KUALA LUMPUR: The Odakyu Group has kicked off the ‘2019 Lunar New Year Campaign’ from Jan 16 to Feb 15, 2019 by offering qualified travellers coupons for use and special goods aboard the Limited Express Romancecar trains.
The coupons worth 500 yen (100JPY = RM3.77) each can be used in Tokyo’s Shinjuku, Hakone, Enoshima and Kamakura districts at designated facilities, a statement from Odakyu Electric Railway Co Ltd said.
The coupons are distributed by Odakyu Sightseeing Service Centers in Shinjuku to each of the customers who purchase the Hakone Kamakura Pass – a 6,500 yen excursion ticket exclusively for inbound tourists.
