I was glad that I had purchased a prepaid card in advance since Suica and other options couldn't be used in Ishigaki, so I didn't have to pay cash every time! I think using the bus to get around is cost-effective! This time, I was traveling with a two-year-old, so it was great that they napped during the ride and I could carry them when getting off, which saved a lot of time.
石垣はSuicaなどが使用できないので予め買っておいたことで、イチイチお金を支払わなくて良かったです!
バスを駆使し色々周る方は安上がりだと思います!
今回は2歳児を連れての旅行だったので乗車中昼寝し下車時には抱っこというのがほぼ毎回で時短になって良かったです◎
紙ベースののため無くしたら最後…定期入れやカードケースなどに入れておいてさっと出せるようにしたらスムーズだ思います!

I recommend Ishigaki Island because with the East Bus 5-Day Free Pass, you can almost go anywhere you want. Since you can only buy the bus pass with cash, it's great that VELTRA allows credit card payments.
石垣島はこの東バス5日間フリーパスがあれば行きたい所はほぼ行けるのでおすすめです。
バスで買うには現金一択なので、クレカ決済ができるVELTRAはいいですね。
This 5-day pass is used by many tourists. It's quite a good deal.

I purchased an unlimited ride ticket because I needed to transfer to the bus to the airport. However, I was disappointed to find out that it was not valid for one day from the date of purchase, but rather for 24 hours from when I got on the bus, which I didn't know.
帰りのバス用で空港まで行くのり
乗り継ぎが必要だったので、乗り放題券を購入しました。ところが、
購入した日の1日ではなくて、
バスに乗ってからの24時間乗り放題なので
それを知らなかったのでがっかりした。
I think it's more economical to buy a ticket since it costs 550 yen one way from Ishigaki Airport to the city center or the port!
石垣空港から市街地や港までは、片道550円かかるので買った方がお得だと思います!

You show the reservation screen to the driver, who then fills in the expiration date and hands it back to you. It's slightly larger than a credit card, which is convenient and not cumbersome. If you lose it, that's it, so I used a transparent case that makes it easy to show during boarding and alighting. The routes with many tourists are very crowded, so there's no hassle with payment. It's a great deal, and I hope it continues to be available in the future.
予約画面をドライバーさんに見せ有効期限を記入して渡されます。
クレカより少し大きいくらいで、邪魔にならずありがたいです。
なくしたらそれまでなので、乗降時に見せやすい透明ケースに入れて使用しました。
観光客の多い路線はとても混雑しているので、支払の面倒もありません。
とにかくお得な券なので今後も存続してほしいです。
Aside from the airport and Kawahira, the bus frequency on other routes is quite limited, so it's best to check in advance.
空港や川平以外の路線はバス本数がかなり少ないので、事前に確認したほうがよい。

As always, it's convenient to be able to make purchases cashless even at the last minute. There are no urban bank ATMs on Ishigaki Island, so being able to make cashless purchases without withdrawing cash is a great help!
毎度ですが直前でもキャッシュレスで購入できて便利です。
石垣島には都市銀行のATMはなく、現金を引き出すことなくキャッシュレスでの購入は大変助かります!

You can use a credit card at the same price as direct purchase, and you can also earn points, which is a great deal. It's valid for 24 hours from the time of use, so you can make good use of it even for a one-night, two-day stay.

使用開始から24時間有効なので1泊2日でも1枚でかなり利用できます。
Between the city center and Kawahira, there are the usual westbound route and the Akuma Tunnel route, which can be quite complicated, so it's a good idea to use a transfer search app.
市街地⇔川平間は、通常の西回りルートのほか、赤馬トンネルルートもあって割合複雑なので、乗換検索アプリを利用するといいです。

I showed the email I received at the bus terminal counter and expressed my desire for a ticket. After confirming my name, I was able to exchange it for a ticket. If you're planning to make a round trip to a tourist destination that's a bit far away, it's more economical to purchase a ticket, and since there's no payment when you get off the bus, it's a smart way to use the service. I often purchase from this site with a high degree of certainty, and it's very convenient. I will use it again next time.
送られてきたメールをバスターミナルのカウンターで表示しチケットが欲しい旨伝えると名前の確認の後チケットに交換していただけました。

I was satisfied with the convenience of the tickets, but some drivers reacted with "What's this?" when I first showed them the smartphone screen. It seems fine if you exchange it for a paper ticket.
This time, I took the bus to the Yonago Pottery Workshop, but when I found out that I had to wait about three hours for the return bus, I ended up having to take a taxi. What was supposed to be a budget-friendly trip turned into an expensive outing.

The buses in Ishigaki Island are expensive, so the free pass is very convenient and cost-effective. It costs over 1,000 yen just from the airport to Kabira, so if used wisely, you can save quite a bit. It's not limited to a single day but is valid for 24 hours, which gives you more time to use it.
When you show the reservation screen from Veltra, the driver will give you a paper ticket. I realized this free pass existed on my last day and hurried to buy it. There are even better deals for 2,000 yen for five days, so I want to make sure to buy it next time. You can also purchase it directly on the bus, but using Veltra allows you to use coupons and points, and there's no cash exchange, making it convenient.
I regret not noticing it sooner.
石垣島のバスは高いので、フリーパスはとても便利でコスパが良いです。空港からカビラまでだけで1000円以上するので、上手く使えばかなり節約できます。1日区切りではなく24時間なので、使える時間も長いです。
ベルトラの予約画面を見せると、運転手さんが紙のチケットをくれます。私は、このフリーパスがあることを最終日に気づき、急いで買いました。5日間で2000円ともっとお得なものがあるので、次回は忘れずに買いたいです。バスで直接買うこともできますが、ベルトラ経由でクーポンやポイントが使えたり、現金でのやりとりもないので便利です。
もっと早く気付かなかったことを後悔しています。

At the bus stop, show the purchase screen on your smartphone to the staff to receive a pass that can be used for 24 hours from that time. While checking the timetable, consider where to go on the limited number of buses and how to return to your accommodation. If you can get on and off three times, it’s a good deal.
