Traffic Route to FUKUI:
We recommend that the route to Fukui is better from Kansai International Airport (KIX, http://www.kansai-airport.or.jp/en/index.html), because the approach is shorter than from Narita Airport (NRT) in Japan.
- When you arrived at KIX, you have to go to JR (Japan Railway) Kansai Airport Station (Level 2).
(http://www.kansai-airport.or.jp/en/access/train/index.html) - You can buy railway tickets to Fukui without advance reservation at JR Ticket Office (see PDF file, “station_kansai-airport”). You have to buy a railway ticket (to Fukui, ¥4,650) and 2 limited express tickets for normal seat (one for “Haruka” from KIX to Kyoto, ¥970, and another one for “Thunderbird” from Kyoto to Fukui, ¥1,830).
- Please ask the station staff how is crowded in “Haruka” and “Thunderbird”. If they were crowded, I recommend you buy a railway ticket (to Fukui, ¥4,650) and 2 limited express tickets for reserved seat (one for “Haruka” from KIX to Kyoto, ¥1,490, and another one for “Thunderbird” from Kyoto to Fukui, ¥2,350), because you have to remain standing to Fukui for about 3 and a half hour (about 1 hr from KIX to Kyoto and 2 and a half from Kyoto to Fukui).
- After getting your tickets, you have to go down to No. 4 platform to get on “Haruka” to Kyoto.
- When you arrived at Kyoto station, you have to find No. 0 platform to get on “Thunderbird”.
