JR Tokai announced that the number of Tokaido Shinkansen users from the 1st to the 14th of this month reached 44% of the same period last year and is on a recovery trend following last month.

According to JR Tokai, the number of Tokaido Shinkansen users reached 44% of the same period last year from the 1st to the 14th of this month.
The number of users of the Tokaido Shinkansen was 25% in August and 38% in September at the same time last year, and JR Tokai says that the number of users is recovering this month as well.
Shin Kaneko, president of Central Japan Railway Company, said at a press conference on the 15th, "It's been a while since I was a user." There are calls to go on a trip, and the recovery is responsive, and business use is returning. "
On the other hand, President Kaneko said that the earnings forecast for the current fiscal year is still undecided, "I still do not know when a healthy state will come and I can not determine."
