Central Japan Railway and JAL team up

CENTRAL JAPAN RAILWAYS (JR TOKAI) and Japan Airlines have decided to join together in an effort to stimulate visitor demand to Japan.  From 1 July 2009 foreign visitors who buy their air tickets through the JAPANiCAN website can also purchase train tickets for the JR Shinkansen tour to Kyoto or Takayama.  Visitors will travel on the high speed trains known worldwide as bullet trains or shinkansen.  Both companies are looking forward to working together in this venture and hope to show more of the Japanese culture to foreign visitors. www.jal.com www.japanican.com
