Kansai arrivals
KIX is a train ride from everything: Namba in about 40 minutes, Kyoto in about 80. Easy with live directions, stressful without.
Osaka plus Kyoto plus Nara plus Kobe, stitched by trains, makes data the trip's glue from hour one. 10GB across 15 days runs $13.86 and 20GB across 15 days runs $21.84, the live catalog checked October 22, 2026, sized for exactly this loop.
Scan the emailed QR on home Wi-Fi before flying. After landing: line on, set as data, roaming on for that line only. KDDI covers the airport, the bay crossing and the whole Kansai loop.
The free terminal Wi-Fi is enough to buy on the site, receive the QR and install in arrivals. Counters sell tourist SIMs too, with airport pricing and a post-flight queue attached.
Nankai Rapi:t to Namba, JR Haruka toward Kyoto, buses to Kobe: which wins depends on your hotel, and that is a live-map question. Have data working before you buy the ticket.
Airport Wi-Fi on, then the rescue list: airplane toggle, data line, roaming, restart. The printable card below carries the steps offline, and the chat reaches a human.

Yes, FreeWiFi@KANSAI-AIRPORT, across the terminals, good enough to buy and install an eSIM in arrivals.
Osaka plus Kyoto plus Nara wants a week at minimum; the 15 day buckets fit the classic two-week Kansai and Tokyo combination.
