The Japanese have always been distinguished by their desire for comfort, but with bus travel, they seem to have managed to simply reach a qualitatively new level. A local resident filmed his trip on a Japanese palace bus from the inside: it is clear in the video that the man got a real compartment. Long journeys on trains and buses are a kind of adventure for many Japanese.

And he specially bought a premium seat he did not yet know what was waiting for him inside. The cost of a trip from Hakata to Tokyo (overnight journey) is $170. Not cheap, but the carrier offers a very high level of comfort. For this money, the man received a completely separate compartment, separated from the common space by a door. Inside there is a comfortable reclining chair. A TV is mounted on the wall, there are sockets and a retractable table: By the way, we have already written in more detail about traveling by Japanese trains.
