As an official partner of the Major League Baseball WORLD TOUR, JTB will also offer to fans worldwide, excluding the US,  VIP ticket and hospitality packages to WORLD TOUR events, including the Seoul Series and London Series. Furthermore, JTB can provide tickets to MLB regular season games to fans based in Asia as part of hospitality packages that include travel to and accommodations in the US. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLast year, we experienced a dramatic rise in demand for travel and events around the world as we finally moved beyond most challenges caused by the pandemic, and now we see that the market needs for real and exciting experiences are very strong,\u201d said JTB president and CEO Eijiro Yamakita. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

JTB, a Tokyo-based international operation, opened its New York office 60 years ago. It has focused on overseas travel in Japan while extending its role to become a leading travel agency in Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In recent years, JTB has helped thousands of Japanese baseball fans visit the US and Canada to see Japanese players who star in the MLB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
