料金を支払うことで優先案内される「ファストパス」が、飲食店で広がっている。行列に並ばず入店できるため、若者や観光客を中心に好評で、専門家は「時間の有効活用を目指す『タイパ』(タイムパフォーマンス)志向に合っている」と分析。美術館など入館までの待ち時間が長い施設にも広がる余地もあると話している。

テーマパークで価格変動チケット広がる 混雑緩和、待ち時間も短く

飲食店向けに導入されたファストパスの一つに、「SuiSui」と呼ばれるサービスがある。運営会社によると、都心部や観光地などの行列ができる飲食店で使われており、9月18日時点で20都道府県の104店舗で採用されている。

利用者は各店舗前に掲示されたQRコードをスマートフォンで読み取り、チケットを事前に購入することで優先的に入店できる。料金は店舗によって異なるが、500~2000円程度で、混雑状況に応じて変動する。

JR東京駅に直結した八重洲地下街にあるラーメン店「豚山」では、2023年12月にサービスを導入。昼食や夕食の時間帯には30分~1時間待ちの行列ができるといい、平日は1日平均で6件ほどの利用があるという。

仕事帰りに友人と500円でファストパスを利用した東京都台東区の会社員竹之内悠将さん(29)は「食べた後の時間を有効に使うため」と話す。行列に並ばずに済むことに魅力を感じ、これまでに10回以上利用した。「時間は取り戻せないが、500円くらいならすぐに取り戻せるかな」と満足そうに語った。

ファストパスは観光地でも。京都市のそば屋「京都鴨蕎麦 田」では24年6月の導入以降、観光客を中心に利用が広がっている。土日祝日には2時間以上の行列ができるといい、カップルが1人4000円を払い利用したことも。同店運営会社の柴田英行代表取締役(45)は「先に食事を済ませ、空いた時間で観光地を回れるので喜ばれているのでは」と話す。

消費者行動などを研究する公益財団法人「流通経済研究所」(東京)の鈴木雄高特任研究員は、タイパ志向が強い若者世代が待ち時間をなくしたいと考え、ファストパスを使っていると指摘。今後は美術館など待ち時間の長い施設にも広がる余地があるとした上で、「認知度が上がれば若者以外にも使う人が出てくるのでは」と語った。

U.S. Department of Transportation significantly relaxes fuel efficiency standards and reconsiders EV promotion measures

On the 28th, the US Department of Transportation announced new standards that significantly relax fuel efficiency standards for automobiles. As part of a review of the Biden administration's electric vehicle initiative, the government will lower fuel efficiency standards for passenger cars and light trucks for the 2031 model year to about 34.9 miles per gallon (about 14.8 kilometers per liter). Additionally, the system for buying and selling credits for excess fuel consumption will be abolished starting with the 2028 model, and vehicle classification will also be reviewed.

Shinki Bus hires a Chinese driver with specific skills and makes his debut on the Himeji Castle Loop Bus

This month, Shinki Bus hired Mr. Xu Kai (42), a male driver of Chinese nationality with a specified skill residence status, and began operating the Himeji Castle Loop Bus departing from Himeji Station. With the aim of resolving the shortage of drivers and maintaining the local transportation network, Mr. Xu drove along the route while making announcements fluently in Japanese. Mr. Xu, a native of Hubei Province, China, joined the company in September last year after completing technical training and commented on Japan's road conditions, saying, ``It's difficult to drive because it's narrow and there are many utility poles.''
