Some bus services have restrictions on the boarding and drop-off locations you can select.
For services marked [Boarding and Drop-off Restrictions Apply], certain boarding or drop-off locations may not be available depending on your travel date.

There are several possible reasons why you may be unable to make a reservation:

・No seats are available.
・On a bus with four seats per row, the only remaining seat may be next to a passenger of a different gender.
・The booking deadline has passed.
→ Please search again. If the same bus service no longer appears in the search results, there are no seats available for booking. Please consider another service.

・The system may be undergoing scheduled maintenance:
　JR Bus: 1:00–5:00 a.m.
　Services with a service code beginning with “Z”: 2:00–5:00 a.m.

・An error may have occurred during the booking process, for example:
　・The 3D Secure authentication code was not processed correctly.
　・Your PayPay balance was insufficient.
　・The payment screen was closed or another action was taken before the payment was completed.
