China’s “travel restraint” policy. JR Central President Shunsuke Niwa commented on its impact on the Tokaido Shinkansen during today’s press conference.

“We don’t anticipate significant impact, but we will continue to monitor the situation closely going forward.”

Inbound travelers account for about 10% of Tokaido Shinkansen revenue, and among these, the proportion of passengers from China is not large, so no major impact has been observed at this point.

Regarding group companies operating hotels, buses, and other businesses, they also stated there is “no significant impact at present” and that they “want to monitor future developments.”

Tokaido Shinkansen

The Tokaido Shinkansen is a high-speed railway line in Japan, connecting Tokyo and Osaka. Inaugurated in 1964 just before the Tokyo Olympics, it was the world’s first bullet train and symbolized Japan’s post-war technological recovery and modernization. It remains one of the world’s busiest and most famous high-speed rail lines.
