| Description |
Eager to add more yen to your Pasmo or Suica card? Get ready to hunt for a machine like this. If you think "cash value on a TAP card in L.A." or "cash value on a Clipper card in S.F." -- or, for that matter, cash value on most any other IC card offered by other transit agencies worldwide -- you'll have grokked the essentials of how Suica and Pasmo work. Suica and Pasmo are offered by separate companies, but are pretty much interchangeable, although Suica covers a wider range of services outside of Tokyo. One important note: you tap the card on the way into the station, _and_ on the way out, at least if paying cash as you go for your travels, as I did. My Tokyo Free Guide said the card's functionality can be put on a smartphone, too. You'll have to ask a native how; I was in Japan for five days, and just wanted to travel without getting arrested for fare evasion. Suica may be a slighter better deal for the tourist journeying in from Narita Airport, as it can be had in a package deal with a round trip ticket on the Narita N'EX express train. More about N'EX in another photo caption. 1,000 yen is about ten bucks. I'll betcha I grabbed this shot after reloading my Suica, so had a little over $30 left after feeding in those yen notes. Online scribes insist that Suica and Pasmo can double as charge cards at local retailers. They must know something I don't. I tried, failed, and used my Suica only on the rails thereafter. |
