why did you take it??
First of all, there’s a room? There’s one. There’s also a bathroom.
Hakata-go’s competitors aren’t trains or airplanes, but hotels. Haha. It departs around 7 PM and arrives around 9 AM the next day.
So you can save on one day’s accommodation fee.
The idea is to just sleep instead of paying for accommodation. It looks really good. It’s a niche market that makes sense. Haha
