“JAL × GUNDAM FLY TO THE FUTURE PROJECT.”
This initiative is part of the “JAL × GUNDAM FLY TO THE FUTURE PROJECT.” The restaurant bus will operate three times a day, connecting the Expo venue at Yumeshima with various locations in central Osaka.
On board the restaurant bus, passengers will be served specially crafted original menus from some of Osaka’s most renowned and hard-to-book restaurants, such as:
The Michelin-starred Japanese restaurant Yuugen in Uehommachi,
The French restaurant Lumière in Shinsaibashi, and
The Japanese restaurant Oryouri Yamada in Nishitenma.
These exclusive menus are tailored to fit the duration of the ride and use seasonal ingredients generously. Guests will enjoy a luxurious culinary experience while taking in the scenic views of Osaka from the bus windows—an elegant way to wrap up their Expo visit.

Additionally, the bonus reservation for entry into the “GUNDAM NEXT FUTURE PAVILION” makes this tour even more valuable, given the high demand for pavilion reservations.
The tour is planned and sold by Nankai International Travel with cooperation from Nankai Electric Railway, and the bus operation will be handled by Kansai Airport Transportation Enterprise.
JAL commented:
“With less than two months remaining until the Expo closes on October 13 and visitor numbers expected to keep growing, we hope to offer guests a comfortable journey back in the evening hours with a spacious onboard atmosphere and a specially curated menu.”
