The Fujikyuko Line is a privately owned train line. IC Cards(Suica, Pasmo, etc), the Japan Rail Pass cannot be used to ride this line. Please pay for your ticket in cash. At Kawaguchiko Station, the last stop on the Fujikyuko Line, there are train and bus ticket windows, restaurants, shops, and coin lockers.

The Fujikyuko Line (which runs from Otsuki to Kawaguchiko, the gateway to Mt. Fuji) is not included in the standard nationwide JR Pass. Because the Fujikyuko Railway is a private company, passengers using a JR Pass must pay a separate fare (approximately 1,170 to 1,700 yen depending on the train type) once they transfer at Otsuki Station. However, there is a notable exception: if you hold a JR TOKYO Wide Pass, the entire Fujikyuko Line is fully covered, including the base fare for local trains. For those using the nationwide JR Pass, you can ride the "Fuji Excursion" limited express train that runs directly from Shinjuku to Kawaguchiko, but you will still be charged for the "non-JR" portion of the track between Otsuki and Kawaguchiko during your journey. In 2026, many travelers find it most convenient to simply tap an IC card (like Suica or Pasmo) for this segment, or purchase a specialized "Mt. Fuji Round Trip Ticket" if they do not have a pass that covers private regional lines.
