JAL and JR Hokkaido have announced that they will operate the “HOKKAIDOLOVE! Hitomeguri-go,” a sightseeing train that will take passengers on a “one-stop tour” of Hokkaido.

The project includes a variety of ideas to make travel time more enjoyable, such as original in-train announcements designed by the ambassadors and quiz competitions on trains and airplanes.

Under the concept of “One train, one tour. The “JAL Furusato Ambassadors” and “JAL Furusato Ouen-tai” will also join the tour on the day of the tour to liven up the train trip.
The courses will be available from mid-May from Club Tourism, from mid-June from JTB Media Retailing, and from late June from JALPAC.
