Me n my husband are travelling on airasia to tokyo on 30 May 2012. Due to Our late arrival on 11.30pm. I don't think we are able to take the last train to shinjuku, hence we r Looking for a couple or small family (max 6 pple ) to share a 8 seater taxi from Haneda to shinjuku area. Price quoted is yen 10 000. We dont mind share it equally. Thx
Haneda Airport is an airport with an international airline and a domestic flight, is located in Tokyo-to as a gate way to Japan.[Back to Tokyo-to]
The airport limousine bus is one of the cheapest and comfortable ways of getting from the airport to various parts of Tokyo, especially the hotels. There is good efficiency and they even have a website in English for you to plan before (see below). Still it will cost you an average of about US$30 for a single trip, but this is what you should expect when visiting Japan because the standard of living here is very high.
The best and cheapest way to fet around Tokyo is to take the Tokyo sub-way system. The sub-way system in Tokyo is very complicated so you have to be very careful to find your way around, especially at the Shinjuku station which is really huge with many different lines. However, there are signages in English which will provide some help. If you are at Tokyo sub-way station, do admire the beautiful architecture of this historical station as shown in the photos. Please also check out the website below which may be of some help to you.
Yes, good app, but...The problem with these applications is that they use data to stream info to your phone. The roaming charge in Japan for data is about $28/MB. You can easily run up a $250+ bill for data that you won't even know about until a month after you are back home.If you don't have a local phone, it's just as easy to save the train maps to your phone as a PDF. It's free, and it works.http://www.jreast.co.jp/e/info/map_a4ol.pdfhttp://www.tokyometro.jp/global/en/service/pdf/routemap_en.pdfIn the past I have used Google maps to zoom in on part of a town, around a specific train station for instance, and saved a copy of that map as a PDF, and transferred it to my phone using an app like "Air Sharing". I have found this to be much better than any map app available as I can customize the exact information I need to fit my needs. If for some reason I need info that I haven't covered...
PROBABLY THE FASTEST TRAIN FROM NARITA AIRPORT THE THE CITY OF TOKYO...!!!!!N'EX takes just 53 minutes to cover the distance between Tokyo Station and Narita Airport.N'EX offers direct service to the airport from variety of major stations in Tokyo Metropolitan areas such as Omiya, Ikebukuro, Shinjuku, Yokohama and Ofuna. This is quickly accomplished by combining and dividing trains at Tokyo station .OFUNA NARITA AIRPORT AIRPORT TERMINAL 2 4,500 5,990 YOKOHAMA NARITA AIRPORTAIRPORT TERMINAL 2 4,180 5,670 OMIYA NARITA AIRPORTAIRPORT TERMINAL 2 3,740 5,230 IKEBUKUROSHINJUKU NARITA AIRPORT AIRPORT TERMINAL 2 3,110 4,600 TOKYO NARITA AIRPORTAIRPORT TERMINAL 2 2,940 4,430 THAT IS FOR ORDINARY AND GREEN CARS
THE GREAT THING ABOUT THE "SUICA CARD " IS THAT IT COVERS A LOT OF MODES OF TRANSPORTATION...SUCH AS CITY BUSES...SUBWAYS AND TRAINS AND ALSO IT AND A NEX CARD GET YOU ON THE NARITA EXPRESS..ALSO GOOD ON THE KESEI TRAIN...As of March 18, 2007, all of Tokyo's trains and subways can finally be used with a single ticket: the Suica or PASMO prepaid card. Before, travelers had to deal with two incompatible prepaid card systems: Suica (for JR trains) and Passnet (for subways and other non-JR trains). Suica/PASMO cards can be purchased at vending machines and ticket counters in railway stations of Japan Railways (Suica) and other railway companies (PASMO) in the Greater Tokyo region. The initial cost consists of a refundable deposit of 500 Yen plus an initial amount to be charged onto the card. The initial amount is 1500 Yen in case of Suica and between 500 and 9500 Yen in case of PASMO.At...
A SUPER WAY TO GET TO TOKYO. .NOT AS FAST OR AS EXPENSIVE AS THE NARITA EXPRESS.. BUT A FABULOUS%c WAY TO TRAVEL..... ..Airport express, Skyliner connects Narita Airport directly with downtown. It takes 51 minutes from Nippori Station, and 56 minutes from Keisei Ueno Station. Trains depart every 40 minutes .All seats are reserved. You can relax in a reclining seat with a footrest.

Telephone corner(5th car) Card public phone is equipped (It can send a call, but cannot receive an incoming call.) The phone is available between Nippori and Narita.
The Narita Express (NE'X) is the most convenient way to get from Narita Airport to Tokyo Station. For a little extra money, the train can also take you to Ikebukuro, Shinjuku, Yokohama and a few other locations. Tokyo Station is the main hub of all the JR trains, metro and subway lines in Tokyo-to, so from here it is easy to find other ways to get to your final destination.The price for a regular ticket on the Narita Express to Tokyo Station is a little less than US $30, or 2,900+ yen. Tickets can be purchased at the automated kiosks near the turnstyles upon leaving Narita's customs checkpoint. The train runs a few times per hour in peak travel times and all other times at least once an hour. The travel time from Narita Airport to Tokyo averages about 1 hour.
