Visit Ise by crossing Ise Bay! Using JAL MaaS, we will realize a smart journey where air, sea, and land transportation can be booked with a single smartphone

JAL MaaS has started a new collaboration in Mie Prefecture! We use high-speed boats and taxis to reduce the hassle of transfers and provide smooth transportation between Centrair, TsuNagisamachi and IseJingu (Naiku Shrine and Geku). JAL MaaS is a service that allows you to search for transportation to and from the airport and reserve and purchase ground transportation using your smartphone. Since it is provided on a website rather than an app, there is no need to download anything and anyone can use it easily. Earn miles by purchasing digital tickets for public transport, and also enjoy great local coupons. In this article, we will introduce a new way to travel from Centrair in Mie Prefecture using JAL MaaS!

About JAL MaaS

JAL MaaS is a one-stop service that provides searches for transportation to and from the airport, as well as ground transportation reservations and arrangements.

You can also search for departure and destination routes according to the flight you have booked, as well as regular route searches between two points. You can pre-purchase digital tickets for the public transportation you will be using according to the route search results.

We are selling a lot of great coupons that can be used in local governments, transportation methods, and destinations.

Additionally, many bus operators still only accept cash, so there are some hurdles when traveling by public transportation, such as having trouble handling coins while traveling.

Search for digital tickets that can be used with the JAL MaaS route search function before your trip, quickly purchase them, and use them for a meaningful trip without waiting.

Additionally, you can earn miles by purchasing public transportation tickets from JAL MaaS. Please use JAL MaaS to enjoy smooth travel.

JAL MaaS will now be available in Mie Prefecture!

Mie Prefecture, a prefecture without an airport

Some of you may have felt strange when you heard that JAL MaaS would be introduced in Mie Prefecture. That's no wonder, Mie Prefecture doesn't have an airport!

It takes one and a half to two hours by train from Chubu Centrair International Airport (Centrair) in neighboring Aichi Prefecture to TsuCity the prefectural capital located in the center of Mie Prefecture. However, if you cross Ise Bay on a high-speed boat that connects Centrair and TsuCity ports, you can travel in as little as 45 minutes!

The article below provides a detailed explanation of the high-speed ferry "TsuAirportLine" that connects Centrair and TsuCity.

About JAL MaaS collaboration in Mie Prefecture

Mie Prefecture is easily accessible from Centrair by taking a high-speed boat.

Previously, there was a bus route connecting Nagisamachi (TsuCity), which has a high-speed ferry port, and Ise Jingu, a tourist spot that represents IseJingu Prefecture, but this service will be discontinued as of September 2023. I did.

As a new collaboration with JAL MaaS, on-demand taxi service will supplement the transportation from Nagisamachi Port to IseJingu (Naiku and Geku). This will lead to the provision of convenient routes for airline passengers (including inbound travelers). This is a very convenient means of transportation, especially for those traveling with children, traveling long distances with luggage, and those who find it difficult to go up and down stairs.

② Taxi ticket between TsuNagisamachi and IseJingu Jingu (Naiku / Geku): Operated by Safety Taxi Mie Co., Ltd.
