Hyperdia website?
 
Hi, Does anyone know what is going on with the hyperdia.com site? On my computer at home, I am unable to get anything to come up. On my comuputer at work, there is japanese text, but no options are available to do searches? Am I just doing something wrong? Help?

Thanks.

Just pulled up the site from here in Thailand and Japanese only.

Naturally I can't read Japanese, however, the red text does include the figures:

2005 3 8 1500 and then 2005 3 10 1300

I would be happy to bet a fair few bucks that it means the site is down from 1500 hrs 8th to 1300 hrs 10th !!

I should have just tried to be a smartie and told you I could read the site was down, missed a great chance to impress, I must be getting old !

James - Thank you so much. Just another snag in my late travel planning. What's a few more days, right?

Thanks again. I'm just glad it's not gone for good!!

Well, you never know, if I thought you could read it, then I might have tried to convince you to finish my travel planning for me, since the language barrier is another one of those travel planning issues for me!

You've been to Japan?

Hyperdia's site says they are doing maintenance until March 10, 2005, 1:00 pm Japan time.

Hi guys, I have been living in Japan for a good few years and although Hyperdia gives you a good idea of routes, I have found that the times and schedules are often wrong. However, the Japanese public transport sytem is something that is unlike anything you would have witnessed before. Best in the world. No doubts!!
