Narita and Haneda Airport Transfers in Tokyo
Part of the Tokyo travel guide — see every topic in All Tokyo Guides.
Tokyo has two big airports. Haneda (HND) is close, about 15 km south of the centre, so most rides take 15–40 minutes. Narita (NRT) is far, about 60–70 km east, so plan 40–90 minutes. Fares below are 2026 adult prices; IC-card fares are a few yen lower.
From Haneda by train
The Keikyu line runs from all three Haneda terminals to Shinagawa in about 13–15 minutes, for about ¥330. Many Keikyu trains continue without a change onto the Toei Asakusa line to Nihombashi and Asakusa. The Tokyo Monorail goes to Hamamatsucho in about 13–18 minutes for about ¥520; change there to the JR Yamanote line. Shinagawa is better for Shibuya, Shinjuku and the bullet train; Hamamatsucho is better for Ginza, Tokyo Station and Odaiba.
From Narita by train
The Keisei Skyliner is the fastest train to Nippori (about 36–40 minutes) and Ueno (about 41–45 minutes), for about ¥2,500–2,600 with a reserved seat. The JR Narita Express (N'EX) reaches Tokyo Station in about 55–60 minutes and continues to Shinagawa, Shibuya and Shinjuku, for about ¥3,100–3,400 one way. Visitors with a foreign passport can buy a N'EX round-trip ticket for about ¥5,200. The cheapest trains are Keisei's Access Express and main-line limited express: about ¥1,100–1,300 and 60–80 minutes.
Buses and taxis
Buses are easy with big bags. From Narita, low-cost buses to Tokyo Station and Ginza cost about ¥1,300–1,500 and take 60–90 minutes. Airport Limousine buses stop at big hotels and stations such as Shinjuku: about ¥1,000–1,800 from Haneda and ¥3,000–3,700 from Narita. A taxi from Haneda to the central wards costs about ¥6,000–12,000, more late at night. From Narita, fixed-fare taxis to central Tokyo cost about ¥20,000–30,000.
Late arrivals and IC cards
Trains stop around midnight. Haneda has taxis all night and a few late-night buses at higher fares. If you land at Narita after about 22:30, check the last Skyliner and N'EX before you land, or book an airport hotel. Buy a Welcome Suica (for visitors, valid 28 days) or a normal Suica or PASMO at the airport, or add Suica to your phone wallet. One card works on almost every train, bus and convenience store in Tokyo.
