Good morning. I am going to Kyushu today but I don’t know when I will be back. Is there any ticket where I don’t have to decide the return date?

Station Staff

So, you’d like to travel but haven’t yet decided the return date? In this case, it might be best for you to buy an open return ticket. You can book the return section of the journey when you know when you are coming back.

Station Staff

It can be used for up to 3 months after purchase. Would you like to buy one?

Conversation 日本語訳

乗客

おはようございます。今日九州に行くんですが、いつ戻るか分かりません。戻る日を決めないでも良い切符はありますか？

駅員

つまり、旅行に行くけれども、戻る日は決まってないということですよね？その場合、往復オープン切符を買うのが、最適かと思います。戻る日が分かった時に、旅程の復路分を予約できます。

乗客

それは良いですね。どのくらい先まで使えるのですか？

駅員

購入後３カ月間使えます。ご購入されますか？

乗客

はい、お願いします。
