理由

Why data matters here

The organiser runs a seat reservation page for overseas visitors.

Anyone can join as a haneto dancer, and the order of groups for each night is published online.

The official site streams the parade and publishes route maps with passing times.

質問

Four questions, answered straight

When does the clock start?

Not at purchase. Each plan says at checkout whether its days begin when you install it or when it first connects in Japan.

How long does setup take?

About two minutes. We email a QR code; scan it before you fly and forget about it.

What if something goes wrong?

One-for-one replacement, and any unused plan is refunded.

Can I hotspot?

It depends on the plan, and checkout shows it before you pay. Hotspot uses the same data.
